M4A1 CCO SD Ammo?

[zorisx 7]

I have the required 5.56 ammunition STANAG but the gun wont load it. Do I require STANAG SD for a SD weapon?

Yes, the SD requires SD ammo, the normal guns can use the SD ammo, but not the other way around...

What FireBike said. All guns that have silenced variants need the SD ammunition - silenced weapons can only fire subsonic rounds. This applies to all silenced guns - the M9, the M4, and the Bizon (technically, there's only one ammo type for it).

Note, though, that unsilenced guns can fire STANAG and STANAG SD, and there is an effect on how much zombies can hear you (SD is more quiet).

Thanks alot fellas, is this realistic in any way?

It's semi-realistic.

In the real world, the SD round is what makes the weapon silent. The suppressors effect on noise level is nowhere near enough by itself.

The suppressor will help with the muzzle flash though.

Oh okay thats pretty neat. Well if anyone is up for trading STANAG SD ammo, let me know.
