Reading the article made me think that just a KISS rifle during actual combat might not be the best thing anymore. It is harder to sight while moving and aiming at moving targets. A RDS can help with that. Flash light can help with low light, foregrip for better firing stability, etc

Having some type of rail forearm is nice, at least for attaching a vertical grip.
As for sights: Personally, I still don't trust anything besides iron sights. Maybe if I were not in combat, but if I were infantry, I'd rather just have iron sights over some expensive optical or holographic sight that might get damaged. That being said, it would be nice to have both the carry handle (or at least flip-up iron sights) and a more hi-tech scope just in case. Are combat troops are in the habit of carrying back-up iron sights even when they have an Aimpoint or Holosight on their weapon?

I guess you're right about that, but there's nothing stopping our troops from getting their own back up iron sights and attaching a red dot or ACOG.

What about shooting with that same plain Jane rifle in the dark or low light? Would you claim the same amount of accuracy?
