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.
