Rare Weapons

Hey guys,

so i found a M24 today and I'm reall wondering if it's really worth carrying it. I love the gun but I have very limited Ammo right now and can't really find any.

So should I just swap it with the next weapon I find ? :-/

Or will I have to travel North in order to find more Ammo for it ?

This rifle uses DMR mags as well if I am not mistaken!

Keep it in a backpack and find another main weapon.

You can use DMR mags by right clicking them and splitting them into M24 ammo.

Is there a thread or wiki about which ammo can be re-distributed?

Heh guys thanks for info. Found M24 yesteday and had only 3x ammo clips (15 bullets) but my friend has DMR rifle and lots of mags for it.

I was getting pretty desperate for ammo and this info solves my problem.

p.s. Is it just me or does DMR rifle seems a lot better for sniping then M24? It has basically the same scope, dmr can use non-zoom option, dmr has 20 bullets in mag and fire faster.

Only downside of DMR I can see is that it somehow seems louder then M24 (my opinion).

DMR is a marksman rifle, it can't zero in like the m24 and other sniper rifles does, so you have to use the little dots on the scope to judge distance.
