Whats wrong with GPMG?
I love using the jimpy especially in the SF role. Im all up for the "if it aint broke dont try and fix it" motto. Doesnt hurt to see what else is out there. The stopping power of the LMG chambered for 5.56 just isnt enough to drop someone at 100m+ wheres as this badboy would have no trouble in doing so. I can see the LMG being replaced with this in years to come. If so, what would become of the jimpy. It would jus be a heavier version of the new LMG, capiche?
Yep naff all especially if he/she is wearing CBA,

Im just saying converting the LMG to 7.62 increases the stopping power of the weapon at a fraction of the weight of the jimpy
8kg vs 12kg is not a fraction of the weight. Add a 200rd belt and that weight difference doesn't look as great.

And besides, the LMG never made my penis twitch compared to rattling off a GPMG.
Do Manroy still produce Gimmpies/Spare parts? Think that#ll be the deciding factor.I cannot understand why some people think the GPMG needs replacing with some newer, just because it is newer. The GPMG is still in use for a reason, because it is ******* good at what it does.
