SKS and Enfield

[dtacs]

Now we got smle sniper with 13 bullets >.< But I was asking if Taleban medic could have sks from right clic? Is SKS maid to be more accurate than 47? Love that hated old gun ^w^

This is actually a pretty smart idea. It limits the Medic to a rear role instead of having an automatic weapon just like the .303, but with less power.

Why does everyone has Enfield? Isn't the Mosin Nagant a more appropriate weapon?

[Souls Of Mischief]

FYI, British fought against the Afghans in the 19th century.

Yep...the 303's in the hands of the Insurgents are pretty dam old. Some muskets even turn up in weapons caches sometimes.

But Isn't the Nagant more prominent? all over the world

I find that emptying a whole mag in an enemy is the best probable solution because of the low kill ratio of the SKS. Its a miracle to kill an enemy with it.

You can kill an enemy with one shot, even from ranges like 200 meters. Just stay calm and aim.

I'd love to see the nagant return, however the previous model is not on par with the enfield model, while the nagant might be more suitable its just not the same level of quality the mod has managed to reach imo, I'm sure it could find a home in several teams as either primary/alternate sniper.

That can also be said about the SKS, I find at the very least the textures on it are horrible in comparison with the PR level.

[General Dragosh]

Well it shouldn't be. it uses the 7.62 x 39 so it should share the damage stats of the AK47.
And I know as a fact that the AK47 is not weaker than 5.56

+ The SKS should be a bit more accurate than AK47 since it has a longer barrel than AK47

[BenHamish]

Looked it up just now and yes, the SKS is more accurate than the AK. 300m accuracy would make the SKS a useful weapon.

Edit: Sorry, realise how silly that sounds. 150m accuracy would make the SKS a useful weapon.

[General Dragosh]

The only thing i really miss on a SKS would be a scope

*goes and looks if there are some*

Yeah the Texture does look a bit wonky, a bit plain, of course i can wait for my retextured SKS =D

It's one of a great many of PR's models that came from random Battlefield 2 mods (in this case Battlefield: Korea) and subsequently got sucked up by PR when their mods died. That said, I believe the texture job is actually PR's. See here -

... That's a far redder texture than we have now.

Anway, I'm sure given time the SKS will be updated - I think Tim270 actually had a new SKS model done up.

On topic, I think the Nagant should be the sniper rifle for the Militia and the Enfield as the medic/sniper rifle for the Taliban.

I hope the SKS stats (accuracy, damage, etc) don't get changed one bit. It's perfect the way it is, IMO. I'd have one with me in PR all the time if it was possible. (put a hidden SKS pickup kit in every map just for me <3). Just the model/texture needs remaking.
