treetop82 59 Posted December 2, 2014 DayZ Wiki says the AK74U will hold a PSO1 scope. However, I've had no luck attaching them to it. On the PSO1 scope page, it says it only fits the AKM and AK101. Anyone know which is correct? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nettles 396 Posted December 2, 2014 (edited) Does the AK74 need the plastic railguard first maybe? nevermind; just finished reading you guys saying it could only trade buttstocks. derp. Edited December 2, 2014 by nettles Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaingunfighter 917 Posted December 2, 2014 It's an error on the wiki page - I copied and pasted the standard AK attachments and simply removed the handguard ones from the AKS-74U. Hopefully we'll at least get the PSO-1 on the AK-74 in the future, though I wouldn't mind it being on the AKS-74U either. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chaingunfighter 917 Posted December 2, 2014 Does the AK74 need the plastic railguard first maybe? nevermind; just finished reading you guys saying it could only trade buttstocks. derp. Regular AK-74 can't take it either and it's almost the exact same gun as the AK-101, buttstock and handguard have nothing to do with it (hell, you can "make" an AK-74 with a PSO-1 if you give an AK-101 wooden furniture, the PSO will still fit.) Again, it'll probably be adjusted so that at least the AK74 can take it, with the AKS-74U being a possibility. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nettles 396 Posted December 2, 2014 Something that's always bothered me with games like this:Aren't bullet velocities different between the AK rifles that fire 7.62, 5.56 and 5.45 anyway? Wouldn't the PSO scope have only one of those calibers configured? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-Gews- 7443 Posted December 2, 2014 Wouldn't the PSO scope have only one of those calibers configured? It works for all of them in game, and in real life PSO-1 is for 7,62x54R. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gibonez 3633 Posted December 2, 2014 It works for all of them in game, and in real life PSO-1 is for 7,62x54R.Really hoping they fix the zeroing so it is correct and does not correspond to the weapon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WilliamMort 18 Posted December 2, 2014 Really hoping they fix the zeroing so it is correct and does not correspond to the weapon. To be honest the PSO scope does not suit the weapons of the AK family, Too much recoil paired with a high rate of fire and the relatively (Compared to 7.62x51 and in the future higher calibre rounds) low damage, I'd be completely fine with this, I usually end up chucking these in the tall grass to keep other players from making the mistake of picking them up.

Evil Minion 943 Posted December 2, 2014 Correction, neither the AKs74u or AK74 can mount the PSO currently. Only the AKM and AK101 can.Is this 0.50 stable? Because my information comes from 0.51 experimental (though only gamefiles I did not find any PSO-1 scopes in 0.51) - and this seems to imply that it is indeed supposed to fit.

Because my information comes from 0.51 experimental (though only gamefiles I did not find any PSO-1 scopes in 0.51) - and this seems to imply that it is indeed supposed to fit.This was indeed from stable. It's interesting that they see it as a bug. Sadly now 3 AKs will share the very rare PSO scope. This is something I really don't like, as the AKs are too similar as of now. Anyway, we'll see what they do with this in the future, but personally I would have either put the Ak74 or the AK101(Ak74m) in game, not both, but that's just me. Can't wait till they fix other weapons, such as the CR527 which uses the same sound fx as the mosin. Or the MP5k, which have the option to attach the OEM buttstock, but that was removed from game completely. Anyway, thanks for the correction and let's hope the weapons get more "love" eventually. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
