XM8. Make a civilian model while they're at it, that's not totally nerfed like the SL-8

but the XM8 was flawed and the plastic melted.

I thought the plastic problem was a fixable one (as in a bit of further R&D and change in materials could fix it).

It jammed a lot less than other leading guns in a dust firing test. Besides, I need my tactacool firearms fix.

or not make it out of fucking plastic in the first place,The G36 And MG36 had the exact same problems with both the fore ends and the trunnions.
or you could just be a fucking normal person and stick with M4A1s until Plasma weaponry and Caseless becomes prevelant

can fire most things between .308 and .357 Mag, and a fun extractor for rimmed and rimless

The problem was that the DOD didn't want it, and went through impressive lengths to make it fail. It only melted when it dumped beta mags in FA, which is entirely unrealistic. H&K just has a history of being fucked by the US Gov't.

I want a production model of this. With a 7 or 8 shot cylinder.

Of course they did. the American DOD are very patriotic by namesake. It's a bit harder for them to brainwash troops while you're arming them with foreign rifles even if they are sub-par and lead to troop deaths.

To be incredibly fair, they had, at the time, accepted the Beretta M9 as their standard service pistol. And it wasn't that it was foriegn, it's that it was H&K: Look back at the PTR-91 ban. There's a reason that H&K pretty much abandoned ever giving civilians any of their time and effort any more, with the exception of watered down versions of their military weapons.
