Call me a belt fed the way my dad used to beat me. Anyway what's your favorite belt fed machine gun and why's it the M240B/L
>>65169401I smoked weed out of ones barrel, so its the best
The M60 because it's so fucking sexy >>65172866Based
>>65169401I have a soft spot for the RPD, it was neat
>>65172894It was neat, it scratches a goofy itch nothing else quite can
>>65172866Whats the scientific consensus on smoking weed out of firearms barrelsShotguns are better cause they give more airflow but is gunpowder, lead and lubricant residue good for your lungs?

>>65169401good thread for this, what do you think the best replacement for the M249/FN minimi should have been for the role of automatic rifleman?I personally like the Knights Armament stoner LMG redesign
>>65173023if your smoking anything frequently enough the cleanliness of the gun is the least of your problems
>>65173183Several western armies and specOps units have made a distinction now between >light-LMGand>LMGfor example the Minimi 7.62 or HK 421 (latter is designed for 7.62 from paper whereas the former is just a Minimi with several parts/barrel/breech changes for 7.62)These "intermediate LMGs" are still the basic general size and weight of a 5.56 mm LMG but can reach out a bit further/hit harder.
>build Lima Six>FRTs are banned here
>>65173183M240fuck cover and fuck the gunner's knees
Either this or the MG42
goated then, goated now
here's a question for the ages. If it's possible at all to move the grip and trigger forward on the receiver on the M240, why the fuck did only Barrett think of it in so many decades? you significantly save up on length, you no longer need a big heavy stock, and you don't need long clown arms to reload it from a prone or dugout position. And you can still have a solenoid or spade grip for the mounted versions anyway.
>>65175771furthermore, why did the US army went MUH PARTS COMMONALITY and pick the 240L instead despite the fact that said parts in common were all clapped out and going into the scrapheap anyway? Why build infantry guns out of fucking titanium alloy?
