    What is also interesting is the rifle the Brit SAS specied from Diemco , they went with a heavier and longer barrel than the std M4 , for improved reliability & accuracy , maybe all those M203/HK320s where bending the lite M4 barrels .
    For those that donot know the barrels made by Diemco , where coldhammer forged & cromelined , as such they last 2-3x longer than a std USA M4 barrel , so thats 10k for the US variants & 30k for the Canadian M16s , thats a bit of a difference .
    The Dutch who brought a boat load of Canadian M16/M4 rifles , now re-arming with new HK416 variants .
    At the moment , most Armies have a 7.62x51mm AR10 type rifle in service as a DMR , and its either a SR-25 , LMT or a HK417 , and at the moment the last 2 are the most used variants .

    Later Chris
