| The air-cooled Browning M1919A4 light machine gun was modified from the earlier
water-cooled M1917 heavy machine gun. Although the M1919A4 had a slower rate of
fire and was less accurate than the M1917 models, the significantly lower weight
made it an ideal crew-served infantry weapon. The fully-automatic M1919A4 was normally
employed by infantry companies, and was mounted on the M2 tripod. Approximately
439,000 M1919A4's were produced during World War II. The M1919 was employed by the
U.S. Army in World War II and Korea, and is still in use today in other countries. |
