One month till quakecon. So much to do it seems in so little time. Like get my doom 3 game up so i can compete. I should make it through the first free for all rounds, but gonig one on one with top players, not only from america but Europe too scares the shit out of me. Turns out i wont have a room for just me and my friend as neither of us will have the money for it.

"actually the SAW is pretty accurate in bursts of 3-5 rounds. same high power .223 round as the M16. that sight is actually more of a night scope than a day scope. it's only 4 power mag with built in night vision.
but i've attached the ACOG off a buddies M16A4 to the SAW and gotten accurate fire out to 600m or so.
For the Marines the SAW isn't really a support weapon, it's the focus of the four man fire team. "
it was a good question. I've never seen scopes mounted to medium or heavy MG's, but the SAW is supposed to be more of an "automatic rifle" even though what it really is, is a light MG. the USMC is gonna replace it in the future with the XM-8 Assault Rifle variant, so we'll actually have an assault rifle we can maneuver with. 'course...I'll be out by then.
yeh. it's meant to be fired from the prone. I can hit a target out to a couple hundred meters should firing it, but it's really too heavy with ammo and all to keep it in the shoulder for long.
