[QUOTE="SMS, post: 1856517, member: 42"] Actually, if what I've read is correct, this pistol is derived from a requirement that was written 13 years ago and previously shelved due to failures. Recent retirements and changes in the procurement arena allowed someone to shove their pet project through. In other words, it's highly likely, being 13 years old, that very few people currently serving at the tip of the MARSOC spear had any say in this particular pistol being fielded. Rumor and speculation, sure, but relevant to the comments about "they picked it". [/QUOTE]
