The MWAD is compatible with 40mm and 60mm and has various crew-served weapon platforms. Software modifications can be made on request to include any direct-fire weapons system.
Features:
– Simple manipulation with gloves and at night
– More rounds on target faster without the guesswork

SIG has an amazing booth, easily the largest at the show, but there’s not much new on display. In addition to showcasing SIG Connect which is an app-based entertainment and training platform, there are a couple of gems to be found here and there.
One of those is this concept for a version of the Cross bolt action rifle featuring wood furniture.
At this point they haven’t decided whether they are going to do it or not and are soliciting feedback. Personally, I like it.
