    Lee Enfiield

    Well it was also the SMLE No.1 MK3 that was in the Mod, not the SMLE No.4 Admittedly it'd be extremely difficult to find ammo for this in eastern europe though unless it's the Ishapor Enfield SMLE No.1 - that version still in use by the army and police in India was re-bored to the Nato.308 (7.62x51). These are still fairly common to find as well but the british.303 versions are far more common.

    Handgun & Rifle which shoot the same ammunition

    this could be done with a myriad of survival shotguns, and lever action rifles as well. The Russian military was quite fond of the Winchester Lever Action Rifle around the 1880's - I'm sure some of those lasted through to today. They also had a set of custom lever action rifles made to operate the 7.62x54R but only around 5,000 were made...So extremely rare rifle.

    PPSH-41

    It's not a rifle. It was service weapon but most would be taken back post war due to the need to keep this on hand for future conflicts. The design is also stolen from the Fins and was recovered tech from the Russians losing the Winter War that little conflict is also where the Molotov cocktail came into existence as the Fins didn't have a good means of Anti-tank weaponry...what they did have is a lot of Vodka. the PPSH and it's variants were based on the Suomi M31 a Finnish Sub-machinegun designed for urban warfare.

    Give Medkit more slots

    Why not have different versions of the medkit? Military Medkits, versus a Trauma Bag, versus the current "Basic" Home medic kit. Each of them of varying size and function. As it stands the current icon for one is pretty much a hard shell (nylon) home medkit, some people take those and stick them under the seat of their car for emergencies around the vehicle. But it comes with a lot of the stuff that'd be in an EMT's trauma bag.

    Gun Rarity [POLL]

    M911 doesn't exist I think you mean M1911 which is just the Colt 1911 Platform, there are quite a few variations now both curios collectors pieces from WW1 and WW2, as well as modern versions. Honestly the modern ones are far more common than the collectors weapons. Calling them classic is exactly right, they're more classy than anything else.

    Canteens, utility belts, and more (now with PICTURES!).

    Well MOLLE and ALICE should be present, but we should also see the Russian tactical rigging, they have their versions of both as well. I'm just not as up on my research for Russian gear as I am for Nato gear. With a quick search this is all I found for a visual reference right away that made sense as to what we're looking at.

    Canteens, utility belts, and more (now with PICTURES!).

    What you're suggesting is the addition of ALICE gear, as a whole. It's along the same lines as what I've suggest for MOLLE gear. I agree with the sentiment. And I like the whole canteen setup which that's still used by Nato forces either using MOLLE or ALICE gear.

    Start with knife

    I think if they added a single slot pocket knife that has a chance to become "Ruined" and is useless when opening things like cans would be okay to start with. Or have it degrade rapidly when opening cans with it. I personally carry a 3" pocket knife all the time. One of my co-workers called it a concealed weapon as I used it the other day to open boxes of new equipment. To me a pocket knife is a tool, not a weapon, so make it horrible for killing zeds and players with low damage but it'd be nice thing to have to begin with. On a side not. I used a pocket knife, a pair of pliers, and screw driver to open a russian ammo can with 7.62x54R ammo in it. So it's very possible to do while opening cans, just gotta be really careful and be precise with your actions. But I seriously need to get the special russian can opener for those damn things the next time I need one open.

    Ammo Box - Easier Usage Idea

    I personally don't think you should have an ammo box in that appearance or variety. Cause it's a .30 Cal US Ammo box which I can tell you right now is around 4 pounds of steel with nothing in it, and I have around 500 rounds of 8mm Mauser in one and it's closer to 40 pounds loaded so carrying one of those around even in a backpack isn't practical. and if the rounds are loose like I'd assume they are once you remove them from the box they're damn loud.

    Can an M24 put into consideration beside the Mosin?

    It's a platform that would arrive with the US Army as it's still a standard issues sniper platform along side the Barret M82 for the sniper Anti-material rifle. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M24_Sniper_Weapon_System Notably we'd see the M24A1 because the A2 and A3 varieties have reasonably rare ammo. As much as people are calling these uncommon, they're really not within the US Army and US Airforce for their actual company level use in ground troops. As it goes for overall Divisional Level deployment, you'll see far more DMR platforms like the M14EBR or the M110 for their rapid fire capability and the ease of using them at moderately closer ranges. Though I think we're more likely to see the civilian version, that being the R700. The biggest different between those is mounts and the long bolt pull applied to the M24 as a whole. though I don't think we need every weapon to have picatinny rails.

    Rifle Wraps for all Long Rifles

    Roy, you're fighting to keep this near the top more than anyone else. It's appreciated.

    The ONLY 50 That Should Be Here

    It fired an autocannon round (roughly 20mm I believe) used on light armor and fixed emplacement weaponry like anti-aircraft weaponry. It also had the capacity for a magazine in some variations. It proved effective against light armor targets and entrenched positions IE concrete bunkers and firing positions, but anytime it was used on PZ3 or PZ4 tanks it didn't have enough punch to go through anything but specific armor locations like the drop plates for view slots. It wasn't designed to be fixed with a scope so long range shots to hit those very small spots on moving targets lead to it's general ineffectiveness. And it really doesn't belong in this title.

    Mauser K98 Rifle

    Looks like it has the raised rear sights so yeah that'd be a Gewehr 98, Pre-WW2 where all the rifles were standardized to the 98k standard other than the sniper platforms. Though I dislike in the OP's description that this weapon was used by Germany through WW1 and through WW2. Also millions of these weapons were gift to Isreal upon its inception as a country following WW2 with all german markings ground out. So there are a few varieties floating around. Not to mention the ones Mauser sold to other nations. Namely Spain, Argentina, and Brazil all making massive purchases in the early 1900's.

    Scope realism

    Yup, the point is there and I completely agree we should have proper amplification is applied.
