There seems to be some dispute over which of the following weapon types are allowed in a Standard Weapon Mount; is it possible to get a clarification on this?
Assault Rifles
Sniper Rifles
Shotguns
Light Machine Guns
Medium Machine Guns
Heavy Machine Guns
The contention is this part of the text:
"Standard weapon mounts may hold any assault rifle or smaller-sized weapon and 250 rounds of ammo."
I'm baffled by this one. What, are people trying to argue bullet size, or ammo capacity, or physical size of the weapon or something? That's just pedantic, if so. SR's weapons categories are pretty straightforward, IMO. And it's by category, not by weapon.
So Machine Guns, Cannons, and Missile launchers are all heavy Weapons.

Furthermore, what happens when you put a non-belt fed weapon into a weapon mount? Does it's reloading mechanism change to belt feed if it isn't already? If not, how does the weapon mount reload?
It's hand waved. Don;t overthink these things. It does what it does.
