*Before .50 BMG Anti-Material Rifles became standard in the 80s, the US Cavalry experimented with deploying the M2 as a semi-automatic heavy rifle, known as the M2 "Anti-Mechanization Weapon". Unlike the standard M2, the M2 AMW consists of a spring-loaded shoulder pad, pistol grip with trigger, and T3 Prismatic Optic Sight. Though the weapon could be broken down into two pieces for transport, it was still excessively heavy, with the heavier of the two parts weighing 77lbs. Development of the M2 AMW was halted shortly before the US entered WWII.<ref>[https://www.forgottenweapons.com/browning-m2-anti-mechanization-weapon/ M2 AGW on Forgotten Weapons]</ref> | *Before .50 BMG Anti-Material Rifles became standard in the 80s, the US Cavalry experimented with deploying the M2 as a semi-automatic heavy rifle, known as the M2 "Anti-Mechanization Weapon".

This weapon was used by the USSR in anti-air and infantry support roles throughout WWII and the Cold War. Though the it was replaced by the NSV and Kord 6P50, the DShK is still used by separatists and rebels in conflicts today. These days, both M2HBs and DShKs can be seen mounted on technical trucks and several Main Battle Tanks. | ||
*The M3 Browning was an improvement of the M2HB announced during WWII. It features an electronically feeding belt mechanism, a modified barrel extension, and a lightened bolt that increases its Rate of Fire to 1200 RPM. Like the M2HB, the M3 comes in a fixed version intended for fighter plane armament and a flexible version which can be used in a wide variety of situations, such as door gunning in a helicopter. Generally, M3 parts are cheaper and come in better condition than M2 parts. | *The M3 Browning was an improvement of the M2HB announced during WWII.

*During WWII, M3 Half-Tracks were converted into Mobile Anti-Aircraft emplacements by putting an M45 Quadmount (4 M2HBs which can be operated by single person, known as the M16A2 MGMC), popularly dubbed the 'Krautmower' or 'Meat Chopper'. The 4-gun setup was chosen because the fire rate of the M2HB (450-575 RPM) was considered too slow to reliably hit German dive bombers. The M45 Quadmount became less effective against high-speed fighters and jet-powered bombers during the Cold War, however they were still useful for suppressing enemy infantry in combat. Each gun held 200 rounds in M2 "Tombstone" ammo boxes.<ref name="quad"> | *During WWII, M3 Half-Tracks were converted into Mobile Anti-Aircraft emplacements by putting an M45 Quadmount (4 M2HBs which can be operated by single person, known as the M16A2 MGMC), popularly dubbed the 'Krautmower' or 'Meat Chopper'.

**Following the introduction of {{doll name|Kord|MG|5}} during Shattered Connexion, this is no longer the case. Kord has become the second "big-bore" MG in GFL, and boasts a higher max damage compared to M2HB, 109 to M2HB's 102. | |||
