Isn't drum reloading supposed to be faster?

Joe on his way to roast people and contribute nothing to the discussion.

Nah, no roasting today. Just a wink about that table I’ve seen “somewhere” already :smile:

Typically you would have your belt in the ammo box. (Or at least you should in the ideal circumstances.)
So it’s a difference between

  • place down the box, open it and pull out the belt (much faster with the help of assistant gunner)
  • take the container in hand (maybe extract it from the carrier device), attach it to the gun, pull out the belt

In the end both require quite a lot of actions before being able to fight and the main factor is the experience of the gunner.

But I’m just guessing like the internet gremlin I am.
Ideally someone who was MG3 gunner should be asked.
(MG3 specifically as it still uses 50r drum holders unlike for example M240, so it’s relatively close to what we discuss.)

But in game soldier pulls the belt from his ass. So I guess we can end the “realism” part of the discussion here.

He has for the past two months been constantly sending me private messages- he is still reading here in the forums, he just stays quite for no reason.

Actually I told him like 20 times that he should stop sending me private messages, even a forum moderator got involved.

Parrot is planning something, he kept talking about some weird masterplan to make some sort of a big come back… honestly I don’t know whats up with this dude, all I know is that he loves that “big action mod gamemode” or what ever it was called… so yeah, the parrot is still here, he just refuses to talk to us.

The scaled down version of the Type 97 ATR is used for the live game, the actual size is huge.

It’s shame Japanese engineers didn’t make bayonet for this weapon as well.

Shouldn’t the Japanese be your main faction, considering you are crazy in love with bayonets?
