General purpose machine gun
A general purpose machine-gun (GPMG) in concept is a multi-purpose weapon, a machine-gun intended to fill the role of either a light machine-gun or medium machine-gun, while at the same time being man-portable. However, performance in either role may be inferior to a weapon specifically designed for that role.
