Looks like it- makes him a MMG gunner!

That's the weapon of choice of Para SF.

Thats understandable because no one wants a LMG with a 30 round mag (INSAS LMG the only Indian made LMG)

The IA and SF need to get a new MG the M249 would be my choice.

Isnt the Negev of the Marcos and the Garuds good enough? And the PKM has a larger caliber and more punch and can also be upgraded.

I suppose so. But for the IA I wouldn't mind the M249 in Indian service. But yes the Garuds and MARCOs operate the Negev so for commanility sake the Negev is the best option Probably. I wonder why the PARA SF haven't opted for the Negev as of yet?.

@jiki you are the man!

My favorite:

I wish all the Garuds were dressed like this- black vest, cool gloves and long sleeve top. I guess they are getting phased introduction so soon........



Were the Garuds pretty okay to have their picture taken?

 

[Dandpatta]

with the kind of hats they wear, some of the guys (without moustaches) can be mistaken for South Americans (take away the patches etc)
