I know this has been suggested before and resulted in the DEVs saying that they couldnt find a way to implement moving bullet belts.

MEC: MG42 or an MG42
Image

China: Type 88
Image

UK: GPMG (:razz :)
Image

Insurgents: NA already have a HMG

US: M240b
Image

But i dont see why we cant use Box magazines such as the one on the PKM.
to those who say you cant fit a box magazine on the GPMG or M240B youd be wrong.
See the US pic of the M240B
and for the GPMG Image

Would be really nice to have these imputed would be another member towards a fire team :razz:
The Chinese and MEC gun can have the PKM as place holder while new model is made?

Edit: Sorry about pic sizes.

I always enjoyed using the m240 on Joint Ops, but can this really bring something to the game that the current support class cant?

for the mec and pla it will add a suport class with a higher fire power and more bullets

Plus theses weapons would be more effective against vehicles.

Figure the class has:

Knife
HMG
Smoke grenade
Frag grenade (maybe)
Field dressing

Give it the least sprint and heavy armour. It would be devastating against infantry and light vehicles.

To make him totally squad Dependant he should have:

-Knife
-HMG with one mag loaded and when he wants to reload he throws down '1' ammo bag then reloads his weapon to symbolize the reloading time?
-1 ammo bag
-Smoke nade
-Frag nade

No field dressing so he has to stick with his squad mates
