drkhrt532 0 Posted June 1, 2002 good evening or morning here in michigan.. well i got a new idea......another rant and rave ok, so i was thinking about SEALs in Vietnam and there was one weapon one gun that was used only by the SEALs in Nam..(the marines hated it cause it was hard to maintain) ok enough backround....im taking about the Stoner light machine gun....it fire 5.56 jus like the M-16s. again like i said the SEALs were the only ones to use it cause it had a number of hassles ( hard to clean/maintain, had a nasty habbit of goin off in full auto sometimes when only set to semi. and mostly was the individual ammo links were in such short supply...i heard stories of stoner gunners picking up links on the battlefield links in a lil sack during firefights to reuse the links later) but the number one reason the SEALs carried the stoner was alot of firepower at a comparatively small weight penalty (the early variants of the M-60 weighed 23 lbs empty) but the stoner could chew up whatever it was pointed at so the SEALs loved it, pluss the SEALs are notoriuosly religious in their weapons prep and cleaning so they took the extra maintenance in stride. but anyhoo.........this i think would make a great addon for those SEAL mission lovers.....also i think it would be nice to have some of the "quirks" designed into the addon like the full auto thingy well im done....if you read this thing all the way through, pat yourself on the back Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stag 0 Posted June 1, 2002 It's on my "to do" list, but quite a ways down. LMG, and 200 rounds of ammunition weighing 12 pounds. Who wouldn't want one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
