I seen the same thing but americans, AT4, M16's, M240 and praying to god...

interesting idea

I read the m14 can fire faster then an ak, its ok in game even up close

I dont suppose theres a miltia that uses the original mg42 design, I want one of those in game

Because in Cod2 i used to pwn with the SMLE sniper and still do from time to time when i play. Also because it has 10 rounds instead of 5, And the Cod2 crosshair is alot better then the mosin and kar one in that game.

oo i didnt realise, well, if u pwned with it in cod 2 then we need it ingame

lol gazz indeed. That was a terrible reason.

But significantly less often, yes? Also, praying to god is a lot different than "Praise god, we just whacked some fools". Generally soldiers are praying for themselves, not being thankful for the death of others (although I guess that's a valid prayer too).

Oh shut up you! I pwn plenty of noobs in FH2 when i do have it aswell!(When i dont get tk'ed by some noob who thinks he can shoot better then me with it's horrible crosshair)

... Seeing as how the Militia ingame represents a sort of "Freedom Fighters" group (And not really an organized militia with standardization), they'd probably use anything they can get their hands on. Hell they're already utilizing a mix of old WW2 & Cold War Soviet military hardware.

But if anything, the Kar 98 really isn't needed, unless you're going with variety.

The Militia faction is likely to be the chechnya rebels > >

Uh .. If Insurgents are so foolish, then why are they able to kill soldiers so perfectly organised and prepared? Like in any army, grunts are cannon fodder and cell leaders like officers stay afar to plan the next attack.

To return on the topic : I'd love to see that weapon as a pickup kit for Militia, but then, that would be a community add and nothing else =/

Because an awful lot of the Middle East has, at one time or another had "Property of Britain" Stamped on it, either as a formal part of the Empire or as a Protectorate, so its awash with Lee-Enfields. In fact, they're still produced locally in the Khyber Pass region of Afghanistan/Pakistan. And So are Martini-Henrys. And lets face it, those are what we really need. Because who wouldn't want to play Project: Zulu?

The K98 was shipped all over the world following the end of WWII. Both the Soviets and Allies captured massive stockpiles of the rifles and set about arming their allies with them, Militant groups from South America to Vietnam and most places in between have been given K98s over the past half century.

well i dont really care what weapon is used....but a little fact. we confiscated 3 mousers while i was in the anbar area....none of which had a scope but saw a pic of some marines that found one with a homemade silecer barrel on it...wish i had the pic...guess u will just have to take my word for it. we did turn one of those mousers into a badass bolt action pistol...and hung it on the wall in our TOC at op omar. pretty cool stuff

LtSoucy wrote:Still most modern insrgent or rebal groups dont aim, they spray so why would they use a bolt-action rilfe?

They arent just spraying they are praying as well!

Love it how every kid here has a PhD on Inurgent/Guerilla warfare.

Course they aim, they aim in your direction...

I do recall the devs stating that the militia are not specifically Chechen. Just in the same manner that the Insurgents aren't necessarily Taliban. Rather, they can represent any of the numerous insurrectionist/rebellious groups and/or organizations around the globe (or more specifically, around that region), be them fictional or real.

While we add the Kar98, we can add this ............

If such a weapon were added it may be cool to have it as a pick-up inside a barn or something like that. It would seem like some farmers rifle.

Have you seen those videos where the taliban are training rigorously or those videos where 11 year olds are practising shooting with aks? Of course in an ambush situation of course they're gonna shoot like that, but I highly doubt Insurgent and rebel groups fight like that in other situations.

Anyway there doesn't seem to be any reason not to have it in game if people wanna make it, as is the same situation with most things.
