No difference. However short and long versions of guns have differences.

Depends on the fire rate, if you're going full auto then deviation increases over time when you're shooting, same goes for single round but you can manage it easier if you time your shots right.

I feel like scopes make the guns less accurate at any range tbh. Give me an ironsight AR and it's a laser death beam, while scoped AR just spreads all over the place.

We do have different categories based on sight yes, although I'm personally not aware of their influence and why it's like this
Ask a coder.
example for recoil:
Code: Select all
if v_arg2 == "beryl"
if v_arg3 == "optic"
ObjectTemplate.createComponent SoldierBasedRecoilComp
ObjectTemplate.recoil.hasRecoilForce 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceUp CRD_UNIFORM/1.53/1.87/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceLeftRight CRD_UNIFORM/-0.99/1.65/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.zoomModifier 0.4
ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil 0
endIf
if v_arg3 == "opticugl"
ObjectTemplate.createComponent SoldierBasedRecoilComp
ObjectTemplate.recoil.hasRecoilForce 1
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceUp CRD_UNIFORM/1.485/1.815/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.recoilForceLeftRight CRD_UNIFORM/-0.99/1.65/0
ObjectTemplate.recoil.zoomModifier 0.4
ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil 0
endIf
if v_arg3 == "ironsight"
ObjectTemplate.createComponent SoldierBasedRecoilComp

ObjectTemplate.recoil.goBackOnRecoil 0
endIf
if v_arg3 == "ironsightugl"

always go for magnified scope,
close range = hipfire
long range = scope
mid range, suppress with hipfire and then shoot with scope in a firefight, otherwise just use scope.
of course, if you have luxary of BUIS then even better.

I think the issue is that there is a small period of time in which your view switches into the zoom that causes the placebo you're witnessing. It's always easier to keep your weapon trained on the target while pulling it up to your shoulder with CQB sights because the zoom shifts your perspective drastically which exaggerates the distance you have to pull your mouse to ensure you are still on target. This combined with recoil and deviation gives the CQB sights a fairly hefty advantage in a lot of scenarios, this is why a lot of experienced PR players prefer Ironsights to Optics in any situation.
