LMG or HMG?
So, what is the correct one? People are using both, which side are you on?
EDIT: I was thinking.. LMG --> Legendary Machine Gun? Hmm? Think about that.. (Nah)
EDIT2: Some lively debates are taking place, but what are [u]your[/u] thoughts? 45 replies and going strong!
EDIT3: Aaaaand we're trending! Keep the discussion going and maybe we'll get to a conclusion
EDIT4: I think we can safely say the [u]heavy[/u] weapon slot contains [u]light[/u] machine guns. Still alot of people choose to say HMG tho

LMG is Light Machine Gun which are those that are man portable aka a single person can carry and fire it. Classic LMG in real world is the M60 which was often used in Rambo movies. In today's US military the M60 is now replaced by the M240B. To be honest though you could stand and fire it, the recoil would make it way too difficult to hit anything which is why they are fired from a prone position or a tripod. HMG is Heavy Machine Gun which are mounted and not able to be carried and fired by a single person. Classic MG is the 50 caliber or even the 30 Caliber which are usually mounted on a vehicle like a truck or tank in movies. Another is the Vulcan cannon aka Gatling Gun which is the 6 barreled weapon in terminator 2 and predator 1. The weight of the weapon, recoil and the weight of anmo makes it impractical to carry. Edit: The "heavy" weapons used in Destiny are LMG.
