Talk:XM312

message: The anonymous editor from IP address 24.22.95.227 keeps changing the cyclic rate of fire spec. on this weapon from 230 to 260 rpm.  The latest data sheet from the manufacturer specifies 230 rpm, so unless this is pure vandalism, please could that person explain why they have better data than the manufacturer?

replies: text: 230? It's really that low? Wow. I can get a cyclic rate at least that high firing a Barrett semi-auto (230 per minute is less than 4 per second, and I can pull a trigger at least that fast). A weapon that fires that slowly is really supposed to replace the M2HB? — Red XIV (talk) 03:47, 10 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Cyclic rate

message: According to the text under the picture, the XM312 is expected to be deployed in 2008, and is (according to the text in a picture in the gallery) expected to replace the M2. However, the article clearly states in the top that it is unlikely to be adopted due to its incredibly low rate of fire (230-260 rounds a minute, which by the way needs to stop changing). This is incredibly misleading and confusing. I suggest we remove the text that states it will replace the M2 in 2008 in both pictures until we find a reliable source that states it will, one that can override the current source that states its unlikely.
Anyone agree?

replies: text: There was a recent article at DefenseNews.com talking about Picatinny's latest Lightweight 50 (LW50) machinegun solicitation.  While not mentioned specificly by name, it is clear that the discussion of GDATP's potential entry is describing the XM312.  http://www.defensenews.com/story.php?i=3398495&c=AME&s=LAN
