It all sounds good. But if they actually think they're going to get a guaranteed gun that shoots under MOA, (5" groups at 600 yards guaranteed), they're going to be paying a hell of a lot more than $642.00 a gun. They better give Les Baer a call........ And get out their checkbooks.

I think it's a mistake replacing all M16s with M4A1s no matter how good they are. M16s are a better solution to most problems and the longer barrel makes the most of the anemic ammo.

Actually, from experience, sometimes winning government contracts is a very unlucky thing. The companies that make money only do so in the long run with add-ons, modifications and followup contracts. I don't think initial contracts by themselves ever pan out.
