THE M249 MACHINE GUN NOW HAS A REPLACEMENT FLASH SUPPRESSOR FOR ITS SHORT BARREL .
It prohibited the production (not existing ownership) of such weapons, including those that had more than one demonized feature such as a bayonet lug, pistol grip or flash suppressor.
Some barrels were so worn out that the bullets fired from them hit the flash suppressor and disintegrated, resulting in dangerous splashback.
