It can be done, LTC Ivan Raiklin, Esq.. Almost every major country in the world has taken some of our materiel at one time or another and reverse engineered or adapted it. No reason for us to not do the same if works to our advantage.

I have no issues. We have the 249 SAW and the 240B from the French already. We should use what works best and your recommendation should be followed.
