The XM8 was notorious for melting because someone was (who was as Ragingamish once said:) Drunk when they designed this. Seriously, I appreciate trying to make a weapon light, but what part of "Plastic barrels melt when melting temperature is reached" is confusing you? That's me. It was like, I like the XM8, but the attempt to make the weapon lighter by plastic usage was a bad idea, should have just removed a shoulder stock and made it as small as possible, that could have worked.
