How to melt the barrel on your MG

The manual recommends 5-10 round bursts, not 5-10 meter belts.

Yep, but it looks even better at night. There's a sure sign that you are about due for a barrel change.

In that case I would prefer a Vickers Machine Gun. Capable of firing 7 days non stop.

We never had a problem with it in combat. We just pulled them in the aircraft and used the gloves and swapped out the barrels. It is just a click of a switch.

Then again though we hardly ever had to do so because well we used the whole burst method that you are supposed to.....

Hehe, burst method... When we would pull a left or right drop, the 60's go full auto, as well as everybody else...

Everyone knows how long a barrel on full auto will last???

Not long enough...
