Created in 2010 by United Weapon Technologies as a replacement for the M249 SAW. Vast improvements in recoil control and chemical propellant areas make this a devastating weapon against targets at medium to long range. Capable of offloading its standard 100-round belt in a mere 7.5 seconds, this weapon is ideal for laying waste to large, closely-packed groups of foes in short order. However, it is noticeably heavier than its predecessor and less accurate during sustained fire. It's large size and high rate of fire make this an intimidating, albeit unsubtle, weapon; ideal for heavy weapon specialists and berserkers alike.
