For those of you just joining us the Stoner was a revolutionary weapon system designed in the 60s and could be swapped from a Carbine to a fixed MG setup. It would run with magazines or belts, and of course the very concept of it scared the big army folks at the trials so it was never fully adopted except in limited numbers/versions by the SEALs.

It's the spiritual ancestor of the M249, and of the new crop of modular rifles that everyone is going nuts over.
