There still should be a few old salts left here. M-60 or 240-B. Which do you prefer?

The M240 is a far superior weapon than the M60 in all aspects. It is much more accurate and reliable than the pig. It is just as easy to disassemble and maintain if not easier and, it will continue to fire reliably if it gets dirty/no time to change the barrel, etc.

I was brought up on the M60 as well but, they did it right when they built the 240.

Having fired both, and lugging them all over gods green,brown and white earth, i can honestly say that i liked and trusted my pig more than the 240..B\D.
Only issue was all of the dang parts but i knew each one well enough to assemble it in the dark. Practice^3.
