I use 7mm SPAC for assault rifles and 9x70mm for MGs. 9x70mm is as close to a BR cartridge as it gets in Triggthiuda.

Not everything you read on wiki is true...
if in doubt look for comfirmation either from a linked source or if one doesn;t exist then a repudable soruce like janes.
The likelyhood of the XM8 showing up in a "real steel" form outside of the US or one of HK's archive rooms is slim to none due to various legal and licensing issues. I suspect someone has seen pcitures of a bunch of airsofters dressed up as the malaysian spec forces running around with XM8 AEGs and assumed that it was a legit picture.

it also shows how cheap M4s actually are if you buy them ina bulk, a mere $641 each...

Especially if you use 150 gr bullets like me (apparently it improves the ballistics immensely.)
I've carried seven AK magazines on me before. It was a little heavy, but far from unmanagable. European Steel (save for the one ChiCom mag; it's Asian from Asia). Here I am, 5'11" standing straight, 130lbs., not really in that great of shape.
EDIT TO ADD: Also, give your troops as many magazines as they can carry. Spare ammunition is dropped in crates that have cardboard bandoliers inside of them. What's inside of those (at least for current US military)? Ten rounds per stripper clip, three stripper clips per cardboard box/bandolier. Feeding guide to load them into mags is provided in the ammo tin. Retain your magazines upon reloading whenever possible, reload magazines when ammo is dropped.

AK ammo is heavy if your out of shape, maybe.
My PK gunner carried over 400 rounds of belted standard and Tracer, along with standard gear and never once did he complain.
Except for once. But it was hot. So excusable.
GMC Military Arms wrote:Sevvania wrote:The only difference between a GPMG and an LMG is how you use it, from my understanding. I think they're pretty much interchangeable terms.
Strictly it's medium machine gun and GPMG that are mostly interchangeable. The classic definitions are:
LMG: Designed for short bursts while mobile, firing from a bipod. Modern versions usually use intermediate rounds.
MMG: Designed for sustained fire while stationary, firing from a tripod and almost always using a belt feed. Generally the definition requires it use a full-size rifle round.
GPMG: Able to perform in either role, essentially a light MMG.
There's a few confusing ones like one of the QB-series which is classified as a GPMG even though it uses an intermediate round, or the PKP which I hear is deployed as an LMG (bipod only). Or those crap Japanese WW2 Hotchkiss clones which didn't have a belt feed, fired rifle bullets and were only classified as "heavy" because they somehow weighed as much as US 50 cals.

Holy shit. I thought I was a lightweight, but I've got twelve kilos on tou, despite being an inch and half shorter!
Equipment looks good to me. Bonus points for the SG30.

There are many unissued magazines you can purchase for the AK. They are like-new, unused surplus. That's what 3/4 of my magazines are. That's what a large portion of US-used AK magazines are. They never saw any military use, therefore, couldn't be "weeded out."

The K2 is a heck of a lot simpler. Far less small parts to lose, too: that washer that holds the takedown pin in place on the AR-180 becomes a frisbee if you just poke it off of there. Nothing of that sorts on the 'Woo. Meanwhile, my father's pre-ban K2 has seen several thousands rounds from shit-surplus to Hornady V-Max to Federal Tracers and has never had a single malfunction of any kind whatsoever, even while using AR mags from the mid-1980s. Besides, you can customize a 'Woo more than an AR-180. You can get a spring-tension-held scope rail for an AR-180. You can get a quad-rail and, if post-ban, any style of stock you wish on a Daewoo. That, and it also has a wonderful, adjustable gas block valve to survive in any conditions.
The AR-18 is still lighter, and perfectly easy to maintain. And less recoil, because short-stroke.
I'm sorry, I can't hear you over this customized AR-18.

Someone in that thread called Malaysians Indonesians.
I'm here just to say fuck that. No Malay is going to think of such glory as the SS2 Pindad.
On another less nationalist note: if Samoz ever finishes his SA-ARs I'm going to consider them against the EF88s.

Oo, nice Winchester 1895 that you got there. Also, is that last one's magazine detachable? If so, Points to you for stealing ideas from my head.GMC Military Arms wrote:
Yes, it's really a Sten. To be exact it's a Sten in an SL8 stock with a FAL recoil spring. I believe it is the happiest Sten there ever was.
Somewhat on topic (though this isn't for any of the nations I RP'd back in The Day), couple of sketches of a much-loved Etrusean rifle.
Little awkward because freehand and done in biro, stock on the second in particular didn't benefit from that but you get the general idea.

Yeah, was mainly looking at the Browning BLR for cues on what a modernised lever-action rifle would be doing, hence the switch to a side ejection port with a detachable magazine.
Ah, I personally dislike how little barrel was exposed forcing the use of a spike bayonet. If it went with no visible barrel, then I would be alright, along with if it had more barrel (like the Jungle Carbine, Mauser, etc)
