 A normal mix of rounds for most applications would include two rounds of TP ball, two of API and one of tracer in five round groups, providing a good range of end effects.

10,000 Rounds in 27 Minutes: The M2 Browning is The Mother of All Machine Gun

 When one thinks back to the weapons of mass destruction that emerged in the 20th century,

 usually the atomic bomb or poison gas comes to mind.

 But when you tally up the deaths from the world's wars over the past hundred years,

 the simple fact is that atomic and chemical weapons created only a handful of casualties

 compared to more conventional means, such as disease or artillery.

 Discount these, however, when you take a hard look at mass casualty generation in the 20th

 Today the machine guns of the early 20th century still have a role, though very few look like

 Improved materials, lighter designs, better ammunition and other factors mean that most

 machine guns look like something from the distant future, not the era of the Model T.

 There is in fact one machine gun that's been in continuous production and service for almost

 a hundred years, and is still as respected and feared as it was when it first was introduced.

 It arose from the fertile mind of an American designer who became the most respected gunsmith

 His weapon was the M2.50 caliber heavy-barreled machine gun.

 What made the M2 such an impressive weapon was the bullets it fired.

 From the very beginning, the.50 caliber rounds designed for the M2 were something special.

 The term caliber in the context of small arms means the diameter of the bore, measured in

 So in metric terms, the M2 is designated as a 12.7 millimeter weapon.

 Initially, the specifications of the M2 ball round were for a simple solid shot, little

 different in makeup from the.30 caliber round of the M191 7A1.

 The basic shape of the M2 ball round is almost aerodynamically perfect.

 Ball does not mean spherical, but solid, that is, not having a cavity into which chemicals

 The form of the.50 caliber round has a slight taper at the bottom, which has the effect

 of reducing drag and maintaining stability.

 Maadouz first entered service with the U.S. Army in 1919, too late for service in World

 Nevertheless, the M2 became an instant hit wherever it was installed or deployed for

 both its amazing hitting power and range and its genuine simplicity of operation.

 Much of this derived from the simple recoil operation of the weapon, a signature John

 Recoil-operated means that it uses an ingenious arrangement of levers, cams, and springs to

 capture part of the powerful recoil energy of the fired cartridge, uses it to extract

 and eject the spent cartridge case, then to feed the next round, load, and fire it.

 In fact, when firing the M2 on full automatic, there are also single shot and semi-automatic

 modes, the sensation to the gunner is a lot like riding a classic Harley-Davidson hog

 The power is something you feel as much as hear and see.

 Nevertheless, the M2 is not always an easy weapon to possess and maintain.

 While rugged and well-built, it requires a fair amount of maintenance and cleaning, especially

 in the adjustment of the head space between the rear of the cartridge and the bolt.

 In addition, the weight and fairly high recoil of the M2 require a sturdy and stiff mount

 for effective shooting, mandating either the previously mentioned heavy tripod or a secure

 pintle mount tied to the structure of a ship, aircraft or vehicle.

 The payoff, though, is a weapon that can hit targets with ease over a mile away with an

 During the Vietnam War, the legendary marine sniper Sergeant Carlos Hathcock obtained many

 of his 93 kills at ranges up to 2,500 yards with standard M2 machine guns and a special

 telescopic sight he carried in his gear.

 So effective was the combination that, 20 years later, a Tennessee gun designer named

 Ronnie Barrett would design a lightweight.50 caliber sniper rifle firing the M2 ball

 round that would become a standard weapon for the U.S. Army, Navy and Marine Corps.

 By the start of World War II, the M2 was the standard weapon for U.S. fighters and bomber

 aircraft, tanks and scout cars, and the primary anti-aircraft weapon for naval vessels.

 As might be imagined, though, the needs of a two-ocean war made for a voracious demand

 for the M2, which only grew as the conflict went on.

 For example, B-17 and B-24 heavy bombers each had a dozen M2s as their defensive armament,

 while six of the.50 caliber weapons became standard for the F-6F Hellcat, F-4U Corsair

 Millions of the.50 caliber weapons were produced and used in every theater of the war.
