Looks almost like a 1919A6, almost

[Tinkerton]

Airsharp say that the chap that modified it, Tony Stein, used an aircraft gun as the base. It's possible.

Expensive? When I read this the price is what amazed me most, because it was so cheap $550 for a support weapon is pretty darn good, especially one this unique. I think this is waaaay cooler than about 9/10 SAWs on the field today.

[evilliboba]

Very good point.
Their M1919 is very interesting. I am really starting to like this company. If they keep up the innovation they could go really far.

wow....that is... how should i put it.. ugly?

No it is not ugly, it is... er unique!

[Donut]

I find it incredibly awesome... though it might look kind of bland holding it. From the front it really isn't much different than a 1919.
Maybe a G36 or Stoner 63A front?

[CeruleanSentinel]

It needs an RIS...and an masterkey...and a green laser. >=D *Grins evilly lit from below by eerie green light)

[vbtb110]

That looks like a PPSh on the back.

Oooh I want one! I've always had a thing about 30cals since I saw Kelly's Heroes when I was a kid, and that IMO is def the ultimate 30cal.

[maximus]

if i'm right its tyhe stinger mod they did it for iwo jima (spelling?) because the normal .30 with tripod was too cumbersome for bunker clearing take what I say with a pinch of salt

[shinjinMC]

I believe you are right
IIRC it is based off an aircraft machinegun hacked down and kitted out for marine use
I think only 6 or so were finally made

[CeruleanSentinel]

Um...its story is pretty easy to see on the linked page. Scroll. Read.

$650 shipped internationally is a fair bit cheaper than even a STAR M249. i can't imagine any reason to complain about the price.

If it's not free, people will complain.

I, personally, was amazed to see such a low price. As I was reading the description I was saying to myself "this thing is easily going to cost over $1000". Then I saw the price and did a double-take.
