M249
GoodPortedPorted from Opposing Force: its own model, sounds and behaviour, from a reconstruction of the Op4 game code.
A very fast belt-fed gun, 50 rounds, 3.78 s reload, and firing pushes you back.
The HECU squad gun, handed to the biggest soldier in every squad and blamed for every bad back in the unit.
How to use it
Crouch for a 3 degree spread. It pushes you back, so firing down lifts you.
