This video explores the M8C, a .50 caliber self-loading rifle designed as a spotting rifle for the 106mm M40 recoilless rifle. Its unique 12.7x77mm cartridge and tracer-spotter projectiles allow for precise aiming adjustments before firing the main weapon, crucial for operators who must relocate immediately after firing due to the recoilless rifle's significant signature. The example shown is mounted on a tripod for convenience, though this is not its historical configuration.
