[jmk0309]

Robert Downey Jr. right there lol

[ddmo2]

@zeldaman2008 M-60=not 50bmg...... M60 is 7.62x51 nato, or .308

[HavocProductions1943]

i went here this year and fired the m60 and m16 best time of my life!

[figtherthor]

Eeeerecting an m60! Woot! Makin Bacon! Kiss Me! JAVUL!

[Stugs21]

it cost over 400,000 vietnam dong to fire this weapon for 12 seconds...

[T0PSLAYER117]

@Stugs21 Spy sappin' my M60!

[flushnex]

@Stugs21 400.000 is not alot considering 1 USD = 20.000 / 30.000 at the moment speaking...

[orangebiggy]

@flushnex Yeah, inflation is really bad right now...

[88pie88]

wow 4 bullets and a tripod, your badass.

[ghostavenger1988]

@88pie88 it actually was 5....

[idiotnoobbum]

i was there.. they sold like 10 bullets for around 300,000 Vietnam dong, whic was about 10-15 US dollars...

[LOLCaatz]

Heh, 10 bullets for a couple of hundred thousand dong last time I checked (equivalent to U.S. $10)

[gwelsh123]

i shot the ak-47 there the other week

[edlypedly]

One bullet = One 'dolrar'

[prettyvacant2007]

"NOTHING......NOTHING IS OVER....you just don't turn it off!"

[draginofwar]

I think that was part of a documentary of a missions trip to Vietnam, I think, Im not sure though cause it looks familiar.

[Jamietran123]

Im goin here in october

[lechinhluan]

The real Cu Chi tunnels were not so complex like today. After VN had changed to market economy, more tunnels were dug to make Cu Chi an attraction for tourists in order to get dollars

[AccordGTR]

5 bullets only???

[bricksoldier2]

Love the m60 nice rifle!

[93funnydude]

its a machine gun

[techlogi7]

That firing range has undergone a massive refurbishment since i went there in 2005.

[TheMacv92]

M60 best gun

[wilatemodel]

i beg 2 differ,...mg42 is best,...this thing was copied from that......

[SgtMcCullin]

no? It's desingned from fg42.

[deltaforce76859rules]

TANKS ARE THE BEST IMO

[patriot6767]

No there not, they move slow, create a big target from noise, and are easily destroyed. Mabye you should stop playing games and learn something deltaforce76859rules.

[osdrcomputers]

Why so few rounds? I woulda opened up with it that is part of the fun.

[mrbeaninreal]

They charge like 10$ per round so ... lol

[sarsfieldusmc]

@osdrcomputers more then 3 round bursts would be so inaccurate

also money cost ammo

[BL44Trofl]

@osdrcomputers

It costs about 1 dollar per round you fire

[Disturbed2102]

@osdrcomputers Becuase its expensive as hell.

[manwitgun55]

do u have to pay for like a mag ?

[bigpyoopypants]

M60 doesn't use mags, it's belt fed. ;)

[oOMattCOo]

@bigpyoopypants Actually the belt is stored in a magazine. But technically it isnt magazine fed so i see where your coming from!

[csmybuttt]

@oOMattCOo I don't think the storage is called a magazine; it's just a box or container, but not magazine.

[sikpuppie]

yea you do ive been there it's pretty expensive...

M60: 8 rounds costs 20USD

M16: 5 rounds costs 20USD

AK47: 8 rounds costs 18-20USD i cant remember precisely.

Why do the rounds cost so much? the simple answer is because of tourism and if you want to shoot a gun you've got to pay >.>

[jrpeters5]

Yes, At most machine gun shoots you do have to pay for ammo.

[Anthrax92007]

I got to shoot a Type 56 (chinese AK47) at

Cu Chi when i was on holiday

[sodacan187]

Looks like fun!

[Scmshacks]

i love m60's, it is one of the most fast shooting guns with the most bullets in the world.

[aaronz101]

It's fast, but it isn't nearly one of the fastest shooting. Lots of conventional SMGs and Rifles have a higher RoF.

Also, you want REAL fast? Search metal storm. 1,000,000 RPM! One of Australia's best contributions to military equipment.

[Marshandcompany]

the M60 fired so slow you could fire single rounds if you were sensitive enough

[timoyang1996]

I think the main point of a GPMG was to have lots of ammo, right? It would suck to empty your box/belt too fast and not be able to shoot.

[Tfarnham849]

Main purpose of a GPMG is to be able to go from squad automatic, to a tri-pod mounted weapon, to a vehicle-mounted machine gun. It's the universal firearm.

However, it is almost a given that you have a lot of ammunition seeing that any sort of machine gun is used to keep enemy heads down more than anything else.

[Leodor94]

isn't that in call of duty?

[americaHUMVEES]

Yea. It and the SAW are the best machine guns in the game. Screw the RPD

[paulwolves2k7rs]

dont screw the rpd!!! lol it does more damage than the SAW :P

[treshnefix]

isn't it called RPK? ruchnoy pulyemont kalashnikov or something? xD

[techlogi7]

Ive fired that gun! The place looks different to when i went there though.

[GreenspiderM1911]

I'm going there in March 2008 on my honeymoon and I'm planning on having some fun!And I'm from Belfast! I'm gonna blow $50 on that pig! Get some!

[JackHartstock]

i went to vietnam they got tons of ex US stuff they captured! 1 burst though show us a red hot barrel next time!

[larsanien]

now a m60 shoots up to 300 bullets at once and you shot 3!! come on give us more!!

[Ruben1994OL]

Actually, the M60 can fire up to 800 rounds in one trigger pull! Look for the 800 round in one clip here on youtube;)
