    But since it's a post 1947 design (5.56mm) it wouln't be covered by the same belt length exemption as the older guns such as the 1919, M2, MG34, MG42, etc.

    It would be limited to use 5 rounds "belts" (or pieces of belt). Kinds of defeat the purpose of a belt-fed gun.

    I'd be a wee bit skeptical of a chinese M249 design performing overly well with STANAG magazines.

    But damn . . . if it were a reality: I'd sell my soul to make sure I got one.

    I don't know about the M249 but I know the C9 can. Make a semi-auto version of that and use Beowulf mags
