Image Browning M1919A4 Soldier 1949.jpg thumb right 250px A M1919 on the M2 Tripod The M2 Tripod is a U.S. machine gun tripod originally used with the M1919 Browning machine gun Browning M1919 infantry machine gun. Since then, it has seen several redesigns, but remained largely the same. In this fashion, the M2 tripod has seen combat service in every conflict the United States Army U.S. Army and United States Marine Corps Marine Corps has been involved in since World War II . It has also been widely used by numerous other nations, such as U.S. Allies in various wars, especially those countries that used the same machine guns as the United States military. Modern U.S. machine guns, such as the M60 machine gun M60 , M249 Squad Automatic Weapon M249 and M240 machine gun M240 series machine guns, use slightly updated versions of the M2, designated the M122 tripod . The M60 was originally going to be used on an experimental M91 tripod, but the M122 was selected over it in 1950s. The differences between the M2, M122 are found in the types of mounting pintles and traverse & elevation mechanisms. The actual tripod is referred to as the tripod leg assembly and is essentially identical among all models. Many current issue M122 tripods in fact were originally M2 tripods, and had new markings applied when refurbished and matched with mounting pintles for M60, M240 or M249 machineguns.

Image M2A4 mine M6A1 fuze.jpg right thumb An M2A4 mine with a M6A1 pressure and pull fuse. The M2 is a United States US bounding mine bounding anti personnel mine used during the Second World War . A number of variants of the mine were produced and although the mine is no longer in US service, it can be found in Cyprus , Iran , Iraq , Korea , Laos , Oman , Rwanda , Tunisia and the Western Sahara . Copies of the mine were produced by Belgium as the PRB M966 , Pakistan P7 , Portugal M 966 and Taiwan . The mine consists of a cylindrical steel main body containing a 60 millimeter mortar shell body originally the M49A2 , linked to a tall thin fuze stand. The fuze stand held either a pin based tripwire fuze or a combination pressure tripwire fuze with a pronged pressure cap. Later fuze s were sensitive to pressure or pull and could be used with a tripwire . When the mine is triggered a black powder charge launches the mortar shell out of the main body of the mine and into the air. A pyrotechnic delay fuse triggers the mine when it has risen to between two and three meters in height. The lethal radius of the mine is reported to be approximately ten meters. Development The US began development of the anti personnel mines in the summer of 1940 spurred on by events in the Second World War.
