Machine guns are used in 5 to 8 round bursts with a second or two between for sustained rates of fire, either this was to train using cyclic rate of fire to cover a retreat(mag dump for the less informed) or had a special case reason to run it like that
@@jakegrube9477As someone who has participated in many dozens of gunnery courses/trainings (admittedly I'm only qualified on the 249 and 240, but the concept is the same) I can tell you exactly the reason why this gunner isn't firing in bursts: he's purposefully trying to burn through ammo. The paperwork and logistics of trying to turn in unused ammo after a range/training day is an absolute f***ing nightmare. Absolutely every single round of ammo has to be accounted for, and the 89Bs will keep you scouring the field for hours for the slightest discrepency. It is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay less of a headache to just burn through all of the excess ammo that has been signed off for than to try and return said ammo. I have seen guys literally turn M2 barrels glowing red just trying to burn excess .50 cal ammo rather than go through the process of turning ammo back in.
John Browning really rolled up, dropped two of the most successful firearms in American history, arguably human history, and just dipped. The M2 and the M1911 are literally so old our great grandfathers probably used them when they were still new, and they're still with us.
Great weapon if you could see what your hitting through muzzle flash and particulates, like the GAU 21 doesn't bounce around but the they still use the old style mounting in the feild
Nahh bro you’re absolutely right… my grandpa RIP🙏🏾 was in the Mexican military and as a sargento he was issued a 45-70 lever action rifle and inc she got out he was rocking a 45 1911.. it’s been a long time since he’s had it but we got to shoot it on the ranch for new years and it still ran like a champ
I was on the .50 cal. Team in the guards. Truck mounted. It was very casually organized. Just keep the barrel between two safety posts and let er rip! I couldn’t hit shit, but I had a shit eating grin on my face the whole time! Like a drug. One of the highlights of my 20 years in.
It has a lot of kick. But it’s mounted ,so it doesn’t hurt. But it makes you hold on tight. I think it would be very accurate with an experienced gunner operating it. Once a year qualifying is not enough!
That would be the thirty caliber version. M1917. M2 was invented I think in 1921. My best guess is the US manager in ahold of the German Tankgewehr rifle during the war. The bullets were about thirteen point two millimeters bigger than anything else at the time. So they reverse engineered them an invented the fifty caliber round.
@@Darth234Ravenous.50 had been around for a hot minute. The M2 specifically had been developed as anti-aircraft gun, and it was really only the Coast guard that was using it early on when it was still water-cooled
This gun wasnt invented until after ww1. It was finally put in service in 1933. They did however have the m1917 chambered in 30-06 which was a water cooled version of the m1919, which is the same thing, just with an air cooled jacket instead. The US marines were still using the outdated browning m1917 in the battle of guadalcanal in ww2.
Never charge the weapon overhand. There’s a retention pin that has a cotter pin in the path of the charging handle and it will shred your knuckles every time; even with gloves.
Yep sounds good.hauled battalion ammo during graf and wildflicken and got in some livefires with the guys. We belted the cans together but had to ease up as barrel got hot (dang hot lol).
I mean a gun that shoots big ass cartridges in full auto built on a simple reliable frame meant against either lightly armored planes/vehicles or infantry. What is there to improve?
How does one end up with loose partial belts of ammo like I see on the right? Is that just a consequence of dealing with jams or reloading before completing the box?
If you noticed he set the ammo in the tray the normal way then grabbed the link and pulled it over and it clicked. That movement is what the first charge normally does. This allowed him to charge it once and be ready to go. The edit was likely just the time between loading and engaging. Watch again closely as he loads.
Why do I hear cash register sound!?!😂
bc thats 10000 down the drain lol
3,50$ each round
Because the links are falling down on metal.
@@giuseppedanieli7878$3 for 1 round*
That’s just the money wasting
Finally they're using it as a machine gun instead of short bursts
The ATF must've not been looking.

You know you made a great gun when it lasted more than 100 years. In today's kids language, W Browning
I still have my grandads gold trigger automatic shotgun
There are a lot of examples of old guns, AK is already using by 80 years, DShK for 90 years, MG42 aka MG3 for 80 years
Some Filipino guy walking around 1000 meters away: “what’s that noi-“
Great headspace and timing! That sounds immaculate.
No more manual headspace and timing its fixed
this is the M2A1
I remember having my head space and timing guage on 550 and would loop it thru my belt loop...never lost one thank God 😆
@@joehatten9171 still got mine in my office from Iraq
That. That's what it should sound like. Well done.
Reminds me of Rambo 2008
The hardest crew serve weapon to keep up in a firefight, but when working. No one stands a chance.
Yup I was a .50 cal gunner during mounted missions. The head space and timing is what alot of people don't know about.
The Browning 50 cal is so masterpiece! 🗿👑

is it inaccurate?
@@frog6581 from what I see in the video and from what OP is telling us, I would say it is hard to keep your aim when spraying it.
