    I think we should start a thread on the best titles for Chad... My favorite so far:

    1. Lord Chad
    2. General Chadwick

    :rolleyes:

    I got an infraction for insulting others so I'll keep my thoughts to myself. LOL.

    You aren't the only one that got nicked for that one thread... :innocent0

    But I will say that I'm wondering if somebody is going to invoke Chadwin's Law...

    I'm only a civilian. But since I pay taxes, I'm not ecstatic about seeing money going to a foreign company. With all the industry knowledge and familiarity with the AR, M4, M16, can't something just as good be produced domestically and cheaper?

    H&K will build a Factory in the US so they Can be American Made, just Like Beretta and FN...and SIG as well.

    M17=Sig Sauer
    M240 =FN
    M249=FN
    M27=HK
    M9=Beretta
    M777=BAE
    AV8 Harrier=Originally developed by UK manufacturer Hawker Siddeley.

    Glad my 0311’s are being thought of.

    I can remember being issued a blood stained flak jacket with bullet holes because there were no new ones available. Corps grunts are instilled in them not to complain so I didn’t.

    Regardless of branch the combat arms folks deserve the best regardless of cost. Issue the crap to those in the rear with the gear.

    H&K has had a factory in the US for a long, long time.

    Yea but from what I read these will be made in Germany.

    Also sounds like they have a bunch of problems with service life including literally being destroyed by the new m855a1 ammo?
