I heard rumors from players gawking at this thing at Irene that it will be in the $1500 mark. I hope I heard wrong, if I didn't I hope they were confused, because I want one and thats a hefty price. Like I said though, this was merely what I heard and I have nothing to back that up as fact

I held that m240 at Op Irene this last weekend and I must say that thing is freakin light! I own a CA m249 mk II and the m240 is lighter than that = 0

 

 

 

It was a nice gun. Got to check it out at Irene. Very very heavy, don't think I'd trade my PTWs for it in the field however.

 

 

:unsure:

 

 

Observe...this is how myth and legend are born. Two completely opposite versions of 'truth' :P

 

One thing we can say for certain ....it's bigger than a breadbox ;)

 

 

 

Slainte!

I too got to fondle this beast at OPI. I have to say that I agree with it being light. I'm not knocking it, but it was lighter than a lot of Para M249's that I've held. As for the internals, it was being said (at the AEX tent) that it had a V3 mechbox, but only time will tell. Over all it felt very solid, but of course it was a new out of the box weapon.

I held it at Irene.

 

It was huge, and very light. If it were the size of an MP-5 it would seem heavy, but you see all things are relative here. For its size, it is incredibly light. Empty without ammo or battery mind you. Someone there also had a VFC BAR (the limited one) which was both heavy and long... That guy was dedicated to that weapon.

 

The difficulty in playing with the 240B, I imagine, will come from the fact that it is abou as long as a football field. Thing is massive. I would really dig mounting it onto a technical or armored car however. And the charging handle does function, though the effect is not spectacular, it's there.

 

If it is heavy to you or not is pretty subjective.
