[mylife]

That Hummer is swaying all around!

The scary thing is walk into anywhere downtown and look around .... NOTHING you see is hard cover to this weapon.

Ma Duece has competitiion?

[Redcitizen]

Yes indeed.

[Redcitizen]

Makes the m-134 look like a handheld weapon.

[jakerobins]

LOL. That would be awesome.....I’m sure people would think twice before cutting you off in traffic. I’d rather have a 50 cal......

[Redcitizen]

Your jeep would be a gun jeep thats for sure.

[Redcitizen]

Especially with AP ammo.

Makes the m-134 look like a handheld weapon.

I found the variable fire rate select very interesting. It sure looks like some serious thought went into that weapon. I’m assuming that it uses the same .50 BMG rounds as Ma Deuce.

[Redcitizen]

Thats exactly what I MEANT!

[Redcitizen]

The rate of fire is selectable to be either 1,000 or 2,000 rounds per minute. The HMMWV armament kit version fires at 1,300 rounds per minute.[1] The average recoil force when firing is 500 lbs. (enough to rock a humvee)

Yes it does fire the same Ma Deuce rounds.
