This is stupid.

What kind of people keep old technology laying around?

"Hey look, I got a walkman, better than an MP3 player!"

Most the weapons the army uses are older then the people who use them.  I believe your sniper rifle was built for ammunition designed in the 1920's.

Ugh, this reminded me first and foremost why I am so happy I have an iMac. Never to see the horrible tangle of cables that the inside of a PC is again.  :cool:

That's a lie and you know it.  The first and foremost reason you're so happy to have a Mac is that it raises your prestige amongst hipster cultist dorks.

Not the same thing.
Weapon tech develops slower than electronics, because of the logistic issues with the ammo and spare parts.
5.56x45 will remain the army small arms ammo for the forseeable future.
Only this year will the army start to replace the M24 7.62x51 (.308) for the new M2010 300 Winmag.
