Mr. Jim Schatz is a former H & K sales manger.In 2008,
works for the Technical Support Working Group, a test and evaluation agency under the Defense Department that supports multiple counterterrorism efforts in the federal government. Schatz did make it clear that his presentation was based on his personal perspective and not the position of TSWG.

He called for open competition of US small arms--only the best.
His main focus though was to persuade Army weapons officials “to test what are deemed superior small arms that are available on the market today,” he said, adding that his presentation “pertains to more than just one weapon” and “to no particular manufacturer.”
