Browning M1919

The Browning M1919 is seen in use by Australian, South African, Makindi Militia and the Caravian Army (Who attempt to shoot down a Westland Lynx in the episode "Deliver us from Evil"). With the exception of the M1919s that are mounted on Australian M113 APCs which are real military vehicles, it is possible that the M1919s used in the series are prop replicas, as their is no belt inserted into the gun, yet it appears to fire, producing flash and smoke.

Browning M2HB

A Browning M2HB is first seen mounted in an Australian M113 turret, and is later seen with a Drum Magazine mounted on a South African vehicle. Similarly to the M1919 above, it is likely that this is a modified prop gun.

As the L94A1 is a chain gun and cycles rounds with electrical power rather than gas pressure, it is likely that these BFAs are used purely as a safety measure to minimize the amount of powder residue that is shot out in close proximity to exposed troops.
