Not sure if this is a new or old figure, but what exactly is he carrying.. M60?

It looks like an M60 being belt fed from a backpack ammo container.

Looks like ‘China Lake’ pack system built for the SEALs and used with the M60.

Some M-60s had their barrels or front sights sawed off for close in jungle work. This is a perfect example of that.

Holy shivas!!...sure was not light carry all that ammo!!

China Lake 'System 23'

Those photos show an M23 subsystem ammo can utilised as a backpack. The M23 was probably still the XM23 back then, but was the mount used for the Iroquois door guns. The ammo can held 600rnds from memory (it's been a few years since I loaded them). There were three or four separate compartments in the can, and you started at the far end, filling each section in turn with your belt, feeding it into the next section as the previous one filled up. The link chute then clipped onto a fitting on the can and then onto the gun at the feed tray.
