No problem with that,there is no such thing as overkill.
How can you see a 1911 and not identify a problem instantly?
the most powerful handgun in existence.
There is only "open fire" and "I need to reload".
So... About that thing I was drawing up blueprints for...

Had the pleasure of taking this bad boy to the range:

That HK-slap.
Despite it being heavy AF you feel like such a badass doing the HK-slap, going prone and firing.
How's the accuracy for you? Did you zero the irons as well, or just the red dot?
And what the hell are those cuts I see on the bolt carrier?
The irons are just little crappy backup sights on top of the optic, It doesn't look like they move. You'd have a hard time zeroing those.

The lines on the bolt carrier are the 'forward assist' found on some G3 variants. You jam your thumb in there and the lines help you grip it as you push it forward.
I have a feeling that forward assist wouldn't do much good. If that thing doesn't want to go into battery, it's not going into battery.
And looking back at the picture, I just realized that rifle doesn't have the irons you usually see on G3s. No front sight post, no rear drum. What the fuck.
We don't use that feature unless we need to ready the weapon silently, in which case you lead the bolt back with your hand instead or doing a slap. You need to use a thumb to get the bolt properly closed.
Makes sense. A rifle is always going to beat a pistol in controllability.
I dunno if I like the idea of relying on irons that aren't directly mounted to the rifle though. What if the optic gets lost? Of course, Aimpoint makes some really solid mounting systems, and I'd be surprised if they don't make you 550-cord it to the rifle, so maybe that's enough.
Cool rifle regardless.
It's 2018, relying on your optics is a perfectly reasonable thing to do

Colt Canada MRR, a potential replacement for the C7A2 that the Canadian Forces have been using for a while.
I suppose. They really have come a long way in the past 40 years.
Aimpoint really does deserve credit as one of the finest optic makers out there. The CompM4 we use is really goddamn solid, mounts easy and can run for literal years without being turned off. Oh, and the newest versions take AA batteries, so keeping it running is not a problem at all.
Yeah that's what I expected. Forward assists don't really do much to fix jams since if the bolt isn't closing then you pretty much always want to pull the bolt back to either clear the obstruction, or to give it more spring force pushing on it. I recall the forward assists HK included on PSG1s were specifically referred to as "silent bolt closing devices".
The only use I can really see for a forward assist is when it comes to fixing jams resulting from a lack of lubrication. A couple years ago we were out on the range and my M16 failed to go into battery a couple of times because it was bone-dry and the supply people were hoarding all the CLP. I ended up just yanking the charging handle back out of habit, which cleared the jam anyway, but it ended up costing me points on the qualification.
I suppose it'd also be useful if you wanted to chamber a round without the firing pin impacting on the primer. Not generally a huge concern, but if you're chambering the same few rounds over and over again continuously as you go on-duty, it could gradually ruin the primers and cause a misfire.
Ironsights > optics
The Danish guys here use a rifle that looks exactly like that.
i wish they had funner guns at ranges here. it's super expensive to shoot guns here though. one in brisbane you can shoot a .44 deagle but its $99 per magazine of 8 rounds.
Or go and get your gun licence so you don't get riped off by those ranges.
yeah but can a civilian get a license to own a .44 handgun?
Sure, .44 blackpowder revolver. And depending on the state you don't even need a licence for ones that count as antique.
Metallic silhouette will let you have a handgun up to 45cal of any type. Cowboy action will let you have blackpowder metallic cartridge handguns up to 45ACP as well. If you're made of money you could also get a desert eagle chambered in a 44mag to 38cal wildcat and get it on a standard handgun licence.
I think we use the C8 IUR

Same overall rifle, but the MMR looks to be a weight-reduction modification with the heavy rails up front replaced by MLOK slots.
