Why not just cut down a Ma Deuce and go all out?[/quote]
I tried, but could never find a good way to attach a buttstock!
But seriously....
I consider any weapon excellent if it accomplishes the mission and gets me and the team home in one piece.
I have used a cut down M60 as an entry weapon. Of course these were military raids where there was little concern of overpenetration, civilian casualties, etc.
Just happened to be the weapon I was carrying for a blocking position when we had a quick change of plans. Although a bit unwieldy in a CQB environment, the end result was favorable. Imagine a FA M4, with a Beta C mag, on steroids.
Not meant to be a recommendation, just clarifying my point on the original thread about 3 round burst. No one should have to do a dynamic entry into a room full of unfriendlies, clear a trench or bunker, etc., etc., and be hampered with a burst device.
More time and money spent on live fire training is what yields results. Not poorly thought out weapons "improvements", not to mention an extra 7 days spent on values training, AND nifty new hats for everyone!
