> Who produced the M60 GPMG? Was it Browning? Fabrique National?

  I got to help out a friends ROTC unit this past weekend, and one of the
weapons issued was the M-60.  This particular one was manufactured by a
division of General Motors.  A friend, a Marine reservist, said that a company
by the name of Food and Machinary makes 60's.  These are two among probably
five or six comapnies.  As for the design, no idea.
