With more soldiers speaking up about its flaws and shortcomings and major programs like the M10 Booker getting killed off, it isn't crazy to think that the M7 could face the executioner like so many M16 and M4 replacements that came before it.
We examine a recent report ripping the rifle to pieces, how Sig Sauer and the Army are responding, and what this could mean for the Army's latest attempt to replace the M4.
