Wrapping up my SHOT Show content (hey, I wrote like 40 articles on the week over at Guns.com), I wanted to weigh in on one of the sweetest pieces of hardware that there was at the event.

Ohio Ordnance, the guys that make the M1918 BAR and a wide array of machine guns, came to SHOT with something innovative and mold-breaking– the Recoil Enhanced Automatic Precision Rifle.

The 20,000-foot view is that the REAPR was designed for a SOCOM tender for a .338 Lapua Magnum belt-fed machine gun (not a misprint) that breaks down into three major components in under 10 seconds, small enough to fit into an operator’s backpack.

They say they are ready to put it into production in April and possibly make a non-NFA variant for the masses.
