Every year there are new calibers, new actions, optics, muzzle devices that get invented. There are incremental changes all the time. Countries that are on the cutting edge of firearm development constantly try new ideas. Just because they aren't implementing those ideas in a major scale, like rearming their whole military with a new rifle, doesn't mean they aren't ahead of you.I am aware. XM-7 is a recent development after 65 years of using M4/M16/AR15 derivatives. So my point remains true, major rifles changes don’t happen frequently.
XM-7 is a big leap forward but it is at least 10 years in the making. Before this we were discussing 6.5 Grendel, 6.8 SPC, .300 blackout etc.
Actually **** the rifle, if Iran could make a cartridge like this I would respect it. Because even Turkey can't.
We don't invent new shit, we follow in the footsteps of others. The difference between you and me is that I have the self awareness to realize this.
You have the delusions of grandeur.
