Kar98k and Gewehr 41

the Gewehr 41 and the Kar98k in real life use the same ammo clip, so why make it different in game? i guess you can already know what im saying. just make the Gewehr 41 use the same clip as the Kar98k

its worth noting that both the g41 walther and g41 mauser dont share ammo despite both using the same kar98 clips last time i checked lmfao

if i were you, i would open a bug report about it

There’s a quite a bit of weapon magazine commonalities that aren’t properly integrated.

Issue is, the game only every gives you enough ammo for “one gun” so a big downside to having the secondary weapon personnel perk is that 2 guns share the same pool of ammo, but only gives enough for 1.

While I can see the potential for G41 users picking up ammo from random k98k drops and vice-versa (or anything that shares the stripper clip and ammo), the ability to do so is niche.

these 3 guns uses the same clips yet dont share the same ammo, idk why that.

wouldnt that be good, since lets say, you got a G41 for close range, K98 for long Range, G41 without ammo pouches is 40 rounds, K98 is 20, that would give 50 of the G41 counting with the starter magazine, and 25 for the Kar98k, 75 rounds, which is more than good to support 2 weapons

A G41 still carries enough damage to kill/down at relatively long range. If you need another shot- It’s an SA rifle with a fast rate of fire and a magazine twice as big. Just tap again.

Why would anyone pick the secondary weapon perk over backpacks instead of just getting an ammo pouch?

That perk has always been suboptimal.

its just an example, and as a G41 user (yes my rifles are full upgraded) it struggles a bit at longer ranges, the fire rate also isnt so usefull since the dispersion isnt that good, i had to shoot 5 rounds to kill a single guy, 2 hits, cuz of the dispersion, thats why i would understand having a K98 as a secondary

We might as well remove this perk, carrying two weapons in combat is just stupid FPS logic

i agree, mostly this perk is useless, the only one that has this perk by default is the radio operators but even in them i dont use secondary guns as i consider such a waste of silver
