M255 SAW

The M255 Squad Automatic Weapon, formally written as Light Machine Gun, 6.8 mm, M255, is a light machine gun used by the UNSC.
== Overview ==
The M255 SAW is a downscaled version of the M250 GPMG that fires the 6.8x43mm SATO cartridge, fed from M30 linked belts. At an overall length of 105 cm (41.3 in) and an empty weight of 8 kg (17 lb)—increasing to 10 kg (22 lb) when loaded with a 200-round belt and plastic ammo box—the M255 is considered to be somewhat cumbersome in comparison to the M55 SCAR, but less so than the M250. A folding bipod with adjustable legs is attached near the front of the weapon, though there are provisions for hard-mounting to a tripod or vehicle mount. Like the M250 and M231, the M255 has a cyclic fire rate of 900 rounds per minute.
