Grand Field Marshal Greninger has announced the need of a Light Machine Guns for all branches of the military of Nycton. The xm8 Light Machine Varient is ineffective as a LMG, but effective in every other instants. All will be fitted to basic configuration and put into storage.

In the wake of this, all nations, campanies, and corporations must post all of the stats to the firearm. It must have a sleek and modern design, rate of power matching out or outclassing the SAW, no problems of overheating, not overweighted, must be 5.56 NATO, not to complex. We are willing to pay a sizeable price to the winner of the contract. Pictures, speed of production and no wood designs are a plus.

OOC: I know you said 5.56 NATO, but what about the other calibre used by North Atlantic Treaty Organisation forces - the 7.62mm? Just a question, because most of the russian guns fire 7.62mm. If so, I could offer you a few that my nation produces.

The Roycelandian Armed Forces use both the Lewis LMG and the Bren LMG.

The Lewis LMG is a .303 British LMG dating from World War I. It has a 100 round drum magazine on top, a long range, and is very popular with Roycelandian Troops.

The Bren LMG is a WWII design, and is generally regarded as the "Best LMG ever made".

It's available in both .303 British and 7.62NATO calibres, with the .303 version being in service with the Roycelandian Armed Forces.

We can negotiate prices, depending on how many you want.

Both guns can be re-chambered to .223 (5.56mm) at no extra cost, increasing the magazine capacity by 25% for the Lewis Gun.

Personally, I'd keep them in .303 or 7.62NATO, but that's just my opinion...

Chellis offers the Famas G2L.

At first, the idea of using the gun as a LMG seems to be crazy. However, it can be compared to the previously used (x)M-8 that was used, except better.

The G2L is a slightly modified version of the Famas. It is fitted with a red-dot sighting normally, though the set-up makes an ironsight below it, though crude, it works in cases where the gun might have the sights shot through.

The gun has a 6 inch longer barrel, or about 25 inches instead of about 19. The gun, already normally having a bipod and sturdy bull-pup design, is further enhanced by using a mag well that accepts the same 100 round barrels that the XM-8 used.

The RPM of the gun is changable, it has modes of 600 or 900 rpm, instead of an automatic/3-round burst option. The lower firing speeds make controlling the gun even more easy than before.

Chellis will sell these for 1,700 dollars a piece, or can discuss production rights.

MG-22 Squad Automatic Weapon/Light Machine-Gun

Name: MG-22
Designed by: Phoenix Dynamix
Made by: Phoenix Dynamix
Ammo Types:.45 caliber(11mm) Hollow Point or AP rounds(we will produce a 5.56mm version for you, we estimate it will be 2 pounds lighter)

ROF: 900 rounds per minute
Capacity 100 or 200 round box,60 shot drum(in emergecy 32 shot clip can be used, jams frequenly)
The MG-22 was made recently on request from TPM infantry units, who found it cumbersome to carry diffrent ammo for thier assault rifles, m249 saws, m60 machine guns and other weapons. Well the MG-22 uses the same round as the AR-22, and in fact it can take the AR-22's 32 shot clip, not recomended tho. The MG-22 has triple the ROF of the AR-22, this allow it to provide cover fire much more effectivly. A longer, heavier barrel, which can be quick changed in 1 minute w/o tools, has been added and the action has benn reloacatec. Standard accesories include, movable handgrip, foldable bipod, TAC light, laser sight and aimpoint sight. The butt stock can be removed or replaced with a folding stock if needed.

Personally, I have chosen the Bren from now. Two nations produce it. If either of you two can tell me why I should pick your Bren, you will win. Also, if another nation brings forth another whole design that I like, that would win also. My final decision tonight.

You can make your own brens cause they are real life guns

The Roycelandian Bren Gun is manufactured to the highest specifications by Imperial Armaments in Torpedo Bay, Roycelandia, and by the Colonial Small Arms Factory in Nairobi, Kenya, Roycelandian East Africa.

All our Bren Guns come with 3 magazines, a bipod, and a flash suppressor at no extra charge, and they are all more than capable of mounting laser sights, sound suppressors, and can me modified for Helicopter and Airborne use with ease.

Our Bren Guns also include Recoil Pads, and we have experimental models that can mount an M203 Underbarrel Grenade Launcher, although this design has not been accepted for service with the Roycelandian Armed Forces.

Also, the Roycelandian Government offers very generous payment plans, ranging from bulk discounts to payment in goods instead of currency. We don't generally provide "price lists", as we tailor each of our packages to our individual clients.

And if you order now, we'll even throw in a free set of Steak Knives! :D
