<div data-cycle-hash="fn-m249s-para-4" data-cycle-desc="FN M249S PARA: In 1988, the U.S. military adopted the M249 Para light machine gun. The M249 is chambered in 5.56mm NATO, and so is the semi-automatic version with the “S” designation from FN. In addition to the step down from full-auto capability, the M249S PARA has also been modified to fire from a closed bolt. It can accept either a 30-round magazine or operate with linked ammunition like its belt-fed predecessor, and it has graduated iron sights to take you out to 1,000 meters. At 17 pounds and 37 inches in length with the stock fully extended, the PARA is an intriguing civilian version of the M249." data-cycle-overlay-template="{{desc}}“>
