The P640B is an electromagnetic
operated, air-cooled, belt-fed, light automatic machine gun
that fires 7mm caseless ammunition at 1700 mps (5100 fps). It has a
maximum rate of fire of 1100 rounds per minute.
Ammunition is fed into the weapon from
a 10,000-round backpack containing a non- disintegrating metallic
link belt. It can be fired from the shoulder, hip, or underarm
position; from the bipod-steadied position; or from the
tripod-mounted position.
The P640B comes standard with a M100
IDF unit, the RIS, an adjustable electric trigger, and folding bipod
legs.
The P640B is the
projectile version of the M270B Light Repeating Phaser, and provides
the same offensive and defensive support for the rifleman |
