In the days of belt fed machine guns I find it hard to believe a Lewis
is actually taken seriously. I could understand it in WWII when
anything that went bang was needed but now, just the logistics would
be a nightmare. That is one reason why NATO tried to standardize down
to 4 basic calibers.

Think British, man. Think British!

I can't say it truly is in the queens arsenal today, though it might be in reserves, but the Lewis showed its head at the Fauklands a few years ago.
