They seem to have a 81mm mortar in the inventory as well, so maybe it's not as terrible as on first sight.

(Slightly confused; 81mm mortar being used by "artillery"?)
It was apparently a 1942 vintage (later equipped with bipod) light mortar.
We're talking about the predecessor of the M224 here.
But it's still madness to have rules like that and to talk nonsense like that.
