I realize this is not what folks are talking about, but the damn thing
looks so 'Aliens'-like I thought it might be of interest to the group,
especially the sculpt-it-yourself folks.

A joint developement between Alliant Technologies and Heckler-Koch, both
the German and US divisions, the Objective Individual Combat Weopen
combines a HK 5.56 mm rifle with a 20MM clip-fed grenade launcher.
However, I have to agree with a friend that thinks the rifle barrel should be
on the top, in interest of rifle accuracy. *shrug*
