Yeah, rappel right through the window :D

OR! Imagine this!
You're riding on the back of this:

With a USSR flag, with this playing in the background:

And you roll through the gym where everyone has assembled for something, and as you reach the center, the cannon shoots! And almost in unison, AA guns are streaming bullets across the sky, as Antonovs and HINDS soar! And you yell into the microphone: "HAVE NO FEAR! THE RED BEAR IS HERE!"

What do you guys think of this thing? Posted Image

It's called the M27 IAR. The US Marine Corps is starting to phase this in in place of the M249 SAW. Now I have never shot this thing myself, I was getting out as people were starting to get issued this, but from what I have heard from guys who have used it in combat over in Afgan is that this thing is bad fucking ass. It's hard to believe because it looks like a damn M4, but this thing apparently can shoot 1000 rounds out of this thing never jam and when you take it apart it looks like you fired maybe 5 rounds out of it. If anyone has any exp with the SAW you know that despite it being bad ass, it's only good and reliable if you clean the shit out of it. Apparently this thing is crazy accurate as well, more so than the SAW. And of course its not as damn heavy.

Just so you guys know a basic Marine squad is supposed to have 13 guys (3teams) one of which carries a SAW or in this case now some a IAR in every 4 man team (sometimes one guy can even have a M240B)

The A4? Nice!

About the M27 IAR, it is derived off of the HK M416, which is, in turn, derived from the G36 and M4, so that's why it looks so. A badass weapon indeed.

Yeah, I can't help but want to throw up the bullshit flag because as you can see it only has a 30 round mag (they are coming out with a 100round drum I guess) but even then I would think that firepower from the SAW with that 200 round drum would be more effective... but like I said guys who have used it in combat insist that the accuracy makes up for the decrease in firepower so you can't overlook that. Of course the Army turned down the IAR, but what the fuck do they know anyway? :cool:

I'm from Kubinka, but I've always wanted to be a pilot in the USAF, or a marksman in the USMC. :cool:

It's cheap, extremely effective, accurate, never jams and is practically indestructible. Of course, it's also Russian made. :cool:
