As a matter of fact, I did get to play with the H&K M-16/M-4, and several XM-8 variants.
Liked the gas system and the steel mags of the H&K M-4, two weak points of the AR-15/M-16 systems.
I also was priviliged to watch Sinister Dave, Vickers, and a couple of other guys go at it in the H&K booth over the merits of the various systems. Learned quite a bit.
The 6.8 has no military future, IMHO. Didn't work too well at the Barrett demo, either. Has the potential to be a good LE caliber.
I must be old school, I would never offer a demo on a system that I hadn't personally tested that day, with that ammo, in that configuration, on that range, and could bet my life on.
Just my .02.
