Beretta sounds desperate. There is no way they didn't bribe someone in the Argentinean military to try out their stuff for publicity points.
First of all... yes, that's the .22 LR version.
Second: who said that the ARX-160 has a proprietary magazine?
Third: have you EXENSIVELY TESTED the ARX-160 to talk about it so bad? It's actually probably the best assault rifle available today, but... whatever...
