    If you can't win, hire the other company's engineering and design team.

    “According to Mr. Steimke’s representations, Sig was able to design and manufacture a competing .338 belt-fed machine gun in less than [18] months when it took GD-OTS more than a decade to develop and mature its impulse averaging and LMMG technology,” the court document states.

    ...and those are 22" uppers to better exploit the 6.5 CM long range potential. No more do-it-alls.

    That's an article from 5 years ago. I think that was an interim solution until the MRGG was done.

    It was an interim solution. The MRGG contract was awarded to Geissele last September.
