Man I hope so. Gimme some of the fancy super thin CRTs in my future space world please.

In the Halo series I'm expected to believe the UNSC still uses the exact same NATO standardized ammunition in their service rifles 500+ years in the future, but also believe the military finally moved on from AR-pattern rifles. Lol. Lmao.

@Hoss @Goalkeeper @synapsid @Eternal_Iratus I think that as humanity travels further away from Earth, it will fall back onto really old tech. They'll use muskets, and CRTs will be everywhere.

@Goalkeeper @Hoss @synapsid I remember back when the F2000, Vector, MP7, P90, AN94, etc... were the primary mythos of 2000s-early 2010s small-arms futurism. People actually thought those would be the weapons of the 20s and 30s but instead we're getting a more stale version of vanilla Arma 3 firearms.

@Hoss @Goalkeeper @synapsid I have nothing but love for Kel-Tec. Truly one of few companies out there that are still pushing for unique and innovative firearm designs.

They've made some stupid shit, but coming up with stupid designs is still better than resting on the laurels of last century's most successful firearm designers.

@Goalkeeper @synapsid I can see where you're coming from, but I personally think firearms designs declined around 2014ish when everything just devolved into AR clones.

Say what you want about Kel-Tec, but unlike most of the modern firearms industry they're still putting out novel designs.

I could say that about anything made after 1944

Meanwhile the XM7 looks mostly alright outside of a sketchy charging handle.

@Goalkeeper @synapsid The XM7 is an ugly looking zogslop rifle.

Why did Russia make the AK-12 which is just a shittier AK instead of keeping their AK-103 / AK-105 and just mass producing zenico machined gas tube rails and dust covers. Accomplishes the same exact goals (but better) and they can keep the cross platform compatibility which was the whole point of the AK 100 series to begin with
