Canadian modular assault rifle project, a C7 replacement?

That's the job of dets in the platoon or, even more appropriately, the company.

100 percent this. The section is an element of a platoon and isnt going to be off isolated doing it's own thing without support.

Doesn't work like that, well, not at a cost the GOC would be able to afford any time soon.

Probably why a lot is being dropped with GD OTS on the new round

Carrying a couple 870 12ga shotguns in a section seems more relevant than DMR rifles now days - especially if we're going to be putting 6x or 10x optics on rifles.

I think that's too much for a section commander to be concerned with. Perhaps a micro UAS to peak around the corner, but otherwise you are getting away what a section should be focused on, which is direct fire engagements at 100m or less.

100% this. A section commander has enough on their hands already.

And because there's actually nothing really out on this, anyone know what the solution is going to be with the M203s? Figure they'll just drop them into a standalone kit and call it a day.

If only there was a stand alone launcher out there.
