Area target: Tripod - 1100 meters. That's by the book. In real life depends on a gunner and weather.

What is the maximum effective range in meters of the m60?

800 for point targets, 1100 for area targets. Some sources list 1200 for area targets. I couldn't tell you which of the two effective ranges for area targets the Army taught, as the M60 was already phased out for the much better M240B by the time I was sent to my first line unit.

What weapon suits you?

I carried an M4 in Afghanistan and Iraq. It suited me alright, as I was a Medic, so carrying an M249 or M240B would've just been cumbersome for me.

How much does the M240 Weight?

Well the marines use the M240G and it's about 26 lbs(pounds) unloaded, the army uses the M240B and it's about 27 lbs, but if both weapons are fully loaded with rounds then it can be around 35 lbs. The army is currently testing out a newer and lighter M240L which is said to reduced the weight around 3-5 pounds and also the overall length.


Can you use the M240B machinegun standing or crouching without any pods stabilizing it while aiming down sight?

It's possible, yes. At 27 lbs., it's not very feasible for any duration, but if, say, your platoon suddenly came under attack, it could be done in a pinch. Accuracy at range would be impeded, and the weight would prevent this from being done for long durations of time, but it can and has been done.


What is the nickname FOR the version of the standard medium m-240 machine gun used by the us?

You're thinking of the M240B (or possibly the M240G used by the Marines, but not being phased out for the 240B), which is actually a variant of the Belgian FN MAG machine gun. As for nicknames, it's typically referred to as "pig", same as the M60 was, although it was simply a case of the M240 inheriting the nickname, rather than earning it for the reasons the M60 was christened with it.
