    On the what?

    The GL model is an original creation that was made for NS's <i>heavy machine gun</i>, until a different style HMG was made and used instead.  There wasn't time to create a different model for the GL, so the old HMG model was tweaked a bit and used for it instead.

    OICW
    Objective Individual Combat Weapon

    a gun currently in development by Heckler & Koch
    <a href="http://www.hecklerkoch-usa.com/pages/military/fwframeset.html" target="_blank">OICW</a>

    it has a 20mm grenade launcher, and a 5.56 nato round barrel, so i was thinking it might have been the inspiration for the GL, or for that matter, the HWG

    Slap had alot of influences creating the weapons, and yes the OICW was one of them.

    And your right, it has been discussed to death, regenerated, killed again and so forth ..
