I was just watching Forgotten Wepons and Ian the gun jesus was talking about the Em2 and I was wondering if after the 1950 trials and it adoption in NATO had said very nice you stick to 30cal US. The rest of us are adopting .280 british. What would small as development be like with a bullpups intemediate cartridge with optics in service in a major military from 1950 probably seeing action in Korea. But also in all those end of empire scraps the UK got into would the fall be the right arm of freedom in .280 would the M16 arrive?
