The Army's M-4 Carbine: Background and Issues for Congress
The Army’s M-4 Carbine: Background and Issues for Congress Andrew Feickert Specialist in Military Ground Forces June 8, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RS22888 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress The Army’s M-4 Carbine: Background and Issues for Congress Summary The M-4 carbine is the Army’s primary individual combat weapon for infantry units. While there have been concerns raised by some about the M-4’s reliability and lethality, some studies suggest that the M-4 is performing well and is viewed favorably by users. The Army is undertaking both the M4 Carbine Improvement Program and the Individual Carbine Competition, the former to identify ways to improve the current weapon, and the latter to conduct an open competition among small arms manufacturers for a follow-on weapon. An integrated product team comprising representatives from the Infantry Center; the Armament, Research, Development, and Engineering Center; the Program Executive Office Soldier; and each of the armed services will assess proposed improvements to the M4. The proposal for the industry-wide competition is currently before the Joint Requirements Oversight Council, and with the anticipated approval, solicitation for industry submissions could begin this fall. It is expected, however, that a selection for a follow-on weapon will not occur before FY2013, and that fielding of a new weapon would take an additional three to four years. This report will be updated as events warrant. Congressional Research Service The -

The MRX Bison is a bolt action rifle built on our MRX Supershort action, which is available in 5.56N, 300BLK and 7.62x39 . The rifle is designed to bridge the gap between accuracy, mobility and AR15 compatibility, which creates the ultimate compact bolt action rifle for the ranch, range or backcountry. A true “Canadian Made” scout rifle. The MRX Bison is the only post-ban firearm that accepts AR15 magazines and has a non-restricted FRT classification issued by the RCMP (#196461). The MRX Bison will allow operators to use any AR15 stock, grip or magazine and it weighs in at 6.9 pounds, offering bolt action accuracy in a compact and lightweight package. The MRX Bison is available in two configurations, the “scout” and the “ranger.” The scout is a true short barreled scout rifle with a full shroud for mounting optics, short range red dot sights and magnifiers. The “ranger” is a light hunting rifle that has the ability to shoot to 1 MOA accuracy and has a picatinny rail attached to the top of the action for mounting scope rings or quick release mounts.
