The U.S. Army’s newest rifle, the M7, was supposed to be the future of American infantry. Powerful, modern, and firing a brand-new 6.8x51mm round, it promised to replace the M4 Carbine and redefine close combat for decades to come.
But recently, the Army shocked the defense world by pulling the M7 from independent testing under DOT&E—the very watchdog created to prevent past disasters like the early M16 failures in Vietnam. Why did they do it? What risks are being ignored? And what does this mean for the soldiers who will rely on this weapon in battle?
