U.S. Army covered up failures of faulty rifle for more than a decade. As if it’s not bad enough sending men over there with rules of engagement so restrictive they can’t do their jobs, we also give them a rifle that jams as soon as they’re in a firefight. The money quote:

“Why does the world’s greatest superpower have less capable small arms than the enemy? For whatever reasons, we are perfectly happy to give soldiers and Marines crappy small arms and not pay any attention to it.”
