Trading 5.56mm rounds for ak mags or binocs. PM if interested.

Those are general areas in which they can be found. Somebody posted in another topic a map which pinpointed the exact location of all of them, and they are over 70. But search in those general areas and you will find some.

Something like this should be suited for a ex-soviet bloc country. They are still around today. And if we are on the topic of new locations, I would love a wide-spread area like this. Maybe on the north plains.

More interesting would be to see a mine of some sorts with tunnels and different levels, maybe a large prison camp. That would be more in the style of Chernarus.

Want to swap M4 with M68 red dot all pristine (except handguard which is damaged), 1x30mag 2x40mag 1x20mag and 33 spare 5.56 rounds Looking for an AKM any condition + 1/2 mags.

Comes down to preference really. If you are conservative with your ammo, use semi-auto and generally prefer to avoid a fight rather than start one, like I do, go with the M4. If you like to spray, hunt and KoS go with the AKM since there's ammo all around.

Got one just now at 030 046, NE of Lopatino. M4 with 5 mags and a red dot scope, all pristine/worn

Would be nice to add this handguard, and remove the RIS and other improbable attachments.

After 3 days of searching and not finding one akm (found a heli and an m4 though without any ammo), I decided to screw it and head south. I finally had some luck, in the military barracks near Pavlovo, found one under a bed, hard to spot if I haven't gone prone. So be sure to check thoroughly every room.

I have yet to find an akm or m4 since the patch. Couple of SKSes and Mosins but full-auto weapons are more rare now, which is great.

The bigger tents, those without the wooden floors, used to spawn a lot of ammo and weapon parts/optics/attachments. They don't anymore. You can however find some parts in the two nearby mini towers (those with camo net on them). Found a RIS and a flashlight for my M4 and a compensator for the Mosin . But that's about it. Weapon parts/attachments seem to be very very rare this patch. Which is good, but still it kinda renders the whole point of those tents useless. I'm guessing they need to add more weapons/gear to fill them. Pre-patch, I was able to fully mod my m4 and also get extra scopes and attachments. That was just insane.
