The m249 machine gun has a cyclic rate of fire of at least 650 rounds per minute with a sustained rate of fire exceeding 100 rounds per minute. From a stable firing position and with the aid of a bipod, it is possible to accurately lay down sustained suppressing fire on a mass of targets at will, providing that spare barrels and ammunition containers are at hand.
Unrelated, just thought I'd post some trivia
I prefer mockery; to quote Mel Brooks:
I've been saying for years that you cannot win a bad faith argument in good faith.
When Tucker Carlson inevitably runs for president, nobody should converse with him, at all, without mentioning the fact that he doesn't have enough testosterone to grow a decent beard.
Just emasculate him.
Fight in bad faith. You do no win a bad faith argument in good faith.
Edit: for clarity, if he did end up growing a decent beard, you then make fun of him for being such a pussy that he grew a beard to try to shut people up about his low testosterone. "What a sensitive pussy."
This is how they fight. It's easy to do.
Agreed.
To drive home the point further, as a member of a great extinct species once said,
--Crissy
Where's that from?
The expanse.
Ah okay. It's on my to-watch list but just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Bump it, the first season is my favorite but some people consider it the weakest, but everyone loves s2 and 3.
Thanks. :)
Yes. Or... you know, shoot them.
Jean-Paul Sartre was on point, as well:
Mr. Flood of DC is an example of who we can emulate. If anyone wanted to make a gang, The Floods, I'd join and travel and heckle.

"Make Shooting Nazis in the Face Normal Again"
I mean, we did have a 4-year long federally-funded convention for that back in the early 1940s. I’d like to see us bring that sort of energy back.
Tack on a radio and a few other dudes with M4s and 203s…baby you got a fire team goin
Imagine what the Basterds could have done with some Saws or Pigs….
Imagine what uncle Billy Sherman could have done with saws and pigs.
Fire was all he needed, Sherman didn’t burn far enough
Also why Jim Crow laws became a thing and the civil rights movement, etc etc
We had to do it all the fuck over again in the 1960s cause those plantation owners weren’t lined up at gallows in Georgia like they should have been. Fuck everyone involved in the southern strategy…it’s all cause Sherman didn’t burn enough
I wonder if there's a place we can test this trivia of yours.
There's plenty of shooting ranges! If you go to a rifle range with an automatic gun rental, you can get pretty close. It's expensive, but it helps to be prepared and practice.
Uncle Sherman knew how to use this trivia effectively.
Wikipedia on M249 has this info though:
[2] https://armypubs.army.mil/epubs/DR_pubs/DR_a/pdf/web/ARN3242_TC%203-22x249%20FINAL%20WEB.pdf
also, 3,600 m (11,800 ft) effective firing range 👀. Although probably only a handful of people that can accurately hit at that range.
Ahh, fuck
I’m confused. Is it 650 rounds per minute or 100 rounds per minute?
650+ rounds is the cyclic rate but it will overheat if continuously fired that quickly. At 100 rpm it can be used sustainably
