my favorite machine gun has to be the Minigun. i mean who can doubt a firing rate of up to 4000 RPM? next would have to be the MG-42 |

I voted other, because you forgot the GAU-8 Avenger Gatling-type rotary cannon which is mounted on the very sexy A-10. It is the largest, heaviest and most powerful aircraft cannon in the United States military. I assume you meant any type of machine gun, right? |

Ah, ok then. Once again, I choose other for the Stoner LMG, the one made for the SEALs. |

Wait, the Galil is just the name for the weapons platform the MG is based off of right? Because I'm pretty sure the Galil is also an assult rifle AND a sniper. |

I voted for the M249 Squad Automatic Weapon, with the MG36 in a close second. |

Er... the Galil is an Assault Rifle, that was modified as a machine gun. |

MG42 for its historical impact. It was called 'Hitler's buzzsaw.' The human ear cannot detect each bullet being fired; instead it can only discern a 'buzz' when the gun was fired. In WWII it was as much a psychological weapon as a truly lethal one. |

Hmm, I like the Mk 48 Mod 0, which is based off the M240, and the Mk 46 Mod 0, which is made from the M249, but I also love the minigun and the MG 36, so I just put the M249, since the Mk 46 pretty much is a special ops version of the M249. |

Minimi; what the M249 SAW is based on. The Minimi is superior to the SAW, I believe (though I'm not sure) and boasts a two hundred round magazine instead of the M249's one hundred round version. But this whole poll is in the wrong context; there's LMGs, aircraft weapons, and mounted machine guns. And where the hell is the GPMG? |

well, if a mod can add those that would be great, but since this is in the Ground Forces section, then that would exclude aircraft. note to mods:add as poll choices, M-2 50 cal, M-1919 30 cal, Minimi, MG-36, M-240,and XM-307 (look it up) |

Well, it never did specify what kind of machine gun... Oh just thought of another one. The Phalanx CIWS. That thing is crazy man. |

Yeah, but the main gun in it is an M61 Vulcan, as far as I can remember. |

There is nothing LIGHT about the M1919.......... :lol: If you want light, you go for the MG34 or MG42 not just ofr the weight, but for the rate of fire. |

I love the RPD, though the M2 Browning, the M249, and the M240 are cool as well. |
