Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing a weapon that mismatches its carrier :-)
By the way, decades ago I fired the towed M167 Vulcan Air Defense System (VADS) mini-gun which was banned against using against ground forces. :-)
I expect our friend SSgt Boyd Herrst and Lt Col Charlie Brown appreciate the coffee logo for Black Rifle Coffee :-)

Yes I seen this in the BRCC (BlackRifleCoffeeClub) coup of ehich I’m a member. Many of us there asked why not a Ford or GMC or other American vehicle.. still no
Answer.. I wondered personally it was playing up to diversity (p.c.). Actually I believe the founder of BRC doesn’t play up to p.c. LTC Stephen Ford ..

The issue was tied to the Law of Land warfare, which is based on international conventions SSgt Boyd Herrst The prohibition seemed to be routinely violated as the Soviets employed ZSU 23-mm Quad weapons in Afghanistan.
The understanding was that the 6-barreled Vulcan mini-gun was indiscriminate against point targets. The sheer firepower and long range of the weapons system was surmised to pose too great a risk to noncombatants in the area.
Nowadays the focus is on land mines, incendiary and chemical weapons.
