sostronk 334 Posted August 25, 2012 Note: Im talking about the likes of the Mag58 which can be used with a bipod and has an effective range of 800metres.Are they not in ARMA 2? I would think they would be in this mod. Particularly considering the mod currently has high end military sniper rifles (50cals). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bfleet95@gmail.com 33 Posted August 25, 2012 I think you can get the Mk.48, M249 and the M240 on DayZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hawk24 94 Posted August 25, 2012 (edited) Im talking about the likes of the Mag58The M240 is the american licensed copy of the FN MAGM240MK.48Both are classified as GPMGs as they both fire 7.62x51 NATO Edited August 25, 2012 by Hawk24 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That leads me to a different question, which is why are the effective ranges so low? 7.62 Nato should be effective at least to 800m just with a bipod.

dxze 20 Posted August 25, 2012 Yeah an M240 is basically a Gimpy (L7A2)... Mk.48 is basically a SAW that shoots a 7.62 round, made for US Special Forces originally iirc. And I'm not sure about the ranges, although I thought it would be easy enough to hit someone with an M240 etc at roughly 600/800m in DayZ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
