My prediction is that they get about halfway through testing before funds run out and then they call it a day without doing a damn thing.

This is what...the third time they've tried to replace the M9?

But the civilian market has been the recipient of some of the contenders. FNP/X, beretta storm, Sig P250 come to mind.

Doubt it will be used by combat troops.

Maybe they want o evaluate for MP use and such....

But the Haugue convention seems to prevent hollow points.

Lol that's a funny joke...someone saying that Glock ergonomics are it's strong suit...

At least Glock has a mag release... I never was fond of the HK mag release under the trigger guard.

HK has been doing a lot of meet and greets on a local base over the years...

Ahhhh, but the United States never signed the Haugue convention.
