3375754 There's actually a version of the PP19 with a traditional magazine. It looks like a 9mm AK
3389473 Because that's the squad machine gun variant. The behind-mag grip is to help stabilize it with your shoulder. If you watch videos or look at photos of machine gunners, they usually have their left hand on top of the stock.
The XM8, a rifle that was looked at by the US military to replace the M4.
It was one the first rifles they looked into that was composed of Polymer. Despite being a lovely looking weapon, they apparently had troubles with the polymer handguard melting after prolonged firing in hot climates.
The project was eventually dropped by Congress because of the price, if I remember correctly.
The Congress doesn't like spending money on new weapons. Which is one of the reasons they pulled the HK416 from service despite supposedly being better than the M4.
I'm not sure on that. I don't think they did, since it was given the M designation. But it's technically a SAW rifle. But it's functionally the same an HK416.
3470441 because of the iron triangle. the arms companies pay congress members gigantic sums of money to renew and approve weapons contracts to the military regardless if the pentagon wants them. Hence why the marine corp got Ospreys even though they didn't need or want them.
Title says it all, show pics of guns which look strange.
HK VP 70:
Whatever you think of HnK's, you gotta admit this looks pretty cool... Too bad production ceased.
The SuperSoaker:
I don't give a fuck what this gun is actually called. I'll ALWAYS call it the SuperSoaker.

3375754
Fucking weirdest looking bulpup I've ever seen...

Depends, which one do you want?
3376194
...I've seen worse choices.
3376231
Not really, all I have to go by is aesthetics. I have no idea how they would perform under real world conditions.
DP-28 Russian Machinegun
WW1 Farquhar-Hill Rifle
Why is the grip BEHIND the magazine?

Yo, those Assault Rifles are pretty cool, but I like me some Battle Rifles despite looking slightly odd...
3389708
Battle Rifles > Assault Rifles
3389714 I would've posted a real weapon that looks fucking unsual, but decided to also post a UNSC weapon.
Battle Rifles are pretty cool, but it doesn't mean I don't like Assault Rifles. Just prefer them in most scenarios.
3376125 That's a fishgun.
3375754 What about the ROuS's
Rifles of unusual size.
3468122
How?
3468168 not to be confused with the rockets or rats of unusual size.
3376157 i love that the dog has its own spotter scope.
Another strange one. Whenever I see one I think of a Mako shark.
This strange breed.

Wasn't that supposed to replace the M4 but they cancelled it
3469212 probably. with the Iron Triangle, I doubt that the M4 will be replaced unless we start using laser based weaponry.
3469218
And lasguns may take awhile

3469605 wait, congress decided to not spend money on shit nobody needs?

Hold on, I'll ask my brother.

That's some ugly ass shit.
He says it's still being used.
