The M134a doesn't fire Dragonsbreath shells, and as such has a much smallere-peenintimidation factor.
Don't need intimidation when they are all dead before you can even finish saying the word. Dragon's Breath is a neat toy good mostly for lighting camp fires.
Also, no. The Vietnamese were scared absolutely shitless of the M134 Minigun. Being human, I think it's safe to say that just about anybody would be positively yellow in the face of that firepower.
Sorry.
True, but dual-linked AA-12's firing dragonsbreath would be just as effective as napalm. If I remember correctly, that was also pretty darn effective in 'nam.
Along with being a horrible, horrible way to die :iamafag:Quote:

resource efficient or not, come on how fucking epic would dual belt dragons breath AA-12's be. Also what school do you go to warsaw?
I guess it's just not to my taste. I get a silent pleasure at efficient anything.
Also, GMU.

re: wood on modern rifles. looks great on an m16, looks great on an ak, can imagine it looking pretty swell on the l85. the modern modern stuff, your acrs and masadas and g36s and shit, yeah it would probably look pretty bad. also wood really isn't that heavy, people have just been conditioned into whinging about weight if their rifle is a hair over the weight of an m16. stupid habit. come back and complain about weight after humping a machine gun across shit terrain, not after carrying a wood-stocked hunting or milsurp rifle slung for a few hundred metres over decent going.
ebr looks gross, like a commercialised, m14 version of what bubba would do to his sks innawoods
And that better be a water-cooled machine gun. :eng101:
