As far as I understood it, they consider it to be an easy to use, confortable and uncomplicated weapon.

What a nice day at range, and opportunity to lose legs

Exactely; he said he hadn't seen anybody on the ground - lol. There was another idiot short before the end; even if he was told to, he didn't use the shoulder pad and earned some nice words.
Seems to be an very easy to use weapon - called "toy-gun" by one of them :-)

Thats the point fool, you don't want the enemy to hear your weapon and where its being fired from.

Nice weapon, seems stable. Too bad the soldier that was shooting in the stand up posistion fails at knowing how to hold and fire a machine gun. How about getting some balls and leaning into it, so that you have less recoil.. that way you dont have to aim 10 feet on the ground in front of them to hit them with a good burst. Other than good shit
