Nothing election-related, just a little experiment on the range today...

Are you going to test what effect the rof has on the size of the beaten zone?

Indirectly, yes. I am working on a standardized course of fire test for LMGs, and I will run the FN-D in it once in slow and once in fast.

Interesting. Looking forward to that!

Is this the same gun from the Rockland action house?

That's just cool right there.

Nice!!! Is this a new acquisition?

I wish I could get you some of the Giant sheets of cardboard I have at work... It would be fun to see the total dispersion for a whole magazine.

Is there any special training for machine gunners so that a soldier could have better hit ratio on a battlefield? Or is it mostly about suppression and not about hitting things?

Need to repeat the test with much larger target (4 ft x 4 ft? even larger?) just to see where the rest of the shots are going - high from recoil, off left, off right?

I was never a machine gunner in the Infantry, who get a lot more in depth experience, but I did use them in the Combat Engineers a decent amount. After ensuring a good zero, the focus was on trigger control to ensure your bursts don't get unruly, with an emphasis on suppression. Hit what you can see, but rounds hitting near the enemy aren't totally wasted. Lots of emphasis on watching tracers as well.

Interesting little vid. 6/20 hmmm . . . but if I was on the receiving end, I wouldn't like those odds.

Looks like you hit the first round of every string?

Shows the purpose of LMG fire is suppression, not hits.

Not sure about the FN versions in European service, but in the US, the slow rate was preferred for exactly the reason Ian demonstrated here: dispersion. (Not to mention ammo expenditure, burning out the barrel, etc.) The high rate was perhaps thought useful for suppression and AA defense, where volume of fire was considered more effective against very fast, very hard-to-hit aircraft.

I was quite surprised at the accuracy of the one I shot a few times, although it's not that controllable.

Did you end up bidding/ winning this from morphy's?
