There was a guy in 1 RCR Dukes Coy who about 5 yrs ago did indeed fire the C6 from the shoulder in the kneeling, just to prove he could.
he would do on ex with blanks and get jacked for inaccuracy and improper use (rightly so I add) but on a Live MG shoot his WO to prove to him how useless it was allowed him to do in a controlled manner... With balloons as targets (we have all done balloon shoots I am sure) so he did, and he hit...not as much as when used properly mind you but his inital three round burst would have been enough IMO to put the heads down of any enemy he would have had contact with, thus buying him time to get to a good shooting position.
could he have had a sustained fire fight..nope radiant heat as has been pointed out, but that inital burst would work... and I submit to your IA on contact... Double tap, Dash ,Down, Sights, Observe, Communicate, crawl
I think that first burst follows all the above procedures if used correctly, so why don't we look at it that way? And ask why can't we have a handguard for the front of the C6 for just that eventuality.
