Title: 6 Years Since the SEALs capped bin Laden
Post by: quiller on May 03, 2017, 05:41:00 AM
It's been six years since Seal Team 6 put down Osama bin Laden, and now the timetable of events and also the story behind the gun which performed that happy task...

QuoteHeckler and Koch developed the HK416 for U.S. special operations forces as a major product improvement of M4/M16-type carbines and rifles. Using the HK-proprietary gas piston system found on the G36, the HK416 does not introduce propellant gases and carbon fouling back into the weapon's interior, making it the most reliable of any M4/M16 type weapon.

    The HK416 has been combat-proven in Southwest Asia and has also gained worldwide attention of military, law enforcement, and security users. In April 2007, the HK416 was selected as the new Norwegian Army rifle. The 10.4 inch barrel model is the shortest, most compact variant and is widely used by special operations, law enforcement, and military units worldwide.
