OOW240 – Coaxial, Left Feed

The US military General Purpose Machine Gun (GPMG), the 240, is a belt-fed, air-cooled, crew-served system capable of sustained and accurate suppressive fire that far surpasses its predecessor, the M60. The US Armed Forces have been using variants of the 240 since the mid-1980s. It was first used in a vehicle/coaxial role but was so popular it was quickly adopted by the infantries of the US Marines and US Army. The OOW240 has proven to be more durable in tests and in the field than the M60.

It fires the NATO 7.62mm round with standardization offering benefits in terms of training, logistics, and joint operations. Improvements in the OOW barrel manufacturing process have increased the life of the OOW240 barrel to over 20,000 rounds.

Providing a competitive and superior quality alternative, OOW offers a complete GPMG package, including operator and armorer training, special tools, barrels, parts, and accessories.
Depot level repairs and rebuilds are also available. The addition of the OOW patented Select Fire Trigger Assembly greatly increases the capability of this weapon.
