As said in the title, i think we should have an "aimpoint" LMG since MEC and China are now getting a red dot counter part. Just to pimp-up the weapons a lil bit more

Are they used by all of the factions as a standard?

Please source how the MEC (remember, a made up faction that has similar tech as between hamas and IDF) and the Chinese (Which don't have any red dot sights) and any kind of "aimpoint" on their weapons. The only aimpoint they have is irons.

This ain't MW2. No accessories just to have accessories.

A CCO on a SAW would make sense, on an GPMG... not so much.

Here's a pic of an EOTech on a SAW:
If they were actually commonly used the Devs would probably be aware of it. They have their own military advisors.

No they don't. They have an ACOG and an ironsights version.
This is what the OP is talking about I'm sure:

We all know the Devs have a multitude of scopes and sights to mount on various weapons in PR now. They also have a great team of Military Advisers. I'm sure they're a few steps ahead of any suggestions like this.

I'm afraid you won't be seeing any other LMGs with red dots on them other than the Negev w/ Mepro21 and one other weapon.. (not the minimi or the MG3 or any other present LMG mind you)

This includes both US factions, the British, the IDF, the PLA and the Russians.
Just a heads up.

I must be thinking of the SAW, I've never seen that weapon used before on IDF, must be pretty dam good.

That is the alternative (right click request) version of the Negev LMG, the IDF Automatic Rifleman kit.
It doesnt work very well though, because there is no visible aimpoint... (as said, known issue)

SAW= Squad Automatic Weapon, ( also known as the MINIMI) used by the US forces, and Canadians. It's their LMG. MG3, PKM etc are just LMG's (Light machine guns) and are not referred to as "SAW's"
