The smart rail stuff or the sights? Because the sights are by a totally different company. Smart rail durability and longevity is definitely something to worry about long term, but the fundamental mechanisms of the Textron designs should be fine.

SIG is a dead end in every respect. Textron is the favorite because it's the Army's baby and it has a ton of benefits in their ammo design: -Light weight -Smaller volume for packing -Push through extraction eliminates a number of problems with traditional ammo -Theoretically cheaper to make...

The NGSW is probably going to result in Textron winning and maybe True Velocity getting a big ammo contract for legacy systems. The Army has spent basically 15 years getting the LSAT/cased telescoped polymer ammo off the ground. This trial is a formality after the XM8 debacle, to make sure they...
