Army 'Excited' About New Subcompact Gun



Editorial comment from Billy Blogger: WHAT IN HELL IS THE ARMY TRYING TO PROVE? PRETTY DAMN SOON OUR TROOPS WILL BE CARRYING A PDW THAT HAS A "RED RYDER" LOGO.
Despite initial industry suspicion that the Army would let the effort die a slow death, the service is moving forward with the development of a compact weapon that shoots like a rifle but slings like a sub gun. ¶
According to the Army official in charge of fielding new weapons for the service, the search for a so-called "subcompact individual weapon system" is moving ahead in earnest. In May, the Army sponsored a user evaluation where Soldiers put subcompact weapons through their paces to see if the idea would stick.
