The XM8 will always be my favorite prototype rifle.

Same. We live in an age where they throw whatever goofy shit into games with guns. But I never see this. Ill se the VAL and the M4 1000000 times before anything different it seems.

They had a version of it in Black Ops 2. It was a 4 round burst rifle and silly good.

Personally, I hate how the XM8 looks irl because of how plastic-y it looks but I find the version in BO2 with sci-fi looking greebles is really aesthetically pleasing for some reason.
SadeceOluler_@reddit
i think similar
we should have less known guns in games
forrest1985_@reddit
They should make a new game where the main weapons are only prototypes like Xm8, Steyr ACR and G11!
JetAbyss@reddit
That's Cruelty Squad, unironically
Every gun in that game is an obscure prototype of some kind across history
forrest1985_@reddit
Very true!

Alternative timeline type game. COD ghosts or whatever. Downfall of a nation. Changes things up. Different weapons put into service. Idk. Its called imagination. And development doesn’t need that in gaming anymore.
CyberSoldat21@reddit
I mean servicing these guns wouldn’t be hard since iirc a lot of internal parts are that of the G36 or could be easily modified to work in the XM8. So there’s that at least
cheesecrunch@reddit
The misery +TAZ mod for stalker call of pripyat does add it and a whole other plethora of boomsticks.
mynameisrichard0@reddit
Im on console. But I do have the g36 or whatever its called in game. Obviously a relatively easy gun to get. I just never see it in games. Its always the g36c which I do love. But it gets old after so many years.
cheesecrunch@reddit
My condolences, i hope one day mods will be as accesible on consoles as it is with pc's. The g36 was an iconic gun in stalker so it was expected to make a comeback. Can't say the same about the f2000 or lr 300.

The xm8 in metal gear solid 4 was absolutely beautiful
CyberSoldat21@reddit
That, the MK.17 SCAR-Hs, EBRs and the M4. All the guns in that game were perfectly represented for what we thought at the time were the best things on the market.
Business_Feeling_669@reddit
They had plenty xm8s left over when us congress backed out of buying them.
rastamasta45@reddit
Is it still in use in Malaysia? This seems to be the only photo in circulation of it within this unit.
Enzopastrana2003@reddit
There are more with them using different variants, if this subReddit allowed to post images in comments I would have posted one with a commando with the carbine version of the XM8
DOOM_INTENSIFIES@reddit
G36 and the cooler g36.

I belong to that unit. (Finnish: paskalla=having a shit)

God, the XM8 is a thing of beauty. Maybe someday we'll get parts kits.

Holy height over bore batman!
StonewallSoyah@reddit
I want one so bad. It's very sad they haven't pushed this to the civilian market.... Or went ahead with releasing it anyway. They went so far, they should have just finished the job.
There is someone who makes the SL8 into an XM8 but by the time you buy the rifle and he does his thing to it, you're into it for 6,000... More or less.

Tommy holt is who I believe you’re talking about. I’ve handled some of those builds at gun shows and they’re pretty damn nice
leto78@reddit
I said it before, and I will say it again...
It was an AR-18 all along!
