PzB.38/39 Fire rate increase

Increasing the fire rate of the PzB.38/39, currently they both fire at 14 rpm (while the Text of the 39 even sayes "because of the 2nd Magazin can be reloaded faster (which itself is a strange thought) and actually simply reduces the ammo amount from 30 to mere 20 rounds)

Reading from another topic, the reload process is currently Eject cartrige → Open ammo box → take ammo → close ammo box → Reload.

However that is just useless many steps, the box can simply be left open, the rounds are in a spring steel clip that holds them really tight so that they dont fall out.

The Pzb.38 upon fireing opens up, ejects the cartrige and stays open, till you put in a new one and press down on the grip (button).

The PzB.39 is simply, move the Trigger forwards (its on a Toggle), which ejects cartige, put in new, and pull back on the Trigger done.

Which is the most illogical, is that the GrB.39 reloads allmost 5x Times as fast (14 rpm → 55 rpm), while even having more steps to do, because its a muzzle loaded Grenade.

Germany currently does not have any semi auto AT Rifles, so increasing the reload speed of both of them would be really nice, perhaps to also 55 rpm like the GrB.39.

just some kind of text error
GrB.39 have 3.9s reload, definitely not 55 RPM

It does also say 55 rpm. But upon testing, indeed the Reloadspeed appears to be the Firespeed also, but overall my Suggestion still stands, to increase the reloadspeed of the PzB.38/39.

And also a correction of the Pzb 38 animation would be welcome. The fact that we can see the loaded bullet because the breech isn’t covering it doesn’t make any sense, and it goes up only when we pull the trigger. This game really has some cursed animations sometimes, like the mid-reload for pistols, or the Stg44 or Fg42 kind of AKish reloads. The guy doesn’t even press the mag release button on the Stg when reloading. :expressionless:
