Description[]
The Alterna. It is internally fed from the 150-round box magazine. The linked ammunition is stored in a set configuration within the box to prevent jamming.
The Alterna is our first machine gun. It fires the 7.62 NATO round. It comes pre-equipped with a laser sight which is turned on and off by twisting its head (9V battery chamber on other side;secured with bolts). The barrel is configured for quick change as well. A bipod can also be optionally mounted. Also, it can be fed from STANAG-patterned magazines, just in case.
