Martini-Henry and Veterli Vitali concepts for a hypothetical future event(s)

One cool things events have is the ability to collect cool stuff, so even though these firearms wouldn’t be meta their sole purpose would be fun and having something nice in your collection. My focus is on WW1 era weapons and something around such era.
They probably did not see the use in ww2 or ww1 warfare, but very likely see the use in certain patrols or guards at such era.

  1. Martini-Henry (Allies)

    it was used in many calibers such as:

Though it would make it cooler to be in .577 caliber as its a black powder gun, perhaps making it have similar stats to a berdan rifle

  1. Vetterli-Vitali 1870 (Axis)

Used from 1871 to 1891

10.4 cartridge would give it a better cooler factor, as its a black powder cartridge.
This weapon did see use in WW2 but it was using a 6.5 carcano cartridge

We already have Berdan …would be nice if we could have antique firearms like these in an event. They surely wouldn’t be shredders but fun and unique to play with.

Single fed bolt action? Or not even a bolt then right? Just a… single shot rifle hu? Dont we actually have one of those in the game already? I think Moscow CBT had a gold order one.

Veterli adopted by italians was single shot at first, swiss had used it with tubular 6 round magazine, which italians adopted later after which they moved onto 4 round box magazine, which i featured in that picture.

The british single shot rifle is one of iconic rifles from the british empire, it being a single shot obsolete weapon adds more to its charm and fun. As well as making it iconic 19th century firearm for what it was used. So in turn also being a nice collectible in game

Maybe for a Home Guard unit. They weren’t issued them but you can bet that somebody had one lying around.

both would be awesome to play with !

martini-Henry just looks so beautiful !
