Semi-Portable Machine Gun

Description
Semi-Portable Machine Guns are close-range assault weapons used to support infantry units. While most are belt-fed ammunition, some models such as the Capellan Vipersting 211 use a 200-round drum instead. Their semi-portable nature means they can be used by a single soldier wearing a gyroscopic harness, but the fact that they normally require a team of two to operate means infantry squads rarely use it as their main support weapon.

In their effort to match the Clans in weapons design, the Inner Sphere derived their version of the Light Machine Gun used on BattleMechs and Battle Armor from semi-portable machine gun models.
