Col. Douglas A. Tamilio, project manager, Soldier Weapons, with Program Executive Office Soldier, discussed improvements to the M-24 sniper rifle during a media roundtable, March 2, at the Pentagon. Improvements to the weapon will include an adjustable stock and cheek welds to make the weapon configurable to the Soldier, and the addition of five-to-ten round external magazines. The Army expects to start fielding the improved M-24 to Army snipers in the fall.
