BAR

DONOGH, that beast is not an assaualt rifle.

at around 25-pounds, with a high or low choice of autofire settings, it
was supposed to be a LMG with a bipod for WW I use with infantry squads.but,
there was no provision to change barrels in the field.

think of it as an early SAW, or a machine rifle.

a good weapon, reliable, robust, and with good record as a killer and maimer
of enemy soldiers, the BAR served in all post WW I USA wars and police
actions.

the BREN LMG, the MENDOZA LMG, MADSEN LMG, LEWIS LMG, and the latest issue WW
II French Army LMG were all arguably better weapons though.
