It has been known to happen. Lanc has even accused my duplicate postings being directly related to imbibing in purple liquid.

Close!

You know something DerAdler, I wonder if it's the M60's foregrip that causes the problems, by acting as an insulator?

I thought the M240's M60-alike foregrip was a great idea (comfy!), but now I'm not so sure...

I've noticed that Yank support weapons have always had ergonomic foregrips when compared to other nations, e.g BAR (Foregrip) - Bren, MG42 (No foregrip). M60, M240 (Foregrip) - FN MAG (No foregrip).

meant left out overnight in -40, iced up and everything.
ANY knobber that leaves their weapon out in that and then expects to go bang bang and hope like heck for another bang, had better be on another unit than me.

Cause if the enemy don't kill the Maroon, we will for stuffing up.

People die from a lack of reality. Balistics are only good when they are big and outgoing.

Our M-60s did not have a foregrip.
