Looks like the ammo tray/belt is pretty exposed. Is this the way the operational unit is rigged?

The most interesting thing about that picture is the way the ammo belt has a kink in it but can still feed into the receiver. I would have thought it would have been designed in such a way that the belt was aligned perpendicular to the weapon.

Pretty neat to think that the machine gun shown is pushing 90 years old.John Browning was a genius.

That M2 sure looks like it should. Serious.

Only thing that even looks vulnerable on that weapon system is the optics panel just underneath the barrel.

Wait, I saw that critter in a Chuck Norris movie! Ummmmmm Code of Silence I think it was. Robot-y kind of thinghie with a human controller standing off to the side during the demo. Old Chuck just puts his revolver sights on the human controller and orders him to "FREEZE!" That did the trick.
