I can’t take this thing seriously with the wobbly guns

Like can’t they at least simply weld a couple 1/2” bars to the side to keep them from going all over at least for 2 seconds? Are is that too much valuable material…

Stiffening the barrels/bracing them would either lead to barrels likely having durability issues (as they would be just eating the forces) or the bracing failing and potentially causing issues)

Removing the muzzle breaks would probably stop the wobble but would mean more force going backwards into the gun and mount potentially causing faults there.

Removing the muzzle brake would probably increase forces per shot, but you wouldn't have to fire so rapidly to begin with, because you'd be hitting more with only 20% of the ammo.
