Stange, I thought slav guns would excite certain users.

Anyone in the military can tell you that M4A1s are very uncommon. Most rank and file personnel will be issued a M4. I know the equipment in the game leads to think Operators in the area that would have an M4A1, how ever I think it would be better suiting to the M4A1 have the rarity of a undamaged optic or press vest. M4s, have the settings Safe-Semi-Burst, while M4s have the settings Safe-Semi-Auto.

Yes, my mistake. M4 - Safe-Semi-Burst M4A1 - Safe-Semi-Auto

What should our next competition be?
stielhandgranate replied to mattlightfoot's topic in DayZ Mod Suggestions
How about a contest for "What firearm you would like to see in standalone", filter the ones that can't be in due to licensing issues and have a poll to determine the winner. -
Wrong. The British handed Lee Enfields and other firearms to the solivets during WW2 and khyber pass copies of the Lee Enfield found their way to east Europe after the Solviet-Afgan war.

I'm sorry I would like to see more content in the game where the devs are pushing realism. The fact is that hving similar items with different values adds more depth in the game.
-
Sorry, I thought this was the suggestions forum.

Machinegun issues like runaway guns and barrel changes would be a very good addition.

M4s are not M16A2 uppers. M16A2s have a fixed handguard on the upper and a rifle length barrel. The M16A4 upper has a flattop upper but a rifle length barrel as well. The mod had M4s and M4A1s and its a cheap way to add more content. One model may be better, but the other is more common. This also makes the M4A1 a higher value, and something to covet over a M4. Little things like this will help the gaming experiance.

I was stationed in South Korea in 2008, great place love the food and people there. Never witnessed a rusted bolt. I have witnessed rusted barrels,forward assists,triggers and light rust on rail handgurads due to people misusing their weapons and not keeping a dehumidifier in their arms room. Unless you are leaving the weapon apart for extended periods of time in a humid environment, or the protective finish on your bolt is worn off (which would require a replacement, NSN 1005-01-505-1035, tell your S4 to order a few if that is the case) other parts would rust first.

"the bolts in these weapons can rust very quickly and seize the bolt into the carrier." I'm an Armorer and never discovered a rusted bolt carrier. I think surface rust on the barrel and forward assist would happen first. "Later down the road of the weapon not being cleaned you start to get double feeds and stove top jams, which you would need a screw driver or gerber/leatherman/multi-tool to pry out the jammed, and now ruined rounds." An easier way to clear a double feed is to eject the magazine,lock the bolt to the read,and push the rounds out with your fingers from the magazine well. Time consuming, but requres no tools. Typically on a double feed, you will end up with one round with a bent casing, that you can still chamberfeed. To clear a stovepipe, you can just smack the casing out of the ejection port. "if they add the .50 cal machine gun we should have to do the head space and timing for it as well" Yes, and you should be able to walk guns out of headspace to sabotage them.

Any recent news on this subject? I remember hearing the devs took note of this request.

It is called a magazine unless you are talking about reloading a C96 pistol. Moving on, I would want this to happen. I would want to see COD kids to try this and not be able to hit anything farther than 7 meters, waste ammo, open the inventory to reload manually, then fume about how it isn't like the cowadoodys, then lose a gunfight to someone using a proper shooing method with a single firearm. I say add it in becuase in SHTF there would be idiots that would try to apply things that they saw on TV and video games dispite their disadvantages and get wrecked.

Land mines are pretty durable. The US military only uses the M18, which can be command detonated or victim activated but other countries still maintain tradional disk shaped mines for area denial. Keep in mind there are places in the world where landmines have been deployed for several years and are still armed and effective for their purpose. Also one does not need to bury the mine to deploy it on a paved road but can cover it up with junk and hope for someone to disturb it.

I have on on my AR-15, I like it, but you have to install an M16 length buffer,buffer tube,buffer tube spring, and remove the castlenut. You would need an Armorer's toolkit to do so. They are designed for M16 length barrels and can affect performance with AR-15s that have an M4 length gastube.

Way to prevent server hopping for loot
stielhandgranate replied to CedarFever's topic in Suggestions
You over thought this. All items near you despawn when you spawn in. No more douchebags spawning in to each military point to horde items to play cowadoody with. -
Really? thats quite an accomplishment.
-
Yes, All M4/M16s have a "Birdcage" Flash suppressor. It would be silly not to as it would damage your barrel threads when you bang into something when your weapon is slung.

Press Vest ONLY for Streamers and Youtubers
stielhandgranate replied to atmaca (DayZ)'s topic in Suggestions
Maybe because it's an interceptor vest that can protect you from small arms. Also we don't need to feed the egos of prima donna streamers that think they are unique special snowflakes with special items and incentives. -
If anything older handguns like the C96,High power,Nagant Revolver,1911,Makarov,Tokarev would be a good supplement to military firearms like the M9,M45,M11 and MP-443 as most of these don't require licensing and offer choice to players.

No, how about a notice that a streamer is online so it can be easier to hunt them down and grief them? -

I'm sorry the game is dated post cold war as technology like MICH helmets,MAGPUL,Knight's armament rails were developed after the fall of the soviet union.
