Geoffrey (DayZ) 3 Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) Hey, I was at a crash site last night and I had a bit of a dilemma.I was walking to the crash site with a M4A3 CCO in hand and an FN FAL AN/PVS-4 in my backpack. and I found an M16A2 M203, only with a flare and a couple of used makes to come with it.....obviously My M4 and the M16 take stanag mags, I was just highlighting that I had something for M203 at that point.Which one should I have done? Keep my M4 or take the M16? I've already made my choice, just curious to see other peoples opinionsCheers Edited September 11, 2012 by Geoffrey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdz (DayZ) 238 Posted September 11, 2012 M4A3 would be my pick, same damage as the M16 but it has the red dot sight, full auto and the foregrip for reduced recoil.I've had an M4 holo with HE rounds for the M203 and I've never had a use for them 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narsil1 24 Posted September 11, 2012 M4A3 CCO is a keeper of course.M16 M203 has horrible iron sights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4Lex 15 Posted September 11, 2012 yeah n the m4 cco also comes with a flashlight attachment for those scary nights in chernarus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
idunc 62 Posted September 11, 2012 I would have definitely gone with the M4A3 CCO. Let's hope that was your choice :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banicks 55 Posted September 11, 2012 (edited) FN FAL - NV and Thermal scope is ace. But highly dependent on ammunition at crash site, even if it only had one no mag, I'd probably still take the FAL and search for more crashed helis at other locations for ammo.Personal preference really.

There is no thermal, and you cannot turn off the nv. Therefore, it is near-useless at day. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Va3ryn 36 Posted September 11, 2012 M4A3 CCO would have been my choice Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Geoffrey (DayZ) 3 Posted September 11, 2012 I would have definitely gone with the M4A3 CCO. Let's hope that was your choice :S That was indeed my choice! haha, I picked up the M16 and remember how horrible the sight was because of the M203 sight behind it.

Geoffrey (DayZ) 3 Posted September 11, 2012 Another note I left out. There was also an M14 on the ground at that crash site too, but there weren't any mags for it, so I just left it, my luck with finding sniper rounds is not very high....the only rounds I do find are for the M24...

NickM (DayZ) 57 Posted September 11, 2012 In that instance I would have dropped the FN-FAL, kept the M4A3, and grabbed the M14.DMR mags are all over the place.If you find 4 M24 mags, they can be combined for a DMR mag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember I found a m14 with DMR mags and left it behind like "stupid gun doesn't even have the right ammo" :facepalm: I also got rid of an m24 because I though the ammo was too hard to find :facepalm: (the DMR, m24, and m14 all use the same ammo)as far as the m16, I only really like the one with an acog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hatfieldcw 184 Posted September 12, 2012 If you have a tent or truck or something and can have a gun stashed for special occasions, I say get an M203 and some flares. They're just fun to put up in the night sky. I wish they'd cause zombies to stop and stare upward so they'd be momentarily blind and deaf, but it's enough just to enjoy the light show.And yeah, the M14 is a boss gun. If it weren't for the Mk. 48 mod 0 beating it in every category (except style, obviously), I'd never use anything else. Up close, far off, the M14 solves problems.
