Role and how to choose
What light machine guns are for
Belt or drum fed, built for volume of fire. Heavy, slow to bring up, and unmatched for holding a doorway or suppressing across open ground.
Weight and ergonomics are the cost you pay; horizontal recoil control is what makes the volume useful. Every weapon below has a best-ammo page built from its caliber ladder, and the ammo chart holds the full table.
