Ick, no; the weapon, as depicted, could never exist. It's supposedly a 10mm
caseless assault rifle with integral 30mm grenade launcher. The grenade
launcher has a capacity of 5 rounds, not bad. But the 95-round clip for the
rifle is /way/ smaller than it should be. If it were a binary-propellant
model, maybe, but the weapon itself has no storage space for BP.
