MikeAP, per the APP-6 Mil Symbols for Land Based Systems (july 86) the symbol we have is for a machine gun (generic). Looking at 6A you are correct that a more definitive symbol would be a double bar for a light MG and a triple bar for a heavy MG. I'll note the issue and look to fix it for 2.1 and any forward projects.

Thanks for the detailed catch!
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
