at drill this weekend, we got new gear for our M4s. we got knights armament rails installed, and some knights armament fore-grips. we got TRGear flightlight mounts, M203A2s, and some stupid new collapsable stock, too.
the rail system is kinda cool, but I'm not sure just how useful it will be.
the fore-grips could be cool, but definitely will take some getting used to.
the flashlight holders are dumb, but they can old knives, too, so you could use two or three bayonets if you wanted, I guess.
the new 203s are pretty neat, b/c now our 203 gunners don't have to carry M16A2s, but can use M4s. they're also user-removable, so now we have more stuff for joe to clean.
the new buttstocks are useless. they're more similar to an A2 buttstock, but it's still collapseable. the dumbest thing is they put the sling mount back on the bottom, which nobody is going to use because it's better on top anyway. the old ones worked just fine.
