#3 incorrectly displays an A&K M249 instead of the G&P. Here are the listings for both: A&K - www.evike.com/products/56042/ G&P - www.evike.com/products/55608/
My personal favorite is the M60e4. It’s lighter than the OG M60, has a built in foregrip (can get the e6 version for the tac rail), and makes you feel like Rambo in Airsoft.
At the field i work/play at, we recently switched to semi only except for saws. We define it as any gun that in the real world would be used in that role, providing that the gun is setup in that way. So we include full length rpks, m27 with a box mag, shrikes and all the obvious big guns. Its cut back on a ton of overshooting issues we were experiencing from people who were "saws".
I think an LMG should be heavy but still very powerful with a high fire rate. This would keep it balanced by restricting the user’s mobility but allowing him to lay down a laser beam of BB’s
Generally you want a lower fire rate, as you'll dump bb's to quickly where you don't want them. You'd rather have a lower fire rate so you can keep shooting as others are reloading, you can't be waiting for your mag to wind, or dump a prewound to quickly. You get an awful lot to shoot at/shot a you as a support gunner, ammo conservation is important as you don't want to be caught with your pants down or blow a full 5k box of .3-.34 bb's a game. It gets very expensive the faster it shoots.
The way mine are set up is simple. M249: runs bout 20rps at 330fps, this allows me to run with the squad and provide support M60: runs closer to 15rps and workin up to 500fps, this is for point defense or really anywhere a hmg would be used.
As a LOOOOOOOOONG time gunner, Im glad to see the mg market so broad. Its great to get more people into the role. Though theres a part of me that still loves to look back at the days of bein one of the baddest guys on the field.
Army Infantry vet here An LMG, by definition, and the definition I follow, is basically said as the following: "Any fully automatic weapon in which all components (gun, ammo, attachments) can be carried, manned, and used by a singular person". Usually using a standard round that the infantry uses, IE 5.56. Perfect example, the M249 or the RPK. An "HMG" (referred to as a "Crew Served Weapon") is "any automatic weapon in which carrying all pieces must be carried by 2-4 members of a Gun Team. Typically involving the Gunner, carrying a 50-100 round belt in the gun, the AG/Assistant Gunner (AKA the Gun Team Leader) carrying the tripod and 1 extra belt of ammo, and 1-2 Ammo Bearers, ABs, carrying roughly 800-1000 rounds a person. perfect example, the M240 machinegun series, including the M240B, M240C, and M240L.Usually in a heavier, bigger, harder hitting round Like .308, 7.62x39, and the .50 BMG. The M1919 and the M2 would classify as HMG seeing as they use bigger rounds and it takes at LEAST 3 members of a collective team to ensure the weapon system is used at maximum efficiency.
The two LMGS that are the best options are an M249 that can take m4 mags for the nato bois and a full length RPK for the ak bros. The reason being either can take regular mags so when your box or drum eventually fails...which it will...someone can toss you a mag or you can have one handy until you get your stuff fixed or replaced. If you don't feel like fussing with the box or drum you can just run mags too. If the rpk isnt full length some fields won't let it run as an lmg.
Honestly I agree with the concept that an lmg should be more bulky and unwieldy to act as a trade off for being able to shoot a hose of bbs down range. Milsims in my area only allow semi auto for riflemen which allow support gunners to lock down objectives with only a few other riflemen. I managed to hold of an opfor push for half an hour against half their team while I was sat on objective with 5 other guys. I was gassed having to lug it around the field all day bringing it to wherever command needed us to hold but it was honestly an absurd amount of fun knowing that your bullet hose is keeping everyone's heads down.
I’m not trying to be a smartass but the RPK, although being on the AK platform, differs WILDLY in performance and parts and is really an lmg. (If you ask me at least)
Most fields consider them as a support gun. I ran one that I built on a poly G&G to make it as light as possible. I quickly realized it didn’t fit my play style (I’m more of a DMR/sniper at heart). It was extremely accurate and I was using it more as a precision weapon than a support gun most of the time. I switched to a P* SVD shortly after that… i do a lot more damage on the field now.
I'm a CAW minigun owner, I bought it off the Evike site when they were first released, sadly don't use it as much anymore because most fields around here now are BIO BB only and or Semi only.
I believe a LMG is most of what is in this video, LMG is a mainly used at the shoulder/ with the squad. MMG will mostly be used mounted or in the bipod configuration. HMG will be something mounted as well, but along the lines of a 50cal or bigger. Lindybeige on UA-cam has a great video on LMG,MMG,HMG
@@Buster1276 im going to assume you have never played as an LMG long term. Lol. AEG LMGs are notoriously unreliable....ask anyone, at any field, and any event. 😄👍
These are my favorite airsoft LMGs (both on evike) = Cybergun FN Licensed "Middleweight" M249 Airsoft Machine Gun (Version: MK I / Black) and LCT Airsoft RPK NV Full Metal Airsoft AEG with Real Wood Furniture
What about the RPK? Either drum mag or crazy banana mag, I've got one, great fun and the total opposite to my practical M249 shorty with para stock and mini box mag, it would have given you a top 10 list as well.
@@DotEkimX Yes...and no. I get your point completely which is why I bought it because it looks like a crazy AK on steroids but officially it is an LMG, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RPK I don't speak Russian but apparently it's even in the name :-)
In layman's terms I believe the difference between Support Gunner, and LMG and HMG would be 1) caliber of projectile and 2) ease of mobility (ease of deployment or mounted)
I saw some people saying perhaps the m27 got mainly adopted because the marines liked it more as a regular infantry rifle more than really caring about it’s worth as a support weapon
The M27 IAR was initially tested for its capabilities as an Infantry Automatic Rifle (IAR) to supplement the M249 SAW, not necessarily replace (though, the M249 SAW was eventually decommissioned entirely from the Marine Corps). Its original purpose was to have a more mobile support weapon that had better accuracy compared to the SAW While it did fulfill its role, it wasn't able to replace the SAW's role. What Matt said about drum mags being used often is not true, as the one being developed for it was eventually dropped entirely due to feeding issues. You'd only ever see it with standard 30 round magazines Eventually, the Marine Infantry did adopt it to mostly replace the M16A4s and M4s, being more accurate, especially in fully automatic, as well as easier to maintain in comparison. The M27 IAR moved away from being a support weapon to being a better service rifle, even being adopted as the M38 Designated Marksman Rifle (which is the same weapon, just different attachments)
I think many weapons in airsoft can fit the category of an lmg or support weapon. Mainly because the support role is to provide sustained fire down range to suppress the enemy and support the squad. an M4 with a drum mag slapped in it could certainly fulfill this role, It simply wouldn't look or mimic a real life counterpart. For the sake of fulfilling a role at any event that's how I think the support role works, but I know in milsim it tends to require specific replica guns in order for it to count, and I get that since it helps build immersion. Simply my thoughts on the matter.
was recently at an outdoor event where there were three people total running m134's i did somethign crazy with just my pistol in hand i snuck up on him and took out a heavy gunner with a pistol ...was epic and fun
I think the Stoner 96 should replace one of the Shrike-style platforms on the list, and maybe put it higher. It’s nice and light, has a v2 gearbox, and has a great box mag as standard, not to mention has a good deal of customization.
You can say whatever you want, to me #8 and #7 are M4s with box mags. They were only created so G&G and Krytac can sell more of their M4s with minimal investment.
Hmg's/lmg's are defined by what they were designed for. A few examples are the browning BAR or the rpk. These guns, while very similar to standard rifles, use normal magazines. However, they were designed to be used as squad automatic weapons.
Im not sure if you already make the purchase or not, I will recommend the pkm instead of the pk, I have the pk and gotta say rail system and scope mount etc. stuffs just don't fit pk without modification, gas tube and top cover is different for external parts, external barrel and stock no problem yet.
I think in airsoft, its about sustained fire in Milsim if the riflemen have limited rounds and ROF. Back in the day, our SW's were the LMG (Bren Gun) and GPMG, both of which required carrying of spare barrels, tons of ammo etc. Airsoft support gunners should try at least to recreate that.
Belt fed is a Machine Gun. Mag fed is more a Light Support Weapon, to use British Army definitions. Your honourable mentions choices fall into this category neatly. Maybe do a list covering these guns, it opens up RPKs, HK MG36, L86 LSW, M27 IAR to name a few.
The #4 is awesome. Even the full size model is light and even though it's not a metal receiver it seems to be durable. Had some feeding issues at first but it was related to the box mag...I have found one that works.
we have one player at my local field who owns that minigun.....and to this day he still refuses to let anyone try it heh. I wish I had his kind of money. Oh wait I spent that kind of money between my M4 and AKM platforms (they share the same buttstock)
it should have long range with accuracy and maintain both at high rate of fire. we usualy ran our lmgs att 300meter in the army but it was a heavy beast
I have an m14 ebr with a drum mag and bipod. I kinda think of that as a sort of lmg dmr thingymabobber. Idk, I feel like it depends on your play style.
Here is a story So for Christmas, I asked my mother for the PKM by A&K as my most wanted gift, and, since I am from the UK, we need to have our guns two toned if we do not have a licence or are under 18 like me (basically have 51% of the gun sprayed in a non military colour like red, blue or green, in case some of you do not know), and so, the PKM was supposed to arrive the next week on a Tuesday when I was back in college, however, the gun arrived extremely early while I was downstairs with my mum, and so we watched it be delivered to our doorstep, and so now I have the PKM in a cardboard box sitting on a table in the house waiting for Christmas haha Should I use it as if it was a rifle and rush people with it the next time I go to a game? It isn't practical but it sounds very fun haha
@@ordolupus not completely true, it could still be a older classic army. Only for sure way to tell from a distance is the color of the gas block, or the stock if it’s a full stock, or if it has engraved CA or FN markings on the main receiver and possibly some other extremely minor details on other models that I personally haven’t noticed.
I should NEVER have seen the G&G CM16 LMG offering!!!! I have the "shorty" CM16 now, and the CM16 longer barrel model on order for my "Armageddon" project. My definition is a "one person portable system" that is capable of taking team members mags if need be.
The mount for the box mag on the m60’s makes it do swapping mags a long process that you can’t possibly do in the middle of a game. The closest gun to the m60 on here is the m240 which has a different mount for the box mag
Along with the fact that the hop up units on M60s are trash and really don't work, need to get a Bullgear hop up unit for it to just function so its a bad choice unless you know it ahead of time and know how to put it together
What is a LMG/MMG? Simple, its designed to be used mainly in full auto with a heavy wight barrel to match the heat output. The feed system (box drum or mag) doesn't matter, but it should be an arm set up for longer sustained fire to support the squad either in pinning foes down, or trying to take out fast moving targets. I have a M249 Featherweight that I normally use a box with but I love the ability to swap to mags if needed and those are the roles I use it in.

Not trying to be a hater of your list, but is the Krytac one even possible to be called an LMG? It's kinda just an AR with a box mag...

It's a real belt fed upper so yes it's an LMG even though the airsoft version feeds from the magwell like an M4

Totally agree, felt the inclusion of these was a bit of a cheat. I'm fairly sure many MILSIMS wouldnt accept either the G&G or the Krytac.

Belt fed is a Machine Gun. Mag fed is more a Light Support Weapon, to use British Army definitions. Your honourable mentions choices fall into this category neatly. Maybe do a list covering these guns, it opens up RPKs, HK MG36, L86 LSW, M27 IAR to name a few.
Mg42 is one of my favorites because of the fire rate and quick barrel change.

It's the ability to lay down prolonged suppressive fire without becoming a hazard to the operator
I actually got pissed off when he said the rpk 16 wasn’t a lmg

Right on! Thanks!
it should have long range with accuracy and maintain both at high rate of fire. we usualy ran our lmgs att 300meter in the army but it was a heavy beast
great list, PKM for me 🤗

#2 is not the PKM, it's the earlier version of it - the PK:)
I thought that the M60 would place but it is similar to the M240B
Whut! No Tokyo Mariu LMG?
30 rounds mags are what's used in the M27 unless you're referring outside of the military.
Love your videos keep it up
Where’s the m60?!?
Here is a story
So for Christmas, I asked my mother for the PKM by A&K as my most wanted gift, and, since I am from the UK, we need to have our guns two toned if we do not have a licence or are under 18 like me (basically have 51% of the gun sprayed in a non military colour like red, blue or green, in case some of you do not know), and so, the PKM was supposed to arrive the next week on a Tuesday when I was back in college, however, the gun arrived extremely early while I was downstairs with my mum, and so we watched it be delivered to our doorstep, and so now I have the PKM in a cardboard box sitting on a table in the house waiting for Christmas haha
Should I use it as if it was a rifle and rush people with it the next time I go to a game? It isn't practical but it sounds very fun haha
Let us know how your first game goes! Don't be trigger-shy!
@@evikecom Trust me, man, I won't have mercy
9:25 So your description also says #3 is a 429?
Ha! Typo. Good eye!
Top choice is big boy gun that goes BRRRRRRRRRR!
Lmao, that “g&p” m249 is a CA or A&K...
G&P’s don’t feed from the side which that one 100% did.
I noticed that too, wanted to write a comment and then saw yours :)
It's an A&K, based on the looks of the barrel and rail assembly
@@ordolupus not completely true, it could still be a older classic army. Only for sure way to tell from a distance is the color of the gas block, or the stock if it’s a full stock, or if it has engraved CA or FN markings on the main receiver and possibly some other extremely minor details on other models that I personally haven’t noticed.
Classic Army LMG
I should NEVER have seen the G&G CM16 LMG offering!!!! I have the "shorty" CM16 now, and the CM16 longer barrel model on order for my "Armageddon" project.
My definition is a "one person portable system" that is capable of taking team members mags if need be.
Bruh these are all my favorite guns they are all awesome
hmg is something mounted or not fireable when carried
lmg is a saw or such type weapon
I love the list I definitely agree with you
kind of bum you didnt pick any M60s :(
The mount for the box mag on the m60’s makes it do swapping mags a long process that you can’t possibly do in the middle of a game. The closest gun to the m60 on here is the m240 which has a different mount for the box mag
Along with the fact that the hop up units on M60s are trash and really don't work, need to get a Bullgear hop up unit for it to just function so its a bad choice unless you know it ahead of time and know how to put it together
Or mg 42
Number 1 would have been a Classic Army RPK. Mine back in the day would throw ropes for daaaaaayyyyysssss!
What is a LMG/MMG? Simple, its designed to be used mainly in full auto with a heavy wight barrel to match the heat output. The feed system (box drum or mag) doesn't matter, but it should be an arm set up for longer sustained fire to support the squad either in pinning foes down, or trying to take out fast moving targets. I have a M249 Featherweight that I normally use a box with but I love the ability to swap to mags if needed and those are the roles I use it in.
