Why do so many A Team (M60's?)weapons turn up?
I can understand why they get confused for :AFLogo:, but that doesn't explain the numbers that seem to turn up, it's not like you see loads of A Team figures about, just the guns?

I have about 20 of them, I assumed they must have come with quite a few different figures, not just A-Team? Or maybe it was because all the A-team came with the same gun whereas AF had a few different types...

8 A team figures all came with this rifle, also a few other Galoob and Glasslite figure lines used it too.

A-team
Bluethunder
TJ Hooker
Streethawk

Looks like galoob got their moneys worth from that mold ? although the foreign ones have no trigger guard.

that's not an M-60. The M-60 was the weapon that Stakeout and Quickfire came with. That's not even a real gun as far as i can tell. Skip's weapon was the SLR assault rifle.

There is a version of the M60 with a forward hand grip and I think it had a slightly shorter barrell.

According to the Galoob packaging all 8 A-team figures came with this M16 ?

So according to them this is an M16 not an M60 although I know it looks like neither !

4 of these rifles were also packaged with the A-team headquarters.

A similar rifle was packaged with Bluethunder, Streethawk and TJ hooker figures.
(same rifle missing trigger guard)
