G11K2

Notes

The G11K2 was proposed as a replacement for the German Army's G3 combat rifle, and was put in production in 1989.  However, political and budgetary considerations killed adoption of the weapon.

Up to three loaded magazines can be carried atop the receiver (from which they feed it).  This gives the weapon an effective magazine capacity of 135 rounds.

THE GUN THAT NEVER WAS: Heckler & Koch G11

This weapon was rated, not designed, using Fire, Fusion & Steel.
