To lvl a gun up after you unlock it you need to use certain squad?

The rifles for infantry I’m using now are the M1917Enfield and the SMLE MKIII and if I use them in my 53rd infantry division (which I want to do) I get 0 points to upgrade the rifles. However I found that if I use them in my 109th Engineer Reg (I don’t want to do) it lvls them up. Is this the way it’s supposed to be?

It seems like to me if you’re using a gun in battle you should get xp to lvl them up no matter what squad they’re in? Maybe I’m just crazy. Oh wait I am I actually have the paper work :slight_smile: But yea, any advice would be helpful.

Its a remnant of the old campaign and squad system and honestly deserves to be simplified.

No, only the use of squads can level up the weapons you see in teh upgrade system.
No matter which weapons you use in that squad.

I think you have some confusion, those 2 guns are not upgraded by 109th Engineer Reg.
You need to use the 315th Field Signal Battalion to get point to unlock the upgrade.
i.e. You need to use the squad that show the upgrade of the gun.

I don’t think it has anything to do with it.

This is what I was afraid of, it’s not just a bug or something you actually have to lvl brand new squads if you want to lvl up you gun. Even though any other infantry squad can use them in battle. Bummer but thanks for replies guys.
