Combat MG Mk II

"You can never have too much of a good thing: after all, if the first shot counts, then the next hundred or so must count for double."

- Weapon Workshop and Social Club description.

The Combat MG Mk II is a weapon that appears in Grand Theft Auto Online as part of the Gunrunning update.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The weapon is the Mark II version of the Combat MG, which receives a newer, cleaner appearance.

The weapon appears to combine aspects from both the and the  (also known as Mark 43). The receiver and trigger assembly are similar to that of the Mk 48, while the barrel assembly are similar to those of the Mk 43, particularly the front sight mounted over the barrel muzzle. The handguard appears to be loosely based on that of the, except that it encloses the barrel assembly and features a lower picatinny rail. Like the Mk 48, the Combat MG Mk II features a small heat shield with a small rail on top. Rather than a solid stock, the weapon employs a lightweight skeletal stock.

Grand Theft Auto Online
The Combat MG Mk II slightly improves over the regular Combat MG in damage (from 45 to 47), with the same rate of fire. This makes it a devastating weapon against enemies and unarmored vehicles.

The default magazine has a magazine capacity of 100 rounds which can be expanded to 200 rounds per box magazine.

With the heavy barrel applied, long-range damage falls to 50% of point blank damage (as for other Mk II weapons) instead of 30% for most weapons. In addition, it can be modified with a muzzle brake, grip and scope which further improve its accuracy and stabilizes the recoil, making it a very reliable and consistent weapon when performing takedowns at most ranges.

The weapon has access to the following ammo types:


 * Tracer rounds, which only have an aesthetic effect. A tracer round is shot every five bullets, with the last ten being also tracer rounds. Overall capacity is 600 rounds (6 magazines).
 * Incendiary rounds, which have chances of setting enemies on fire, although lower in comparison to other weapons due to the large capacity and high fire rate. Somewhat ineffective due to the high raw damage per shot of the weapon likely killing the target before the flames can make any significant impact.
 * Armor Piercing rounds, which ignore body armor and bulletproof helmets, quickly taking down armored players and NPCs alike. It does not affect players equipped with Ballistic Armor.
 * Full Metal Jacket rounds, which improve damage over vehicles and can penetrate bullet-resistant windows. Unarmored vehicles and aircraft will quickly catch fire and get destroyed from sustained fire due to this weapon's increased capacity.

Note that specialized ammo magazines have a reduced capacity of 80 rounds, with an overall capacity of 480 rounds (6 magazines).

Grand Theft Auto Online

 * Can be converted from a Combat MG at the Weapon Workshop, for $119,000.

Trivia

 * Like the standard version, under the belt feed tray of the weapon there is an adaptor for STANAG box magazines, which in reality is available to the original M249, but not to the Mk 48 or even the M60E4.
