Two excellent videos from Ian McCollum's Forgotten Weapons channel going into great detail about the Stoner weapons system.

The Stoner 63/63A/M-23 was a modular gun system where the same basic reciever could be reconfigured as a carbine, rifle, Bren-style LMG, belt-feed LMG, tripod-mounted medium MG or co-axial-mount MG.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Well Stoners did make their debut in the Vietnam War, so I suppose it's appropriate...
