      I know you mean ERA, but this is a great opening to talk about the M113 (Gavin) variant equipped with MCCMs.

      The Modular Crowd Control Munitions purposefully look like Claymores for an intimidation factor. In function they are like a low powered claymore, replacing steel bearings for rubber, and replacing C4 for a .04 inch sheet explosive.

      Only a small number of M113 (Gavin) vehicles were modified to mount MCCMs. They were used for POW camp control in Iraq, with MCCMs to be deployed in the event of a large scale riot.

          That’s why the summoning ritual must be performed.
