[@weaponeer]

As a master armorer and weapon designer for 37 years (and disabled veteran with 18 years US Army service), I'm overjoyed that B&T SCW won the contract, and that the US once again has an SMG. as an armorer, I had fired and worked on the M3A1 Grease Gun for 15 years (my service ended 2002). while a suppress M3A1 is very hard to beat (only bolt noise), it's a very heavy weapon with very basic sights, and it has rather large stampings so it's not compact, and typically in the way when you are working. Our two M88's at the time had brackets welded to the hull to carry them so it was the only comfortable time you had with them. was it reliable? very, but it was dated and we were overdue for a replacement. for our crews in the tracks and armored vehicles, this will be a much-needed upgrade because of the size of the B&T SMG. with the stock collapsed, you can stick it out a hatch and fire simple using the viewports to correct your aim while you stay safe. the M4 series is fine for a personal weapon for some crew but an SMG is pretty much purpose-built for most tracked and armored vehicle crews. the B&T SMG is a great design which I have followed for years and it's NEARLY perfect. I would love to test, abuse and review the APC9K. I hope they make a couple changes to the B&T SMG (maybe enhancements is a better term) before they are used in combat. otherwise, it's the best SMG the US has ever had, which is a big statement because I love the Thompson SMG (you can write your name with it) but the B&T SMG can fit in a drop down holster to finally keep your hand free. way to go B&T!

[@BlackWolf18C]

Considering the near-universal role that automatic weapons have in the modern infantry unit, and the Heller v DC decision saying that the Second Amendment is for the general ownership of weapons like those used by an infantry unit, does that not mean that the Supreme Court has already laid the groundwork for the repeal of the NFA? It seems to be the logical conclusion that the type of arms employed by the general Infantry in every modern armed force around the globe are specifically what the Second Amendment protects. In the modern era, that weapon is the automatic firearm. Aside from sidearms, nearly every firearm the Infantry of the globe employ are at least capable of automatic fire and rapid reloading. Fully automatic capability has become ubiquitous and standard, and is therefore protected by the Second Amendment by all metrics ever laid down by the Supreme Court. Imagine the screeching when we declare that, yes, the Second Amendment does in fact protect our right to own machine guns of all types. Imagine the screeching when we demand to own newly developed electromagnetic rifles capable of firing projectiles at hypersonic velocities. That's only a matter of a few decades away at this point. Isn't a written declaration of principles fun?

[@benton0311]

I think this is a sweet SMG and by all accounts, B&Ts build quality and engineering surpass even H&Ks. So great from the perspective of “another tool in the tool box” and a superb one at that but... 1. Despite all of the publicity and fanfare, this SMG contract is so small it is almost nonexistent, less than a blip on the scope of one branch’s small arms procurement. A few thousand copies for military PSD teams, themselves of often questioned utility. 2. SEALs, SF, and Force have all had various iterations of MP5s in their arsenals for decades. Sure most units over the past 20 years have primarily switched to M4/Mk18 for most uses but the guns should still be there. I worked with Army PSD teams in Afghanistan who also carried MP5s. The SMG was not a completely abandoned concept, just that it’s utility was limited to a few niche purposes. The B&T SMG will see far more limited issuance than the MP5 and there will still be more MP5s DOD wide than the B&T SMG after this procurement vehicle is fully executed. 3. While it’s still nice to see DoD procuring top-quality guns, it’s troubling from the perspective of a tax payer that the Army decided to run new trials and issue purchase orders for a brand new SMG for small, non-special-operations and very non-critical units while the existing inventory of MP5s is left sitting in depot level armories completely forgotten and collecting rust. Is this SMG better than an MP5? Probably, at least from everything I’ve seen so far. Are the units that will be using it at a level of proficiency or subject to a mission profile that warrants having the avant guard of SMG design? Operationally, would they know the difference? No, I don’t think they will so why buy a new SMG for this limited, non-critical purpose instead of dusting off existing MP5s. 4. This SMG is designed for a very limited purpose, even more so than a Mk18 is utilized PDW/CQB/VBSS so this it can’t really be compared to something in that category. The Mk18 still packs a pretty good punch at CQB ranges while giving effects on an area target (buying time to disengage) past 200m. The benefit to this or an MP5k/PDW is that they can be easily concealed under a 5.11 vest with the short mags. For those that have never done it, it’s not that people don’t know you’re armed, but for political purposes (especially in front of the media) you can not be overtly armed. The downside is that full auto, even out of a controllable SMG, is not conducive to minimizing collateral damage in an environment almost certainly occupied by a large number of civilian non-combatants. Long story short, phenomenal SMG but I really can’t find a good reason for why the Army bought it.

If a fully loaded magazine sits around for a few years, is it still a fresh magazine? /s

[@Jordan-nc3zy]

Matt Jones Springs wear out with use, so compression and expansion cycles, meaning that the springs in loaded mags that sit around are going to be fine. Feed lips are a little different. As long as the stress in the lips from the rounds being pushed up and out of the magazine is below the yield stress of the lip material, the lips are fine. For aluminum mag lips, I would like to see this tested as well, but for lancer mags’ steel feed lips, there are no issues there. For pmag type polymer lips, the polymer behaves differently than metal and, instead of yielding and bending out of shape, they crack when they fail, so it is easy to tell when pmags should be retired.

When I was in the army in 85 at Stork barracks in Germany the tank units had grease guns and they were super cool. I was in a infantry unit next-door I never got the shoot them. But it’s always amazing were using something that all but then again I did carry 1911 at the time as a machine gunner.

[@Soulessdeeds]

I joined the Army in 95. Got to my first unit as a Bradley mechanic. I was assigned to the recovery sectioned. Went to the arms room and they issued me my side arm and a M3 grease gun. I was like WTF? It was still issued to M88 crews back then. 6 or so months later the M4's came in and I turned my M3 in. It was fun to shoot but not exaclty the safest safety I ever saw. But yeah still fun to shoot. But I was absolutely happy to get my M4.

The neutered version still has its merits and is better than a pistol alone. No problem registering it so I can put a K grip up front and maybe upgrade to select fire if it wins me over down the road. A weapon light is a must, not sure which to try with it yet, though.

[@wolfpack4694]

Cold warrior here. I fired the M3 grease gun a few times as a cadet as part of my M60A1 training. Cool looking, fun to shoot .45 ammo, but not accurate. It was however, really good at spitting a bunch of lead downrange for short range suppressive fire. Would have loved to have this modernized version in my OH-58 in the Air Cav.

Bill of Rights, Delegated Powers? "When government takes away citizens' right to bear arms it becomes citizens' duty to take away government's right to govern" - George Washington "If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so." - Thomas Jefferson “The general rule is that an unconstitutional statute, though having the form and the name of law, is in reality no law, but is wholly void and ineffective for any purpose since unconstitutionality dates from the time of its enactment and not merely from the date of the decision so branding it; an unconstitutional law, in legal contemplation, is as inoperative as if it had never been passed … An unconstitutional law is void.” (16 Am. Jur. 2d, Sec. 178) " We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, that to secure these rights governments are instituted among men. We...solemnly publish and declare, that these colonies are and of a right ought to be free and independent states...and for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honour. " Government cannot give you anything unless it has taken it from you beforehand. Government isnt a good thing and it boggles my mind why anyone would want more of it, every problem we have today is BECAUSE OF GOVERNMENT. We have jumped away from the Constitution and how the Government was supposed to function and turned it into a nanny state/police state and everyone is miserable because of it. The Constitution only OUTLINES our Rights, it does not give them and those Rights predate Government...so even if Government "outlaws" or "bans", or writes legislation up against the Second Amendment it is "Null and Void" and it is our Duty as Citizens to ignore Unjust Laws. The ATF are responsible for the Biggest Mass Shooting, Church Shooting, School Shooting....WACO They've had countless scandals and abuses of power from "Gunwalking" to "Fast and Furious" to intimidating business, keeping records illegally, money issues and more...The Agency itself is Unconstitutional as it exceeds Congress's Authority under the Commerce clause, even without the Second Amendment its still Unconstitutional....just like the NFA. The Constitution outlines that Taxes are Voluntary and cannot be used to undermine law, liberty, or Citizens Rights - The Registration System of Firearms is also Unlawful. If you are required to pay a tax and get a receipt that is, in effect, a license. They can simply refuse to take your money and issue you a receipt -- therefore, no license, and you are prohibited from owning them and they have done just that in other areas (New Jersey comes to mind). It is worth noting that 2A says "shall not be infringed". It does not say "shall not be prohibited", a Tax can be an infringement. Imagine if the tax wasn't $200 but it was $10,000 - that would make owning a Firearm listed by unobtainable for the masses. They are an Agency built on Unconstitutional intentions, extorting the population for the use of their own Rights. A $200 transfer tax (NFA) in 1934 is the equivalent of a $2,854 tax today, on top of fingerprinting and permission from the local head of law enforcement PER NFA Item. Imagine paying $2k to REGISTER to own a Suppressor or SBR, how is that not an infringement and it was one of the main provisions of the NFA...
