Lots of better weapons than the Pig, but it had it's time and place. Pretty sure I could still make one run. Great photo, where'd you find it? Boat Guy
Everywhere! "If it bleeds, it leads" has been the media motto for a century. A grunt toting bandoliers of ammo, with burning huts in the background? Instant iconic 'Nam pic.
the M-60 was a good weapon. always worked for me back in the day. then too I kept it clean and oiled at all times. but that was a long time ago now too. 1/503 PIR when you are my size, you either get the radio or the 60. and I sure didn't want the damn radio ! dave in pa.
Brother, love it still. Gotta love our ammo, too! We could just wear that stuff uncovered in some of the shitiest conditions on the planet and it still ran. Boat Guy
I really wanted a job in a moisturizer factory. I applied twice a day.

Been 39 years since I last fired one and I know I could make it run.
