The M2A1 is a 50cal (12.7mm) HMG that is capable of firing 600 rounds per minute out to a maximum range of 6,800m. It incorporates many improvements over the venerable M2 HMG including a quick-change barrel mechanism, fixed headspace and a new flash hider that reduces the weapon’s flash signature by 95%. Like its predecessor, the M2A1 can be mounted on a tripod as well as a variety of other ground, aerial and naval platforms. General Dynamics has manufactured both new guns and upgrade kits for the US Army and foreign
customers.
