Heh...Holy...sh&t....Linux is gods gift to the people...we know, over and over again....we know. The real deal is the Army as a whole will never see anything like this. We've had our same long ass M16 for the last 40 years and we are going to have it for a lot longer. There's like what 10 different peices to this thing? It definitely isn't getting issued out to regular Army...maybe small off shoots of groups that don't officially exist and to private military contracts but definitely not to the Army as a whole.

They're not even adopting the XM-8 anymore. Land Warrior may wind up being some sort of PDA in the end, not something attached to a rifle.
