I took better pictures of it today with ammo loaded in it ready to go as well. The can adds a lot of length to the gun, but you really don't notice it at all when shouldering it. We'll see if that opinion changes after a couple hundred rounds. I look forward to trying it out in the next week or so. I'll be honest, I'm a little giggidy about shooting it suppressed. It's been 10 years since I shot suppressed belt feds. Thanks for looking, and I hope you enjoy these slightly better pictures as well.

How many barrels do you have? Will an E3 barrel work on it?

They have sure changed since I was a young grunt. I damn near got strangled by the sling on a night rappel in training. They used to be pretty heavy, yours looks a lot more trim than my 70s version.

That's it? I thought you were gonna show us something uncommon. After spending 6 months as a qualified M60 loader in the Navy you'll never be so totally apathetic over belt feds as I am. GPMG hipster.

Getting a barrel of appropriate twist and modified gas system to run super heavy sub's through that beast.

Do you have a device to link all that ammo or do just have heavily calloused fingers? |

OP, what suppressor is that and who made the adapter? I need to pick up one for an E4. That's a good looking can.
I've also never seen that cartridge pouch from LBT. Interesting. |

It's a QD suppressor that attaches to the Rugged muzzle brake. Suppressor is a Rugged Surge762. I sell them. You are correct, LBT does not make these. I had a special run made and sell the extras now for $115 shipped USPS. |

No. I mailed Desert Ordnance the RIA M60 and they rebuilt and refinished it, then installed the kit for me and mailed it back in like 2 weeks. They are on top of things over there.

It's a new model. Yes you can always add or remove the parts, except for one part is riveted. Which that could always be repaired if someone found the desire. |

I miss running the 60, but don't miss humping the bitch. That version looks a lot more comfy on the neck than the E3 was. Can't help but notice the equally impressive patch of Verdilagos(Purslane). There is enough there to make a shitload of Tacos, and a couple salads.
