More Information on the Ohio Ordnance Works .338 NM Beltfed: The REAPR

Monday, January 22nd, 2024

Ohio Ordnance Works has released additional details on their new Recoil Enhanced Automatic Rifle (REAPR), a lightweight beltfed medium machine gun chambered in .338 Norma Mag but swappable to 7.62 NATO.

The REAPR weighs 26.8 lbs and has an overall length of 51.7″ with stock collapsed and 54.5″ with the stock extended. However, the stock can also be folded and in that case, it’s just 44.25″ in length. It can be configured for right or left hand feed and features a patented sliding feed tray and cover which means you can use optics with a larger footprint.

The operating system is a roller delayed mechanism and the 24.5″ barrel can be quickly changed without the need to depress a button or lever.

Above and below, you can see how it can be carried in a backpack and quickly configured for firing.

Developed initially to answer a United States Special Operations Command requirement for a Lightweight Medium Machine Gun, it will compete with True Velocity and SIG SAUER in the next few months. The Marine Corps is also interested in the capability and the US Army and several NATO countries are monitoring the program.
