What’d you get on your asvab? Drool? In asymmetric warfare being a window licker doesn’t mean you saw much more than anyone else unless they never left the fob.
I could snipe people from 500m with a 249 with no problem. 2-3 shots no problem.
It’s a matter of skill. Carlos hathcock used a .50 machine gun to snipe people in Vietnam. I hit individual targets at 500m with a 249 on a single shot with iron sights.
Wrong. I easily shot 500m on a 249 single shot on iron sights.
Their math was wrong. 45 seconds of sustained fire would require a belt far larger than any one man could carry. It wouldn’t even be logical in a vehicle turret.

In bulk maybe. But my .308 rounds are generally ~$30 for 20 depending on certain factors.
This is a real thing. Even LMGs generally have multiple barrels that you have to change out during sustained fire.
Tbf even the gau-8 used by the A-10 warthog only has 18 seconds of brrrrrrt. So if anything carryable could last 5 seconds, you’d basically be out of ammo anyways. It’s a way of making it “realistic” without limiting you to the point of making it worthless. Which in reality, in any extended engagement, a ground mini-gun is absolutely worthless. No one person by themselves could use that gun effectively against more than ~10-15 people and only in VERY specific situations. Only in a kamikaze rush would it be of any value. I’d take 3 marksmen with bolt action rifles and iron sights over one dude on foot with a mini-gun all day, every day.
Mini-guns are very, very good in specific applications, but absolutely worthless in others. But it’s fun in a video game to weird. It’d be unrealistic and OP to carry with enough ammo to make it useful outside of fallout power armor, or a full mech.
No dakka, just brrrrrrt.

Fuck Cars@lemmy.world•If you ditched your car, could you afford to leave the suburbs for a great urban neighborhood?English
4·21 days agoI have 2 cars in a rural “city” cars are absolutely required here. We used to have a trolley, but it got killed in the GM/Firestone conspiracy. Things could have been so much better and as much as I love my MX-5, overall I totally get fuck cars. I wish I had the option to opt out of ownership. But since I don’t have that option, I chose to maximize the fun, and minimize the damage. It’s honestly the best I can do in the Midwest. If the winters continue to get warmer I can get rid of the Wrangler entirely, which … Fuck that’s not good either. It’d be nice to live in a world without cars, and I want that. I’d absolutely give up both for a bus pass or light rail but logistically, I can’t. And it’s bullshit that that was once an option, but our lives were made worse by capitalism and forces outside of our control.
