Not when you need to shoot through brick and mortar.
The M240s and M249s are usually mounted on the vehicles issued to supporting arms units and military police who don't often get heavy machine-guns in their TO&E. M240s are also seen as backup weapons on HMMWV TOW carriers, since the MG mount is on the opposite side of the ring as the TOW mount.

i do like the TOW m240 idear though, and i even think i suggested it at one time lol
I'd like to see it too, but have no idea how or if it could be coded; extra seat that only the gunner can switch to, a toggle like the left/right firing ports in the BRDM-2?
Eddie's got a point there; the HMMWV's with the M240 are also not as sturdily armored as the latest M1151 and M1152 Up-armored HMMWV’s. These HMMWV’s are usually given to air force to guard against incoming threats and not to engage in high risk situations which might involve such threats as RPG’s or IED’s. It is for this reason the air force is given the older Up-armored kits which provide less armor and a smaller caliber machine gun. The M1152 having a heaver M2 machine gun with improved armor and survival system is used in urban areas where these features are required.

Humvee need good armor like scimitar or any apc and more "weight" so humvee stay on the ground and dont act like in a stunt(vanilla) or something, maby bit slower but stronger
It's basically finished, just sitting there waiting to be unwrapped for texturing. If I get the time I'll do it myself one of these days, but if I don't get on that task soon I'll ask someone else who'd be interested.
