Z06 DREAMING Posted December 23, 2005 Report Share Posted December 23, 2005 I believe it was multiple shooters using M16 A2s. A .50 cal would have pureed his body parts, and the M249 SAW would have had twice as many rounds in less time. BTW, nice vid Ben -it's nice to see all the support on this forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dorr0002 Posted December 27, 2005 Report Share Posted December 27, 2005 I didn't think they used m60s anymore. I'm no expert on the sound and impact of weapons fired, but in my opinion it was an m249 SAW. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> that is correct kyle, 249's are replacing the old m60' s but some units (espically) Marine Corps units still have them... that was deffinatly some "talking gun" action....... eyes right <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually the M240B is replacing the M60 they are both 7.62 millimeter rounds, while the M249 is just a machine gun version of the M16 shooting 5.56 millimeter rounds. The weapons used in this video were multiple M4's which are a shorter version of the M16. I actually have the original copy of this video on my computer from when I was over there. Great post Ben.

Texas_Veteran Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 I do believe that it was either the M16A2 or M4's that were used in this video. Same caliber of round, same cyclic rate of fire, only difference is the M4 is shorter. I have seen that video before. I have other video's that I have collected while out here. When I get home I will download them and post them. I also have pictures of what a 50 cal will do to somebody from a distance. I just think it will be too sick to actually post.

Ghostrider Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 Generally, a 50 will make a "canoe" of your head. Like this... CAUTION - GRAPHIC VIOLENCE - click Another example here -- Same warning of graphic violence... click2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
