mwgfghost Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Hey I'm sure you all know this by now but when I did a search for "XM8 Cancelled" on the forums, it came up with nothing. But yeah I just found out that the XM8 Program was cancelled which is SUH-WEET! I hated the look of that piece of dook. Looked way too futuristic and dooktastic. But yeah just wanted to express my hate for the XM8. May it die of gonorrhea and rot in hell. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foxtrot360 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 (edited) Yeah, it wasnt the best looking gun I've seen. In a way it was kinda ugly. Edited March 22, 2007 by Foxtrot360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mwgfghost Posted March 22, 2007 Author Share Posted March 22, 2007 Yeah unfortunately I heard it was "temporarily cancelled" Need to make it permanent cause I really would never ever like to use that gun unless we fought on the moon. I'll take my chances unjamming an M16 that was tossed in the mud over using an M8. It's cool if they can make it lightweight and all but I like the models of today's assault rifles. All blacked out M4's and M16's And also Barrett's M468. Anybody hear if they're gonna be issuing that gun to the conventional military anytime soon? Or do they still need to work out some kinks with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sairus Posted March 27, 2007 Share Posted March 27, 2007 Well it look futuristic now but I like it. It's the inside that matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RooK Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 Well it look futuristic now but I like it. It's the inside that matters. If that was true, we would have been testing the G36 instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max415 Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 I think the G36 would be a fine replacement to the M-16s and M4s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whistle Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 well the m8 was basically just a g36 with some different external stuff. the only bad thing about the g36 family is those magazines with the stacking shenanigans on the side cut down your carrying capacity of mags in pouches.

Militiaman Posted April 15, 2007 Share Posted April 15, 2007 I am wondering how long it is going to take the Army to realize that the Mark 16 and Mark 17 (Special Forces Combat Assault Rifle) are better weapons than the M-16 or M-4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
