The '''Knight's Armament Company LMG''' (KAC LMG), also known as the '''Stoner 96''', or the '''KAC Stoner LMG''', is an American light machine gun. In the early 1990s, famed firearms designer Eugene Stoner collaborated with Knight's Armament Company to improve his previous failed Stoner 86 LMG design introduced by Stoner's ARES company in 1986 (which in turn was derived from the [[Stoner 63]] design). The Stoner 96 scraps the STANAG magazine well alternate feed option on the Stoner 86 and was simplified compared to the 86.
