I used the beejesus out of the Mk 19, and I love it. It's a maintainance pig and we had some bad lots of ammo where the links were improperly mounting on the casing, but I would not trade that gun for any other crew served. Much more useful in my AO than the M2 for dealing with dismount savages at 20-1000m. Some of the other units within the Bn had problems due to improper maintainance and failure to kick armorer ass IOT fix broken guns. In at least one fairly major engagement(60-80 savages hitting a plt patrol base) this was a major missed opportunity. S/F....Ken M
