What weapon loadout do you have? (Hi-Tech)

Recommended Posts

Yay! I finally managed to find an L85A2.

But It surely makes a better sniper rifle than it does assault weapon, it's gotta be useless for close-quarters-combat.

So I've gone for M4A3 CCO SD, for cqc and l85A2 for sniping/spotting. Is there any downside to using SD stannag mags for the L85 reather than non-SD?

What do some of you guy's have?

SD Mags are far less accurate, don't use them.

L85A2 is actually pretty bad if u want to use it as a sniper rifle (aim unreliable after 300 m mark)

Using SD mags makes shots pretty much silent for zombies, but is still heard as a normal shot (non silenced) by players.

Myself, ive got M4A1 CCO SD and AS50 in backpack (switching to fn fal pvs 4 at night time - <3 my stock)

Mk 48 Mod 0 - PvP/Out of Hand PvE

M9 SD - General PvE

Mk 48 has 600m reliability as well as the ability to put 100 rounds in the air and only needing 1 to hit for a kill. I'm happy with my choice.

By M4A3 you meant M4A1 right? There isn't a legit SD version of M4A3 in Day Z. L85A2 is quite poor for sniping due to its short effective range, it's technically just another assault rifle.

not just technically, it simply is an assault rifle

Oh, yes I mean A1, I've just been using the A3 for so long.

But I think I'll have to use it (L85) as a sniper because on a non-CH server it's no use up close, but then I can't have another sniper rifle for the same reason.

I guess it will be better for me to get bored of the novelty value of infa-red and then replace the L85 with a 'proper' sniper rifle.
