Shooting the Negev LMG
At The Range
•
3m 57s
After yesterday's look at the history and mechanical details of the Israeli Negev LMG, today we are taking it out the the range.
It certainly is a very pleasant experience to shoot! The recoil is very light, although not as light as in a true constant-recoil system like the new Knight's LAMG. As you can see in the high speed footage, the bolt carrier clearly does impact the back of the receiver with each shot. Still, it has a simple gas adjustment, a very easy barrel-changing system, excellent sights, and runs well on both magazines and belts.
Many thanks to Movie Armaments Group in Toronto for the opportunity to showcase their Negev for you!
