I was hoping for some quad .50s, nice defensive weapon on infantry in the open, although not allowed by the Geneva Convention. Just keep aiming for those low flying aircraft they are shielding in their ground assault.

30-06 - old school.

You can purchase a legal, semi-auto version of the M1919 and/or a Ma Duce. You will need a truck to carry the Ma Duce - comes with tripod and spare barrel.

Just make sure the Gunny shows you how to headspace the weapon....

Must've been a few mods to their older model.

the good guys are the minority in Mexico. They have to hide to avoid being ambushed when not on duty.

“Mexico police seize anti-aircraft weapon near US border”
Agence France-Presse | 04/14/2009 11:07 PM

SNIPPET: “MEXICO CITY - Police seized an anti-aircraft machine gun mounted on a van and other heavy weapons at a house in northern Mexico near the US border, an official said Tuesday.

The haul came two days before a visit to Mexico by US President Barack Obama in which Mexico’s violent drug cartels and their mainly US-bought weapons were set to top the agenda.

The machine gun seized in Sonora state, bordering Arizona in the United States, could fire 800 shots per minute up to 1,500 meters away, said Rodolfo Cruz, from the federal public security ministry, at a news conference.

Police also found a grenade launcher, five shotguns, a hand grenade, and scores of magazines and cartridges.

A suspected female caretaker was also detained, Cruz said.”
