That is righteous. It would also make for a kick ass replacement for the SAW. It would just need to be a 1/7 twist rate for military applications though. I must confess though that I do enjoy the 1/9 on my AR however.

I wish rusmilitary would/could import these. that would be great. if not the rifle then at least the side folder assembly. I have an slr106ur that has a 1/7 but was kind of wanting a 1/9 twist again for all the extra ammo I have. Not getting tight group with the 62g .223 and am going to move up to 75g .223

That would be nice. Yes I can imagine at certain ranges with 1/7 and heavier rounds it would open the group up a lil bit. 1/7 is a tighter turn and bleeds some of the energy off of the rounds fired. Fine for a 20 inch barrel but not so good for a 14 to 16 inch barrel where it can't fully burn the powder. So you prolly have either spin drift, bullet drop or both. Hard to say. My 1/9 M4 wannabe is pin point accurate with 62 grain though I gotta say that.
