SIG NEXT 25 – Royal Marines L143A2

This is a little bit of an unexpected treat. I was able to fire the Royal Marines L143A2 rifle which were purchased a couple of years for the Future Commando Force operational concept under Project HAY, but not announced until March of this year.

It’s a SIG MCX carbine features 5.56 NATO 12.5″ barrel, but there’s also a 300 BLK variant also in service.

As you can see in the photo released by the Royal Marines, this is how it is equipped for maritime operations, with optic and magnifier and suppressor.
