I was forced to carry a M2 my 1st few months in RVN-wimpy POS.
All our CIDG guys had them.
Charlie had them.

I was next to a guy who took a through and through carbine hit to his shoulder.
He said he felt nothing but his arm was numbed for a couple minutes.

Just not really effective as a combat weapon fom my experience.
