The M60 in real life.

The M60 is a family of American general purpose long range machine guns. It appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, making an appearance as a heavy weapon, alongside the Minigun and the rocket launcher. In comparison to other firearms, the M60 in both games is a devastating weapon, killing in one shot, and destroying vehicles in a small burst of shots. It is arguably one of the best automatics available to the player, however the slow fire rate makes it slightly weaker than the minigun.

Another belt-fed MG, the M249, appears in Grand Theft Auto: Vice City Stories and The Ballad of Gay Tony.

The M-60 weapon was at one point used to kill a Grand Theft Auto protagonist.

Variations

  • It appears in GTA Vice City and GTA Liberty City Stories as the original M60. Its bipod has been folded and the box magazine is not inserted. Instead, the bullet belt drapes off the gun.
