Oops...my bad. The first gun he shows at 0:21 into the video is the Mark 19 - but then he mentions how that's the old version and they're working on a new version - the XM-307:

But it's still a cool picture of the older Mark 19. :-)

...and in France we still have WWII M2HB's. I've even seen one that was bearing the Japanese imperial chrysanthemum stamp!

Good Video German EPA. I saw the Mark 19 in the US Army. I did not know that weapon system was that old. This season of Future Weapons was excellent. Al Qaeda does not stand a chance.
