Light Machine Gun Concept Designs

<div class="IPBDescription">My second go at some concepts.....</div> This is my second go at throwing out some concepts here on this board, and the second time I'm really giving out my concepts for judgement at all. Kinda still nervous and all....either way this time I'm trying my hand at the LMG. The original concept of this was something I whipped up as a medium to long-range variable sniper-rifle/semi-auto assualt rifle, like a modified M-14/21. It was originally based off a Stoner-Rifle's receiver and forward handle, and worked on from there, but now it's been given a bullpup design with the clip in the rear to help me figure out how the hell it's gonna hold 50 rounds... This is a bare minimum sketch, just wanted to see if you guys like it and if I should continue, if so then I'll touch it up a little and add more views, if not then I'll start again. Note that right now it's using an Aimpoint, NOT a magnified scope for target acquisation, but I left the upper receiver a rail as the flip-up rear sight is still on the rail incase you guys don't like the aimpoint scope and decide to go with a standard front sight/rear sight setup. You can kinda see remnants of the sniper setup, what with the creature comforts on the stock and grip... Any and all constructive criticisim welcome, thank you all in advance.

    than it would be better as shotgun replacement imo <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo--> (=> semi-auto)

    *looks* Never thought of that..... it does have the curves to be a semi shotty....albeit the reloading animations might be a little off then...but hmm.....

    lol
    "Whats that you got in your pocket there marine?"
    "My pistol sir!"
    "May I see it?"
    *whips out full-blown sniper rifle*
    "Ah....just the right size I see....so where's your primary assault weapon?"
    "Uhh... I need one sir?"

    lol but I'm kinda liking it myself as I look at it more and more. I'll keep that shotty replacement in mind, but for now I'm gonna detail it a little more and touch it up some. Thanks for the replies so far.

    very cool drawing dude! looks like a fururistic Day of defeat gun thingy, the ones that when you shoot, it pulls the clip back to reload it after every shot, hehe! still, awsome looking!

    <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo--> I'm assuming you mean how many of the old weapons back then had very big and animated chamber designs. Didn't think about that. And the funny thing is I am a long time DoDer too.... Thanks for the input, any thoughts/comments on changes etc. are welcome.

    If it is for lmg you don't need the aimpoint.
