1. It is a wicked weapon.
Edited on Fri Nov-23-07 12:18 PM by TomInTib
However, due to a design flaw, the M60 is not capable of extended fire.

Even though it can pop about 10 rounds per second, the barrel will fail after about 100 rapid-fire rounds. They designed a lightweight barrel for mobility, but the barrels melt so easily that the gunner has to carry extra barrels. Brilliant, that.

It also cannot be used overhead.

But the M60 can definitely mess stuff up.
