Heckler & Koch is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of small arms with roots in Germany. For more than 60 years, they have been developing and manufacturing various types of firearms.

The Fiscal Year 2019 Budget Estimates Justification Book for the United States Marine Corps procurement gives us some insight into the Corps small arms aims for the next couple of years. The Marine Corps looks set to begin its transition to the M320 40mm under-barrel grenade launcher next year.
