Typical dumb-assed big army decision.
Go for uniformity over function.
Just like trying to develop their own polymer mag even though the Pmag was already avalible.
As if the USGI mags don't have their fair share of problems.
Why don't they just do an IW type test of magazines and see which ones come out on top rather then forcing adherence to outdated requirements?
Only a matter of time until they start fining soldiers for using non-issued items on their guns and gear. That'll be a brilliant move of stupidity too. Just like this one.
Whatever.

It is missing the point to think that the martial art is solely in cutting a man down; it is in killing evil. It is in the strategem of killing the evil of one man and giving life to ten thousand -Yagyu Munemori
