Mauser G40k

Unused rifle inside of the Enlisted editor, last time I played around with it, it felt like it had stats similar to the Pre-war Kar98 except with more standard looking mauser sights, but of course I don’t have any datamine stats to really examine.

Would make a nice edition to the tech tree, or perhaps as a little event weapon like how the short MP35 was formally introduced.

No, seems more like bloat than an actually interesting addition. Oh joy! A bolt action carbine with a mediocre fire rate that will be inevitably outdone by the M1895 Short Rifle.

It’s neat for history and variety!

i have a conflict with this

on one hand it’s a pretty unique weapon produced in 15 copies

but on the other hand it’s basically a slightly different 98K

i don’t see people really grinding hard for one but maybe if put in a BR1 event squad with soldiers in unique uniforms it could be nice (and in a medium event like the chinese one we’re having now)

When I used it in the editor, it felt like it had an above-average rate of fire, might be around 60 RPM if I had to guess. Dunno if it takes a bayonet though, if it does, it could be an alternative to the mannlicher

Besides, its quite literally already in the game and animated and everything, all Darkflow has to do is plug it into the techtree in a folder somewhere, very little effort required.

Darkflow does have the power to adjust its stats anyway they see fit. Maybe it could be an event rifle with stats like the Arisaka 38, such as 70 RPM

indeed.

it’s effectively just a better kar 98k with no downsides beside the damage.

but it does have a better reload speed, better aim speed, less recoil, it’s lighter, and above all, shoots fasters.

only question mark is the damage.

because the pre war 98k has:

  gun__kineticDamageMult:r=1.58

but the g40k doesn’t.

so, it’s probably a faster vz 24 / gewehr 30/40.

personally, i would love an event squad with these

and as gun jesus stated, it was meant for gebirsjeager troops.

so. perhaps some dedicated cosmetic with them.

like, either their iconic jacket and hat:

or… just a small patch next to their uniform using the feldgendarmerie tunic

( which would be faster. as you don’t need new texture, just change the parameter color. )

and add an icon to it ( since the feldendarmerie originally had and still somewhat have yet hidden, patches to the shoulder )

I am actually really annoyed about the only Kar 98k that has the real iconic sight picture is the poor Volkssturm version. The Pre-war Kar98 is missing the front post cover (which does makes sense, but personally I dont like it) and the regular Kar 98k is zeroed at like 600m or something.

I want a good Kar98k with real sights.

well if that’s the case then he’s a great candidate for a BR1 event squad

It was more for the fact that at first I thought it was essentially a reskin of 98 and I don’t know how interesting it could be
but given the new information on its capabilities I would say it is now definitely superior to a K98
