Well, since we're on a roll here...

The LSW version of the G-11. So many bullets, so little weight. Pity it didn't get past the prototype stage.
Edit: What the hell am I talking about? Favourite 7.62mm MG! I'm an idiot. Let me reconsider...

Called me old fashioned but I went with the Bren.
I was lucky enough to fire a .303 version when I was a army cadet many years ago and I've been issued the 7.62mm version (L4 LMG) when serving with both the army and the TA. The L4 LMG was highly accurate and a true joy to fire. Yes it only had a 30 rd mag, but it's lightweight compared to the GPMG was a bonus on long patrols.

I like the "Gimpy" but the PKM looks a lot lighter and easier to handle. If I had to hump an MG, I'd want one that wouldn't give me back spasms.
That said, the relatively new, cut-down version of the M240 that the SEALs are using looks flippin' sweet (I can't remember its designation).

Heckler & Koch HK-21. Delta Force took 'em on EAGLE CLAW and SEALs also use 'em. If you've read Keith Douglas' SEAL Team Seven books, both machine-gunners use the HK-21.

I'm going with the HK-21 because of it's generally lighter weight and ability to use either belts or magazines.
BUT my heart says M60...

What unit were you with? I spent time with Lincolnshire ACF as an instructor when I lived in England.I love the Bren, either in 7.62 or .303. The magazine capacity is a bit on the low side, but its a great piece of kit. Only thing I didn't like was the chance of it ripping your fingers off when you let the working parts forward after a field strip - the ejection port is on the bottom of th weapon and its easy to accidently have your fingers a bit to far in.... I'm a big fan of the Lewis gun as well, simply on a 'looks' basis
