  1. The best way to describe Swiss arms manufacturing tradition is to point out they made a milled version of the MG42.

  2. OK, I need to know about Furrer's toggle locked intermediate cartridge assault rifle. Because we're all thinking the same thing, "Look, you didn't say he designed one, but, come on! We know COL Toggle Lock wouldn't have missed the chance to toggle lock a true assault rifle. The man probably swapped out all the door latches in his house for toggle locks." 😂

  3. This is basically the futuristic assault rifle I envisioned (and doddled) as a kid as the "obvious" next step because you could get low in the prone. Of course, later on (when I was in the Army) I realized lefty soldiers exist, and carrying a semi-bullpup design with a "inboard" sidemounted long magazine is just going to keep punching you in the gut while.road marching or patrolling. 😂

  4. God, I wish the US had done the same thing with the bolt group on the M60 GPMG versus retaining the FG42/Lewis Gun rotating bolt.
