I have to say, when it comes to A American standard long arm for the War that never was…I have to say I love the Darkson carbine. It is exactly what I would imagine becoming a standard weapon.
Sure the army would probably go to a clip feed grand first, but I imagine it going the way of the M-14 and being replaced by the “M4 Carbine” a M1/M2 on steroids. In my mind I see it chambered for a intermediate round ( hmmmm lets say 5.56 for arguments sake) with a more robust action…and I think the Darkson carbine looks perfect, It sort of looks like a mini-14…as it should.
Now thinking about a LMG, and thought a belt feed version of the Johnson LMG would look cool.
