Like the compact bullpup layout, but the stackable 12g and 40mm grenade launcher make it one bulky piece of kit. Also, the optic height over bore is very, very high.
Can it replace Colt's C7? I know the Americans had a large bid between manufacturers to find a replacement for their M16, all of which came up short to Eugene Stoner's nearly 60 year old design. |
What an ugly weapon. I get that it may not end up looking like this, but holy hell. If that is the starting point.
I miss the beauty of the FN.
