The Australian manufacturer's spec sheet for it:

And for the rails a Go-Go version:

Accuracy 60mm at 50m (5 round group)

That's just over 2 MOA. I'm guessing that's the minimum standard they have to meet when they come out of the Lithgow factory. I wonder how that compares with its modern contemporaries. Especially with the unorthodox layout (read: bullpup), the quick changing barrel system and the ambidextrous ejection port system.

my favourite , the remington 700 tactical .

I read somewhere that they were looking at a metal storm's native (australian designed and made) grenade launcher attachment using the electronic stacked firing mechanism. Means you could have multiple firings of the launcher...

 

I dont know where this is at the moment...

I hope they get it because I have shares in MST and they haven't been doing to well over the last few years

Discussed quite a while ago in this forum somewhere. I think it was in the ADF thread maybe? the topic would most definitely include the AICW in it though. should be able to pick it up from that.

As I recall hte AICW that had the incorporated stackable grenades in it, was last being tested iwth dummy grenades. Since i read thearticle on it I do not believe that it had gone any further with teh testing. Somthing to do with the fact that when you fired it it was likly to set off teh other grenades sitting behind it in the tube.
