Wow that’s asinine. Like, russian-tier levels of lying straight to your face.

I should really know to expect less, but they yet again managed to slide under even my low expectations of sense.

Pistols are the least important weapon in a war. Their capabilities are essential identical, and you can replace every sig with a Glock and the only thing that’ll change is whose pockets the money fills.

The idea of an enemy trying to plan a battle based on the flaws of a particular pistol is exceedingly silly. Even Blackadder has gags more grounded in reality.

Army is going to try to limit distribution of any internal document, a version of deny-all security. There could be more general insights to be obtained by enemies, not specifics, and this information can add to other intel to build a theory. For example, if the pistol spec said "oh we only need 5 rounds", then that could be evidence towards Army not taking close quarters combat seriously. It would not be used to build a "just dodge 5 times then charge" doctrine.
