I’m looking for opinions... wanting to add a new belt fed to the arsenal but I don’t have any hands on experience with the M60 platform.
I have been around a few HK21’s. All of them from the 21, 21A1, and the 21E. I have the chance to get as true to a German gun as any civilian is allowed to have. A Terry Dyer built registered receiver swing down “true E”. Beautiful gun, unmolested and unfired, except for Terry function testing. Only problem is..... it’s new. So I won’t shoot it.
There is also a Saco Lowell shops M60 that I’ve been looking into. I’ve done all my due diligence. Research, upgrades, what to look for in terms of receiver stretch, trunnion wear all the common M60 stuff. Problem is I’ve never shot one.
Anyone here have experience with both? If I do the M60, it’s getting a us ordnance E6 kit. The 21 will be a safe queen. I do love my HK’s but the 60 will be a shooter and therefore more fun.
What would you guys do???
