If you say "GET SOME", accuracy increases by 30% automatically

Finally they're using it as a machine gun instead of short bursts

I love that he actually says "On the way!"

The 0.5 Browning was one of the weapons that I had used during my 2.5-year National Service duty as an armoured infantry soldier. This is my favourite in firing but not in cleaning it, and certainly not during all vehicle breakdown drills.
Thanks for stirring up my fond memories.

John Browning really rolled up, dropped two of the most successful firearms in American history, arguably human history, and just dipped. The M2 and the M1911 are literally so old our great grandfathers probably used them when they were still new, and they're still with us.

That thing is 100 years old. Such a magnificent piece of engineering.

I had a coworker who was a humvee turret gunner, and he used one of these guns in Fallujah, he became known as black satan because the shit he saw during combat made him incredibly pissed off, at some point he started wearing two .50 cal rounds on the sides of his helmet, and those were his devil horns. Nowadays hes one of the chillest dudes I've ever met.

I was in Armor. We fired short bursts to not overheat the barrel. We never had a dirty .50 cal like this. We unmounted the Crew Served Weapon, field stripped it, and cleaned it with LSA.

“Fuck everything in that direction”
That’s my kind of weapon

Some Filipino guy walking around 1000 meters away: “what’s that noi-“

You know you made a great gun when it lasted more than 100 years. In today's kids language, W Browning

I love firing the M2 and have worked on them and all military weapons when I worked for the department of defense for 30 years on the Army base Fort Drum New York I loved that job😊

[rlaxoghks]

The ultimate weapon with no further elements to develop. Will be easily loved for the next 100 years

“What are you going to do with a .50 caliber machine gun?”

“Anything I want!”

[evertsstals]

The Browning 50 cal is so masterpiece! 🗿👑

[suneelprajapati]

Sound 90%
Vibration 100%
Accuracy -10%😂

Old ma deuce. She don't mess around, she don't let you down.

[MichaelKarimi-hkdr]

Dude just cleared 5 acres in 30 seconds😂

I was on the .50 cal. Team in the guards. Truck mounted. It was very casually organized. Just keep the barrel between two safety posts and let er rip! I couldn’t hit shit, but I had a shit eating grin on my face the whole time! Like a drug. One of the highlights of my 20 years in.

When they tell you "We're not taking any of this ammo back with us."
