#4 I'm a little confused. Is the title sarcasm, admiring, or just a joke. I suppose the PKM is lightweight compared to an M2. Looks about the same as a BAR. But these guys sure struggle just to cock the thing, not what I'd want in a combat situation. Is it anywhere near as reliable or durable as an M2? BAR? I feel kind of dumb even asking these questions.
