Agreed. As the article notes, the mPL makes the SL, MG and HMG obsolete (barring weight issues for non-Elemental designs, of course) and for me makes the optimum weapon for circumstances where resupply might be in question. The ERmL is slightly longer ranged, but not enough for me to be comfortable exchanging that for the loss in damage, accuracy and anti-infantry capability. Although it is overshadowed by the APGR, the mPL is without a doubt one of the outstanding Battle Armor weapons.
