m249 

The Fabrique Nationale M249 is the US Army's standard-issue squad automatic weapon (SAW/light machine gun). It fires the 5.56x45mm NATO cartridge, and can accept either linked ammo or M-16 compatible magazines. It weighs 23 lbs loaded, 20 empty. It's intended for suppressive fire, not accurate point fire, and therefore comes equipped with a built-in bipod for spraying Charlies at long range. Standard US military doctrine is to issue one M249 for every 4-man fire team (two or three M249s per squad).

The M249 Para variant features a folding stock and a shorter barrel. It is designed for paratroopers, who naturally prefer its compact dimensions. However, the Para is most often spotted in the hands of hyperactive 13-year-olds playing that Counter-Strike game.

Corporal, I see dirty terrorists coming up the street. Keep their heads down with your SAW while I go around back and flank em with the rest of the squad.

M249 "The Misclick"

The most expensive weapon in CS:GO. Clocks in at a whopping $5200, which is over half of the money cap in casual. The only reason to use this over the Negev is because you misclicked.

The Negev has a better magazine size (150 versus 100), better fire rate (1000 rpm versus 750 rpm), and turns into a literal laser beam after the 14th shot fired. Not only that, the Negev costs $1700. You can buy a Negev and a M4 and a flashbang for the cost of a M249.

Just buy the Negev. It costs less and turns into a fucking laser beam after the 14th shot, whereas the M249 is just a piece of shit.

xXx_AwpMain_xXx: "Holy shit. Why the fuck did you buy the M249 "The Misclick"?"
You: "Ah shit. I misclicked. There goes half my money"

One of the best freedom dispensers mankind has to offer. Fires 5.56 mm freedom rounds.

The best time I had in the service was firing the M249 and getting a mangasm as a result.

The fine line between psychosis and genius is measured only by the quantity of bullets that you dispatch from this gun into your victim.

It's essentially a big-ass machine gun with all the trimmings.

M249 

The M249 SAW is the primary killing weapon of U.S. Infantry squads. The SAW is an air-cooled, belt-fed or magazine fed, gas-operated automatic weapon that fires 5.56mm ammunition. It has a regulator for selecting either cyclic fire (725 rpm) or sustained fire (1000 rpm). Unloaded it weighs roughly 15.2 pounds. Loaded with a 200 linked rounds it weights approximately 22 pounds. While it fires smaller rounds than the main platoon automatic weapon, the M240B, it weighs less and is more efficient for squad based operations.

Mechanized Whitlow unloaded his M249 into those bastards and cut them to shreds.

M240B

A 7.62x51mm light machine gun used by the U.S. military. It looks very similar to the M49, but is an actual machine gun, as opposed to an automatic rifle, also, it is significantly heavier than the M249 (especially if you're the one carrying it). Pronounced "Em two-forty bravo". Nicknamed "The Pig" or "Two-forty". Commonly carried into battle or mounted on a Humvee. The M240B is a devastating weapon.

Extremely tired soldier: "This M240B is a heavy son of a bitch!"

Squad Leader: "Private, I hate you, you're the new 240 gunner."

Lieutenant: "Haji with an RPG! Light'em up with the 240!"

In CSGO, the worst economic disaster since the Great Depression. You only use it if you misclick, nothing else.

Teammate: GOD FUCKING DAMNIT I BOUGHT AN M249

Teammate has left the game (Voted off)
