Anthony G Williams называет это автоматическим гранатометом.

US Army закрыла программу в 2007 г.

"The US crew-served gun was initially known as the OCSW (Objective Crew-Served Weapon) but this was later changed to ACSW (Advanced) and was subsequently designated the XM307. This was a lightweight belt-fed low-recoil machine gun in a new 25x59B calibre, but was cancelled in 2007. However, ATK has continued a private-venture development of their LW25 Chain Gun chambered for the same 25x59B round and has developed their own range of ammunition, with more pointed noses and slightly different ballistics. The round-nosed GD grenades weighed 132g and were fired at 425 m/s, while the ATK grenades weigh 141g and are fired at 400 m/s. The effective range of the XM307 was stated to be about 2,000m (maximum 3,600m) and compared with the 40mm AGL the trajectory was much flatter; at a range of 2,000m, the 25mm grenade had a trajectory with a maximum height of 100m, compared with 400m for the 40mm HV. A semi-automatic rifle, the XM109 Barrett Payload Rifle, has also been developed to fire this ammunition, but without the air-burst technology."
