Initial prototypes for Minimi were built for 7.62x51mm, with the switch to 5.56x45mm NATO coming relatively late in it&#8217;s development. The resulting LMG was probably a little heavier than it could have been, but certainly still fit the bill, so was adopted en masse. The pack covers the majority of the the Minimi\/M249&#8217;s service life, primarily bracketing from the early 1990s to the current day.<\/p>\n<h3>Pack Contents<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Common Minimi reciever in several markings<\/li>\n<li>3 barrel\/muzzle profiles<\/li>\n<li>Forward hand-guards in 3 variations &#8211;
