The M249 (SAW) is as American as apple pie, Playboy magazines, and a fistfight between 2 drunken dads at a youth football game. When you think about the war on terror, the image that most likely pops up in your head, is the scene of a badass marine or soldier, 'getting some' during a fierce firefight in the hills of Afghanistan or desert of Iraq. It's nothing less than 100% pure Americana.

And because of it's cultural importance, it is our job, as Americans, or people who like badass weapons, to preserve this beautiful Light Machine gun. Currently the SAW is on it's way to be replaced by some weird shitty looking plastic stupid gun, called the XM250. First of all the gun is german, and we're americans. If the gun was so good, why aren't the germans using it?? Exactly.
Not even the krauts wanted to use this POS, and they arent even winners like we are. 2 world wars baby! The XM250 has a suppressor... and thats about it
the barrel moves back and forth inside of it's plastic foreskin mesh like a pump and fuck machine that your wife purchased in order to spice up her mundane life. It's ugly and i hate it. 

We must act now, and tell the military that they're being dumb dumbs, before we waste more taxpayer dollars on some garbage, over complicatedly designed item, just like we did with the UCP fiasco.
Also who are we fighting to cause us to change what wasnt broken? The Chinese? The Chinese are using old soviet Ak's from the 60s, i think we'll be fine.

The gun is on track to be partially replaced sometime this year, so let's take a stand, as Americans, and let us proclaim that if you're gonna waste our money, at least waste it on some cool shit!!!
