POTD: Putting The XM7 To The Test At Fort Campbell
Photo Of The Day and we’re looking at Maj. Jonathon Bless as he tests the optics on the XM7 rifle at Fort Campbell, Kentucky. This side-view really shows how big of a beast the XM7 is. As regular readers of TFB surely know by now, the XM7 is a part of the U.S. Army's Next Generation Squad Weapon (NGSW) program. Designed by SIG Sauer, the XM7 is a 6.8mm rifle meant to replace the M4 and other legacy rifles, offering greater firepower and range. The XM7 is often paired with the advanced XM157 Fire Control System, which integrates optics and ballistic calculation to assist soldiers in acquiring targets with precision.
