Revealed! Why U.S. Marines Replaced the M249 SAW With the M27 IAR
The U.S. Marine Corps has explored many options to replace the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon, or SAW, which has been on the front lines of the United States for over 30 years, and found an upgrade with the M27 Infantry Automatic Rifle or IAR.
The Infantry Automatic Rifle has been extensively tested by the Marine Corps since 2010. They examined the pros and cons of the rifle, and after confirming the benefits of issuing it, some battalions were also previously outfitted with this weapon in Afghanistan.
