You can see I have my left elbow braced on my knee. Firing it from the shoulder was a real bitch.

The TOP design would work FLAWLESSLY from the bipod, it was set up to gravity feed the bb's towards the butt end of the gun and into some wierd clockwork gear mechanism. If you had it in any sort of muzzle down shooting position, the design worked less than ideally. That's what I mean about it being kind of underwhelming. Wiring up a box mag would have been well worth it.

Lucky for me I knew a guy who had owned a TOP M249, he did all the work on it for me.

Anyways, nowadays this is more my speed for a support weapon:

Both the drum mags were u/s, so this never really got used this past season. And as far as I am concerned, you can't be a support weapon with just a high cap. I tried it a few times, you are just another AEG. You need to have the ability to sling a lot of plastic if you are going to give support.

Anyways, both drum mags are working now.
