Developed in the late 1930s, the M2 60mm Mortar was the U.S. Army's go-to company level indirect fire weapon through World War II, Korea and Vietnam. In the latter two wars, the opposing forces are known to have been supplied with a direct copy of the M2 manufactured by the People's Republic of China, putting this weapon on both sides of the fight. The design is a traditional "Stokes" style, with a fixed firing pin at the endcap of the tube and a combination of tube angle and adjustment of round charges setting the range, allowing for great flexibility in angle of fire and a high rate of repeat fire on target with a trained crew. Included with the mortar is a bipod with hand-cranked adjustment mechanisms, spiked baseplate, cased M4 sight (in good order, spirit levels intact), straps, manual, and a wood transport case.
