New to airsoft? Here are some safety tips for airsoft guns that we recommend following.
Description
The real steel M240 Bravo is a belt-fed, gas operated LMG that uses the 7.62x51 cartridge. The M240 has been in use by the United States military since the mid 80's and has been revered as an extremely reliable, but heavy, light machine gun. The M240B was introduced to replace the aging and unreliable M60 as the United States primary large caliber LMG.
Echo 1 has knocked it out of the park with their M240 Bravo, before this you would have to pay top dollar for a high quality 240B and you will still have to upgrade to make the gun ready to skirmish. Based upon the real steel M240 Bravo, the Echo 1 M240B weights nearly 22 pounds fully loaded with a battery and BBs. The Echo 1 240B features a full metal design with only plastic at the carrying handle and full stock. The detail of the M240B is spot on, the finish of the stock and metal body nearly mirrors that of the real steel. The carry handle is extremely durable and can easily take the weight of the gun without creaking or flexing. The gun features a very sturdy bipod that is barrel mounted and can fold up and tuck up beneath the hand guard. The M240B features a folding leaf sight with aperture and notch for adjustment of elevation and windage, with a standard blade style front sight. The charging handle of the M240B functions just like the real steel charging handle in that it does not return to the forward position by spring force alone, the charging handle must be manually pulled to the rear and then seated to the front again.
The Echo 1 M240B fires at 400 FPS and per second, making the M240B one of the best airsoft light machine guns on the market. The box magazine of the M240B holds around 4000 BBs so you can easily cover your teams advance in any situation. The M240B is not a gun that is made to be used as a assault carbine, the Bi-pod and large magazine makes it perfect for fortifying a position or covering a advancement. With the Echo 1 M240B at your side, there is very few things that can get in you and your teams way.

I bought this beast in April 2013 and I couldn't be happier. I took it to Operation Starburst here in south Texas and it dominated. The range on this thing is monstrous and the accuracy is fantastic. You got 5000 rounds in the mag. Use .25 or heavier with this thing to get the best range. It's VERY difficult to move around with though, its best just to set up some where behind cover and let it rip.
Pros:
RANGE HOLY HELL RANGE
Accuracy is very good for a support gun
Fps is 400 on the light spring and I got 485 on the heavier spring.
5000 rounds
Cons:
Weight and length make it very difficult to move arround.
GET A SLING!
The over all spec of the m240b is great however the ability to get parts for the weapon is hard to do.
Pros:
ability to support your team, rapidness of reloads, compatibility with many add ons, quickness in changing a battery in the middle of a game
Cons:
box magazine breaks easily and is hard to both replace and fix,
This in my opinion is the best LMG for support weapons out there. Can't go wrong with the M240 Bravo!!!!!
