Haters of the Forward Assist Rejoice! For it has apparently been deleted on the newest iteration of the XM-7
Just more proof of the foolishness of the NGSW program.
how the Garand was one of the top 4 pieces of technology that won the war, on par with the Atom Bomb?
I love the M1 so much, and I really think it's the best infantry rifle of the war, but the US could have been going into Europe with Springfield 1903s for every rifleman, and it really would not have changed very much. The vast quantity of well supported Sherman tanks (and really, all the other big pieces of equipment and logistical splendor) was what counted the very most.
4-round revolving rocket launcher.
Absolute videogame gun, I want it.
I think that the Russians nicknamed those 'traumatic' pistols "Condom Blowers," which should give you an idea of how well regarded they are.
those magazines that go with every turkish 12ga look gross, i always wondered why they don't just take VEPR mags. i also wonder why motherfucker from MDArms stopped working on the double stack saiga mag...
They probably aren't tooled up to make Vepr mags, and they can't source them from the Russians if they want to sell them to Americans and Europeans. A double-stacked magazine for 12-Gauge shotgun shells seems like a nightmare, also, big cartridges with big rims, but with flat noses and a squishy plastic hulls.
IMO, tube magazines are the only solidly reliable kind of magazine you can do for the common shotgun shell, if people want automatic shotguns feeding from box mags, and which have the reliability of rifles, it really calls for either full brass shells, or an all new purpose made design, which people have tried, but it's difficult to get that shit to stick in the market.
an AR with two forward assists.
I'll buy twelve.
Custom automag pistol chambered in 8mm Kurtz (yes that 8mm Kurtz) using ammunition with reversed bullets.
That's nifty in a silly way, but that'd be a really limited novelty. It mirrors the AMT Automag III, which you could get in .30 Carbine, but .30 Carbine was cheap and abundant back then, while 7.92mm Kurz never was in the US.
Maybe if you're going full wildcat and you load it with a powder better suited for a relatively short barrel like this, it wouldn't JUST be noise and flash, but AR15 pistols already let you do noisy fireballs for cheap
I believe it operates not too dissimilarly to that of a minigun but with only one barrel.
So it's like an aircraft revolver cannon. Like a Gatling, each chamber takes turn taking steps through the cycle as the cylinder rotates, and through that you could reach very high cyclic rates.

The action was also supposed to function as a landmine ala the Pancor Jackhammer
That would make quite a lot less sense to me. On the Jackhammer, the revolver cylinders were intended as detachable magazines, but for the gun here, if it's supposed to feed from like a linked belt, or maybe a linkless feed, then this seems very pointless.
Neva bin dun befo!

The Steyr Solothurn MP34 (pictured), Lanchester, Sterling (also pictured), Swedish K, and the Uzi, all could take bayonets. and I'm sure what few SMGs which the Japs made in WW2 could also take bayonets.
Double Action 1911's designed by Seecamp
Looks like the Colt Double Eagle if Colt had put in more effort.
