	M240 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This was adopted in 1977 by the Army to replace the M73 and M219 7.62 mm machine guns, and the M85.50 cal. In the 1980s, the Marines adopted the M240 and M240E1 for use on vehicles like the LAV-25.
		While the M240B had been more reliable in the tests, it was a few pounds heavier than the M60E4, and there is program underway for a new lightweight medium machine gun in the early 2000s.
		The Army M240 converted the M240B configuration should not be confused with the large numbers of M240/E1 converted to the M240G configuration for the Marine Corps.

	FM3-22.68 Chapter 3 M240B Machine Gun
		The BFA is used on the M240B machine gun when blank cartridges are fired to simulate live firing during training where live firing is not practical (Figure 3-6).
		The M240B is carried loaded with the bolt locked to the rear in all tactical situations where noise discipline is critical to the success of the mission.
		The bolt enters the barrel breech as the operating rod is driven forward by the drive spring, and as the locking lever, which the bolt is riding on, swings forward, pushing the bolt forward and locking it to the barrel breech.

	M240B Resource Page - m240b ammunition
		The m240b machine gun adoption of the M240, has its origins in the late 60s/early 1970s technical manual m240b and a project to procure a new vehicle mounted co-axial 7.62 mm machine gun (as well as replace the M85.5 caliber mg (not.5 BMG)).
		For example, an M240B buttstock and bipod may be carried in a vehicle to enable the crew to m240b convert the coaxial weapon to an infantry model in the event that they are forced to withdraw from a non-operable vehicle.
		While the M240B had been more reliable in the tests, it was a few pounds heavier than the M60E4, and there is program underway for a new lightweight medium machinegun in the early 2000s.

	The M240B Machine Gun
		Firing the same 7.62 mm belt ammunition as the M60-series machine gun, the M240B was introduced during the late 1990s to replace the M60 in infantry, armor, special operations forces and selected combat engineer units.
		According to Zienowicz, Army plans had originally called for replacement of the M60 by the M249 5.56 mm squad automatic weapon (SAW), which was viewed by many as "the Army''s machine gun." "There was some concern about the loss of firepower with the 5.56 mm round.
		Along with increased reliability, M240B performance characteristics include gas operation, fixed headspace and timing, muzzle velocity of 2,800 feet per second, maximum range of 3,725 meters (tracer burnout at 900 meters) and operator adjustable rates of fire of 750 or 950 rounds per minute.

	FM 17-12-8 Chapter 2 Weapon Systems and Ammunition Capabilities
		The M240B machine gun is designed as a tripod-mounted or bipod-supported 7.62mm machine gun for use by ground forces.
		Like the M60, the M240B is a fully automatic machine gun, fires from the open-bolt position, and is belt fed, gas operated, and air cooled with fixed headspace and timing.
		The M240B has a butt stock and can be ground mounted on the M122A1 tripod mount (refer to TM 9-1005-245-13andP) or integral bipod.

		The weapons that stood-out were the M2 HMG, M240B MMG and the M4 MWS.
		The M2 HMG and M240B MMG were praised mostly for their ruggedness and reliability.
		One soldier stated it plainly, “this weapon was clearly not designed with the infantry in mind.” Soldiers note that the SAW requires a special tool to remove the gas regulator, which is a routine maintenance task.

		The M240B MG was a great gun and we hardly ever experienced stoppages.
		What isn't stated in the article is the rate of stoppages with blank ammo, which seemed to be every 5 seconds with the M60, but hardly ever with the M240B.
		Nothing was more frustrating than to carry 800rds per gun and then fire 50-100 during an assault because you could never tighten the blank adapter tight enough.

		The M240 was adopted by the U.S. following a world-wide search for a reliable 7.62 mm coaxial NATO machinegun for tanks and armored vehicles.
		Because all M240/MAG58 variants have interchangeable components and are interoperable, an M240B buttstock, bipod, and infantry trigger frame assembly can be carried in an armored vehicle or helicopter so the crew can convert it to an M240B infantry weapon if the need arises.
