Having difficulty getting ammo resupplies since we'd ditched it many many years prior.

Even off a pintle the significantly increased recoil over an m60 would make accurate fire difficult.

Overheats faster than an m60.

Slower barrel changes.

Ammo weighs more.

Cloth belts do not do well in a tropical rainforest, even under cover.

I don't get how my post was wehraboo-like. the Israeli paratrooper brigade, as photographed, are predominantly made up of Kikes. in the photograph, they are standing in awe and praying, in front of the most holy site in Judaism I.E. being kikes.
P.S. before you get uppity about me using the word kike, take note that I am also a kike.

By Vietnam we'd re-chambered our 1919s to 7.62x51mm NATO ammo, so ammo wasn't a problem.

Looks more like WW2.
German helmets during the first world war had lugs on the front for mounting a heavy armored plate which was worn by sentries, snipers, and machinegunners.

Looks like a movie

Pretty sure there weren't any camera men running around in No Man's Land trying to take pictures.
I'm also pretty certain that the technology at the time wouldn't be good enough to take a photograph exactly as some guy got shot, like this

>>32914458
This is NOT a historical photograph. It's from a reenactment. Camera technology wasn't good enough at the time to get this kind of shot. Depth of field wasn't around at the time either.

Probably just a body depot.

OP here, this has been a fun thread.

If that's true then no fucks were given. They didn't even put them in neat lines, and the military loves neat lines.

>>32916033

it is clearly not combat footage

but small portable roll film cameras did exist in 1914 as did hand cranked amateur cine cameras like the Pathe 28mm format(think 16mm before 16mm) which was fairly small and portable with a 400ft mag

it probably wouldn't even look that bad blown up to 35mm

Is that the little john adapter?

>>32921604
Indeed it is, they were used quite a lot by Daimler ACs in NW Europe as they gave them the potential to knock out German armour especially at short range, in case the recce troop blundered into a StuG or Pz IV in the course of scouting.
