These guns were used experimentally from 1921 until 1937. They had lightweight barrels and the ammunition fed only from the left side. Service trials raised doubts about whether the guns would be suitable for aircraft or for anti-aircraft use. A heavy barrel M1921 was considered for ground vehicles.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Browning_.50_caliber_machine_gun?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-26">[26]</a> John M. Browning died in 1926. Between 1927 and 1932, S.H. Green studied the design problems of the M1921 and the needs of the armed services. The result was a single receiver design that could be turned into seven types of .50 caliber machine guns by using different jackets, barrels, and other components. The new receiver allowed right or left side feed. In 1933, Colt manufactured several prototype Browning machine guns (including what would be known as the M1921A1 and M1921E2). With support from the Navy, Colt started manufacturing the M2 in 1933.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Browning_.50_caliber_machine_gun?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-27">[27]</a> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/FN_Herstal?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="FN Herstal">FN Herstal</a> (Fabrique Nationale) has manufactured the M2 machine gun since the 1930s.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Browning_.50_caliber_machine_gun?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-28">[28]</a> General Dynamics, U.S. Ordnance and Ohio Ordnance Works Inc. are other current manufacturers.[<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] A variant without a water jacket, but with a thicker-walled, air-cooled <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Gun_barrel?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Gun barrel">barrel</a> was designated the M2 HB (HB for Heavy Barrel).

These maximum rates of fire are generally not achieved in use, as sustained fire at that rate will wear out the bore within a few thousand rounds, necessitating replacement. In addition to full automatic, the M2HB can be selected to fire single shots, fire slowly at less than 40 rounds per minute, or fire rapidly for more than 40 rounds per minute. Slow and rapid firing modes use 5–7 round bursts with different lengths of pause between bursts.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Browning_.50_caliber_machine_gun?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-32">[32]</a> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9e/M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg/220px-M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="157" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="2100" data-file-height="1500"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 157px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9e/M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg/220px-M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="157" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9e/M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg/330px-M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/9e/M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg/440px-M2_-_24th_MEU.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a> <figcaption> A U.S. Marine mans a .50 caliber machine gun as part of a security force during a training exercise with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit in November 2002. </figcaption> </figure> The M2 has an effective range of 1,830 metres (2,000 yd) and a maximum effective range of 2,000 metres (2,200 yd) when fired from the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/M3_tripod?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="M3 tripod">M3 tripod</a>. In its ground-portable, crew-served role as the M2HB, the gun itself weighs 84 pounds (38 kg) and the assembled M3 tripod another 44 pounds (20 kg). In this configuration, the V-shaped "butterfly" trigger is located at the very rear of the weapon with a "spade handle" handgrip on either side of it and the bolt release in the center. The spade handles are gripped and the butterfly trigger is depressed with one or both thumbs. Recently, new rear buffer assemblies have used squeeze triggers mounted to the handgrips, doing away with the butterfly triggers. When the bolt release is locked down by the bolt latch release lock on the buffer tube sleeve, the gun functions in fully automatic mode. Conversely, the bolt release can be unlocked into the up position resulting in single-shot firing (the gunner must press the bolt latch release to send the bolt forward). Unlike virtually all other modern machine guns, it has no safety (although a sliding safety switch has recently been fielded to USMC armorers for installation on their weapons and is standard-issue for the U.S. Army for all M2s). Troops in the field have been known to add an improvised safety measure against accidental firing by slipping an expended shell casing under the butterfly trigger.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Browning_.50_caliber_machine_gun?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-33">[33]</a> The upgraded M2A1 has a manual trigger block safety. <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg/170px-Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="238" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="1500" data-file-height="2100"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 170px;height: 238px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg/170px-Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg" data-width="170" data-height="238" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg/255px-Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/2/2d/Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg/340px-Twin_M2HB_machine_gun.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a> <figcaption> Twin M2HB machine gun during a pre-action calibration fire (PACFIRE) exercise in May 2005 </figcaption> </figure> Because the M2 was designed to operate in many configurations, it can be adapted to feed from the left or right side of the weapon by exchanging the belt-holding pawls, and the front and rear cartridge stops (three-piece set to include link stripper), then reversing the bolt switch. The operator must also convert the top-cover belt feed slide assembly from left to right-hand feed as well as the spring and plunger in the feed arm. This will take a well-trained individual less than two minutes to perform. The charging assembly may be changed from left to right-hand charge. A right-hand charging handle spring, lock wire, and a little "know-how" are all that is required to accomplish this. The M2 can be battle-ready and easily interchanged if it is preemptively fitted with a retracting slide assembly on both sides of the weapon system. This eliminates the need to have the weapon removed from service to accomplish this task.

This ammunition was type classified in 1993.[<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed">citation needed</a>] <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"> <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/File:US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-file-description"> <noscript> <img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg/220px-US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="157" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="2100" data-file-height="1500"> </noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 220px;height: 157px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg/220px-US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg" data-width="220" data-height="157" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg/330px-US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/9/93/US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg/440px-US_Navy_070821-F-8678B-034_Machinery_Repairman_Fireman_Edward_O._Pastoral_mans_a_M2_.50_caliber_machine_gun.jpg 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a> <figcaption> M2 with blank-firing adapter </figcaption> </figure> When firing blanks, a large <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Blank-firing_adapter?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Blank-firing adapter">blank-firing adapter</a> (BFA) of a special type must be used to allow the recoil-operated action to cycle.

The subvariant designation Browning Machine Gun, Cal. .50, M2, HB, TT was only used for manufacturing, supply, and administration identification and separation from flexible M2s. A number of additional subvariants were developed after the end of World War II. The M2 Heavy Barrel, M48 Turret Type was developed for the commander's cupola on the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/M48_Patton?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="M48 Patton">M48 Patton</a> tank.

With the machine tools available at that time, the dimensions that established the location of the bolt face and the depth of the chamber could not be held tightly enough to control the fit of the cartridge in the chamber. The round can be too tight in the chamber and the gun would not fire, or be too loose in the chamber, resulting in a stoppage or ruptured cartridge. The other dimension that could not be held closely enough was when the firing pin would fall. The solution to these problems was adjustable timing and headspace ("Timing" is the adjustment of the gun so that firing takes place when the recoiling parts are in the correct position for firing; "headspace" is the distance between the face of the bolt and the base of the cartridge case, fully seated in the chamber); the operator had to screw the barrel into the barrel extension, moving the barrel toward the bolt face to reach the proper headspace with simple gauges to allow the operator to adjust to the proper dimensions. By the late 20th century, the M2 was the only adjustable headspace weapon in the U.S. inventory. With rising reports of injuries from improperly headspaced weapons, the U.S. military held a competition for a quick change barrel conversion kit with fixed timing and headspace in 1997. Three companies offered kits and <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Saco_Defense?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Saco Defense">Saco Defense</a> won the competition. However, funding was lost before the design could be fully evaluated and the program ended. In 2007, the military found money to start a new competition.

The US Army's own field manual concerning the employment of the M2 actually describes enemy personnel as an intended target.<a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Browning_.50_caliber_machine_gun?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB#cite_note-131">[131]</a> The origin of these myths is likely due to military commanders instructing their troops to conserve ammunition for targets that other lighter machine guns were not well suited to engage, such as aircraft or ground vehicles. One possible source of the misconception is from World War II, when American <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Half-track?_x_tr_sl=auto&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=en-GB"
