M249 Storage

M249 Weapon Storage Rack – M249s are 5.56 mm light machine guns. M249s are typically stored with spare barrels, which can be stored with the weapon in a spare barrel bag hung on a hook or hung directly on the hook or peg. M249s are stored double spaced inside Combat Weapon Racks to allow for the spacing of the bi-pod attached to the weapon.

M249 SAWs, or Squad Assault Weapon has been in service since the 1980s. The United States Marine Corps is fielding the M249 Infantry Automatic Rifle to partially replace the M249 in Marine Corps service.

The M249 SAW is the most common variant of M249s stored in Combat Weapon Racks with some units fielding M249 PIP, M249 Paras and MK46 by NAVSPECWAR.

M249 Weapon Storage Rack

M249s are part of a group of machine guns with bi-pods attached in arms rooms that take additional rack space to store weapons. M249s are shorter than the 7.62 mm M240, which allows M249s to be stored double tiered inside of full height Combat Weapon Racks.

MK249s can be stored in single tier stackable weapon racks. M249s can also be stored in a mid-tier height weapon rack with one tier of M249s and shelves above or M4s. M249s can be stored in full height weapon racks with double tiered or with shelves or M4s above.
