caseless, much like bullpup configuration, is a meme that is slowly dying out as people realize it doesn't work

>>34240798
Caseless is still being actively studied by the military, and telescoping rounds are in trials at this point, unlike your dead cartridge

>improvements are a meme
You should get a job with the DOD

more efficient powders for smaller cases and higher mag capacity will come about centuries before practical caseless, mark my fucking words

>>34240898
Telescoping rounds are the next thing, which is kinda similar to what you are defending so that's your win I guess

LSAT program dropped caseless way back in 2011, get with the times breh.

I thought it got shunted to a side program? I guess I'll actually have to do some research instead of shitposting

Looked at some company brochures, no mention of caseless, quite a lot of hype for telescoping. Guess it did get dropped or backroomed.

recoil mitigation. screencap this post.

how the fuck are sabots with a greater diameter than conventional brass supposed to be weight saving and space saving? You expect them to go in sideways like a P90 or G11?
