BTW, the ROF of the Fa-Mas is ca 1000rpm, it is quite useful for suppressing fire, but the 60bbs in a mag don't last long on auto. |
Your singing my tune my friend. I play with two 'sets', one standard US infantry and another Opfor set. It gets annoying to see gear whores trying to portray a Ranger Battalion and having more gear than a real ranger would ever carry.
US set
CA M15a2, Trijicon ACOG
TOP M249 (even got a real disintegrating link with some real rounds for that authentic touch)
Standard BDU's, IBA plate carrier, Nylon Vest (issued gear have no idea who manufactured it) Pistol belt, H-Straps, 2 canteens, camelbak (stealth model) 36 magazines, Buttpack (BHI i think)
OPFOR set
King Arms Dragunov (real wood)
US Flightsuit/overalls. web belt, with Y straps, 2 canteens Chicom SKS carrier vest 10 mags.
