I know the UK and Canadian militaries generally equip their MGs with optics, but I don't believe the US does. Anyone want to set me straight on that?

Yeah ok I guess you are right.

I dont think you can question a time penalty on seat switching, it should be done.

Well obviously a scope on the mounted guns is actual in real warfare and it would surely provide a big asset to the gunner and the battlefield. I see it working. Ofcourse you could only provide it to the nationalities that have it in real life. If the US chose not to, it might be a priority to save money or it might be simply because they use it to patrol cities and therefore only encounter close combat.

Down side is on the move, it would make using the sighting aid even more useless -- all that bouncing around makes me

YES to the HMG sight!

PS...Been in a humvee with a gunners hatch (we had two in our Mortar Platoon, though one was a doghouse model) and it takes about 10 to 15 seconds to get from the seat to the hatch and thats if your personal equipment (LCE or LBV or whatever they call it now) doesnt get caught on anything.

As a corollary, do the optics sit above the regular sites, so that the irons can still be used?

I think 8-10 seconds seems to be a reasonable time to warm up the .50s. I think the only way to really nail it down would be to do some testing though.

i think it would work VERY well in balancing, the 50 cal gunners kinda suck and espcailly in the rover where you are so open while firing from this thing.

i just want to quickly bump this thread since i think the proposition is GREAT. it would make light vehicle cover fire more deadly and useful than it is now.
