[quote=“John Candlebury, post:7, topic:4898”]I like them!
But why dont you make them use 7.62 like the Ak uses, you know just so we don’t have more ammo that only works with a few guns, you could then have 7.62 tungsten carbide rounds and say that they were specially distributed to members of special forces only. You know backwards compatibility and reliance in cheap manufacture costs is mostly what Russia/The Soviet Union is famous of as far as i am concerned.
Also, shooting more common ammo would make them quite different from the Rivtech guns, I could use the assault rifle with the most common ammo most of the time and then switch too the carbide rounds rounds when shit really needs to get done, instead of carrying two firearms around like I do with the Rivtechguns. (Think of it as using the MGR in metro 2033 if you have played the game)[/quote]
Yes, I understand, but I don’t agree with the backwards compatibility regarding ammo. The Soviet Union abandoned the 7.62x39mm round in 1974, when they adopted the AK-74 and the 5.45x39mm round. Although Mikhail Kalashnikov said many times, that it was a stupid decision and the army would fare better if they were equipped with an improved 7.62x39, the 5.45x39 is the standard military round of the Russian army to this date.
Well, maybe I could include CW-24 with a 7.62x39 barrel. Clearwater Arms could produce an SVS-24 derivate for those budget shooters, which don’t want to pay for that expensive 6.54x42.
