  • To See Which Assault Rifle Can Best Withstand the Rigors of the Sandbox, the Army Conducted a “Dust Test” Between the M4, SCAR, 416 and XM-8
    By David Crane Photos courtesy U.S. Army olt’s M4 carbine came in dead last in an “Extreme Dust Test” (EDT) con- ducted in the fall of 2007 that pitted the current-issue carbine against the FN’s Mk16 (SCAR-Light), HK’s 416, and HK’s XM8. The impetus for the test, the second dust test con- ducted on the M4 in the same year (2007), was CSen. Tom Coburn (R-Okla.), who believed that more reliable assault rifles and carbines than the M4 existed and should be compared to the M4 before the U.S. Army issued an approxi- mately $375-million sole-source procurement contract to Colt. In April 2007, Sen. Coburn stated in a letter, “I am concerned with the Army’s plans to procure nearly half a million new rifles outside of any competitive process.” So, Coburn asked that the Army hold a “…free and open competition.” Accordingly, the U.S. Army Test and Evalu- ation Center (ATEC) team tested 10 sample guns of each weapon system, 40 guns total, and exposed them all to 25 hours of “dusting.” Dust testing consisted of each rifle getting a heavy dose of lubricant, the muzzle being capped, and the ejection port cover closed. Then, each weapon was exposed to a heavy dust environment in a dust chamber for 30 minutes. After the dust bath, a tester fired 120 rounds through each weapon. Then, back in the dust To see which assault rifle can best withstand the rigors of the sandbox, the Army conducted a “dust test” between the M4, SCAR, 416 and XM-8.
