    The main reason I train and practice marksmanship with my Springfield M1A. I get laughed at all the time, but can tote my M1A like everyone else carries their AR15 rifles. Everytime I hand my M1A to anyone they say "that's heavy!". Not to me! I've been carrying it since 1996! On a side note. Have they come any closer to fixing your medical issues or relieving your symptoms? Hope you get well soon!

    There is no requirement for a SAW / LSW to be intermediate caliber, it can be intermediate or full power.
    For example, some would consider the Bren to be a SAW / LSW. It used the same .303 cartridge the infantry rifles (Lee Enfield Mk III's and IV's, mostly) were chambered in, was fully automatic and generally ticks all the boxes. .303 is a full power cartridge.
    A SAW / LSW is any fully automatic support weapon platform that is chambered in the same cartridges as the main infantry service rifles. The reason you only really see intermediate cartridge examples in modern SAW / LSW's is because.. well, pretty much all service rifles these days are intermediate power.
