i am glad some1 likes it ^^. i am in love with it , that is the reason i play insurgent . but i love the scope more it needs more skill than any other guns . especialy shooting moving target needs to caculate the drop of bullet and speed of it( it is take maybe 1 sec to reach target at 300 meters ) and the speed of target too . i often shoot at 400 - 600 meters though yeah it is hard at first but now 1 shot 1 hit and it is right in the head ( humvee's gunners are my fav targets lol ) . and yes thanks the DEV for putting it in this game , love it .
............. what u need to know about it ? well its bullet drops at 180 meters , and if u hit some1's body at 300 meters it is no gonna do anything to him but wounded him so u need to shoot at the head that is the art of it i gess. the archer is the best map for it when we have distance and hiding places . my longest shot was 700 meters kill a sniper on the castle . and yes i am a lonely sniper , just give me THE enfield i ll be fine , i dont need spotters just need to be SL that would be it
hopefuly they put more rounds in it and i d love to see them in every insurgent map =>my dream

Pretty much loading in batches of 5. Dunno how possible that is though, but would be amazing, nay?
Just to bump the question, would this be do-able?

Nah I tried that before, BF2 can't handle loading in 'batches', only in singles or the entire magazine.

The lee-enfield is still in service. The Canadian Rangers (Artic Patrol) use them because under that much cold they are more reliable than modern weapons. For a weapon that old they are still quite good.
If I had the chance to own any weapon in WW2 it would be the Lee-enfield. Second would be the Thompson.

If you want one take your PAL course and you could buy a sporter to begin with for around 120$
Oh and I second the rangers still use them but government was suppose to send some C7s up there but looks like they never did.
EDIT: oh you mean in the wartime, sorry then

They did send them some C7's but the Artic Rangers soon dropped them for there old enfields as the C7's wern't as reliable in the artic weather. Due to how they are built and maintained. It's hard to keep a artic force modernized in the artic weather because almost everything will just quickly freeze up. Something the CF has learned and something other recently called 'artic nations' will realize if there even will be a war over the artic as Russia is claiming to be.
It's easy to assume that everything will work properly but there has never been a war in the artic or a need for military equipment other than submarines for research purposes. Canada has long been a artic nation and had citizens living there. The CF had setup some military bases on the artic and stationed a small military force there in which they recently upgraded. However those soldiers who are not use to having to live in those conditions found it extremly hard to live and operate in those conditions.
You had to boil water and poor it onto your vehicle if you wanted to get it started. Soldiers in the artic and there weapons just wern't meant to be.

Do others have a problem finding the center post on the sight?
I love it but at times I can't line up a shot past 50m as it's hard to find the center post.
High settings at 1400x900

It doesn't look like it. The only change is that now the sniper variant uses the hotted up 7.62x51mm NATO round that the other sniper rifles chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO use.

I'm wondering why the ironsight version isn't one-shot-kill while the scoped one is. It's still the same rifle and it's not like the bullet's power changes because you slapped a scope on the rifle.

Same rifle, different bullets perhaps.

Well of course, it's all relative, for what we know the in-game Taliban purchase armor-piercing bullets for their scoped Enfield. :/

Don't have armor pircing rounds for the Lee endfield i think not for the 303, or Need them do you know how power full they are, If you shot a hardwood gumtree 8feet deep and they still keep going.

SKS clips are 10 rounders.

Didn't really notice that, I was more worried about how his thumb is obviously clipping through the stripper clip shortly after that, whilst inserting the second 5 rounds.

I do like the enfield, but I'm not sure how it is better than any another rifle on single fire?

Should have more damage and be more accurate.
Enfield shoots .303 British, most assault rifles are 5.56 mm or thereabouts - AK74 is 5.45 and QBZ-95 is 5.8 mm.
.303 is about 7.7 mm, which is still slightly larger than the G3's 7.62, but .303 is longer than 7.62x51 > contains slightly more powder > slightly more energy (at the muzzle anyway).

Yes, much thanks to the FH2 developers for giving the mod the No4, it adds so much to the game.

That would be assuming that they're using equivalent powders. The
.303 which was developed 1889, uses slower burning powders than the smaller
.308, which was developed in 1952. Surprisingly, the 308 actually possesses a slightly larger case capacity.
I'm not sure why the .303 has a mystique on these forums. The .308 is capable of withstanding higher chamber pressures, and has superior performance, in addition to a more compact and mechanically forgiving package (Not rimmed). Pales next to many of it's contemporaries (
7.62x54r,
8mm Mauser, and the
.30-06 Springfield) while out performing a few (
6.5 Mannlicher-Carcano, and the
7.7 Arisaka).
That said, I love the No4 in game, I cannot wait to play with it on a populated server.. But if I chose to own an Enfield, it would either be in .308 or
.45ACP
