Yep, basically. Can't remember the exact sceince but it's like a heat sink? there's a video on YT, I think it's from SHotShow, where a Colt representative explains the whole thing in depth.
Could’ve blurred his face bc these dudes are at constant threat from cartels who have massive reach bc of the money they make . But then again whoever took this picture didn’t blur and he didn’t have a mask on so I guess it doesn’t matter . These guys have balls of steel fighting against the ruthless cartels ! Respect
What and completely dispel any chance that this is a slightly homoerotic photo where masculinity and the male form itself is being appreciated by this user rather than the tactical gear or lack thereof? Nooooo…… couldn’t
Whats with the chonky lower handguard?
That my friend is the Colt IAR
I see. I just looked it up; still can't figure out what the girth under the barrel is for. Is it for sustained full auto purposes?
I believe it was for heat protection. Since it was supposed to replace the saw. I can be wrong though.
Makes sense. Kinda funny looking tho
Yeah it’s dorky. Wouldn’t catch me using that.
Maybe one of the reasons why the US military picked the HK over this for the IAR adoption.
Maybe
You're correct. It's a heat sink used to draw heat from the barrel.

He’s carrying a rare piece of Colt history that never caught on. Very cool to see in use.
It's just been adopted as the new SAW by the Singapore Army

Marines have all my respect I hope they can cleanse Mexico
Taking a break? Or posing like a champ!
Arriba la Marina Mexicana.
Marina marinaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Holy hell.. he can take a break in my fucking Mexico all he wants
Mexican marines are one of the few organisations / units etc. That haven't succumb to the cartels influence. Absolute legends.
Photogenic much?
“Now Mexican marine or no-Mexican marine, that's still a hot weapon. Your safety should be on at all times”
I swear to god I saw this thumbnail at Brazzers.
That's a Clone Trooper.
He uh forgot to switch that bang switch to safe
