I would also prefer the Magpul Masada (Bushmaster ACR). It’s low recoiled, and can hold 5.56x45 NATO and 7.26x39.

Didn’t say it was a “tactical school”. I simply made mention of the fact that every time I see a video of someone testing a weapon or a group of people shooting they seem to have an “overabundance of mass”. Hey if that guy is Special Forces and can get the job done who cares. I just never see slim people firing weapons.
As for my shooting ability. Have you ever seen me shoot? And who evacuated their bladder in your Cheerios?

I would prefer the Masada from MagPul in 6.8 cal.

So far as the kick goes, that was the 5.56 x 45 Mk16.
So far as the 380 lbs pile of chewed bubblegum goes, hey, what can I say. There’s strong and then there’s ‘Army Strong’.
Still, I hope we get the Mk17s, not a fan of 5.56 for stopping anything bigger than a large rabbit. Character flaw, I guess.…..

Hmmm, it seems to have a lot of kick. Then again it is a 7.62. I wonder if the barrel changing ability diminishes accuracy. Since it is a locked in rather than a solid barrel. I guess we will see, but lighter and more power is always better!

You don’t need to be heavy to effectively use a 7.62 SCAR. It looks a lot easier to control and carry than the M-14 of my understanding and with the swap out barrels, it’s a winner.

WJS, this is not a tactical school. That individual was a part of a Special Forces group due to leave for overseas soon. He might be overweight but my guess is he can shoot better than you.

Can we please ever see a gun or tactical school demonstration where the shooter does not weigh 380 lbs?
