... and those are all 5.56 NATO!
Mpt 55 looks very AR to me
True.
It does have a star and crescent stamped (etched? printed?) on it though =P
Here, does this look too AR 15 to you?
Yes a lot. This is the Spear right? I recently watched a lot of stuff about it. It's very cool. Besides the bolt spring the rest is AR platform. Same buttons same everything. Even they added an AR charging handle because the testing soldiers asked for it.
The interiors are full AR like. Same bolt with same locking mechanism. Standardized mags, same kind of disassembly.
They basically just changes the bolt spring location, from the stock to the too of the bolt (similar to an AK).
Why does this look like you’re building loadouts for Modern Warfare 3?
Because the whole meme is about the lack of standardization amongst primary infantry battle rifles within NATO (or NATO allies).
So, I continued with Belgium, Australia, Japan and Turkey.
