They brought them is to phase out the saw so all of the ones we currently have are full auto but I have a feeling once they introduce them to every infantryman they will be 3 round burst.

"According to AFCEA (Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association), the USMC “will be purchasing up to 15,000 M27 Infantry Automatic Rifles (IAR) and spare parts from Heckler and Koch "

I would have thought it would take more than 15,000 gunz to replace our M4s.

Are we fixing to quit issuing rifles to the Infantry?

What I read is that the HK will be issued to the Infantry only. All other Marines will retain the current M4.

I hope that is the same quality and standards of Heckler Koch in Germany..I miss my HKMP5N

Even though they'll be American made the Quality Control will still be managed by Germans just like the place I work so I wouldn't be concerned at all about quality.
