See, only a guy would think of that. Why carry an MG twenty miles? You've been watching too many WWII movies. You let the enemy come to you. In modern war you don't fight it like it was WWII or even Vietnam ....An MG is a defensive weapon. Now our military has the M249, a light MG .... much lighter than that thousand pound (joke if you caught it) .30 or .50 (with matching thousand pound tripod) or an M60.

You have to have either come from (as I do) or know a military family where you can sit around and chat about these things kinda like off the wall if you know what I mean.

I've seen movies like "Kelly's Hero's" or " Hell Is For Hero's" or "A Walk In The Sun" or "Full Metal Jacket" ... guess you have too.
