Me Want FNAB43 Rate of Fire Increased while keeping it in B2 Just like the Russian PPS-43

Oh shit. Now theres evidence… ngl I like the slow rate of fire of the FNAB even if it isnt realistic its good for accuracy, ammo conservation and sustained fire.

In Germany, it may be a BR4, although I hope Italy can serve as a mini camp with the highest BR3 for players to play. In addition, the actual firing rate of the Bergman MP35 is different from that in the game. If you are interested, you can search for related videos

That’s why I suggested buffing the FNAB firerate to 480rpm, so that it doesn’t take away from weapons like the Beretta M1 and still gives the Beretta M38A 40 round a reason to exist.

Doesn’t really say anything at all.
I don’t think it would be in any way difficult to make a modern copy of any WW2 smg with deliberately increasing its rate of fire.
This video is far from being any meaningful evidence.
But I guess people always find the way how to justify nonsensical powercreep.
The fact is, both PPS smgs with their current stats doesn’t belong to BR2. And they should be put on BR3 instead.

How did you know ?
I deliberately studied to become a gunsmith and spent years on bureaucracy to get license to manufacture a single full auto fnab just to justify its increased rof on enlisted
fk me, paid tens of thousands for equipment to make one and you caught me, jeez.

i think theres 2 variants, 40 rounder for the military and 20 rounder for the police
IMOP 600 should be what the FNAB should be set at as it’s base, with 690 after being maxed. This would match the PPS-42 and place it more correctly with it’s actual common ROF. The key phrase for me is “MOST COMMON”, which is what DF should be setting “ALL” their weapons to.

This is 100% not an original weapon. The weapon is assembled from several guns. It shoots non-original cartridges. It is possible that the spring is different.
You’d better find evidence from contemporaries of this weapon, which will confirm that the rate of fire was high.
No, this figure was literally invented by the author of the Wikipedia article. It has no relation to reality.

id say its rather hard these days to find a weapon that is 100% in the shape it left from factory.
Considering theres ~7k ever made fnabs.
But good luck finding one.
Quite sure majority of those parts are from other fnabs.
Dunno, sounds quite far fetched to stick a mg42 bolt in there and expect 1200rof.
considering there was hot loads and pistol loads during ww2, I find it fairly unlikely that it would make a 400rof differency
So just to be sure lets drop every ww2 era weapons rof to 200 which has firing video in utube ?
Dunno, that video seems quite real to me.
If you find another video where it shoots only 400rof I guess you have a point.

ai research is not real research
it has the same credibility as saying my houseplant said so

Well, seeing that their is not a lot of actual FNAB 43 verified tech manuals floating around the internet, and considering I have only found one source that said 400 was the ROF, and another saying 500 to 600 along with the House plant AI search, my guess is that 600 is still more accurate then 400. I don’t doubt that they had FNAB’s at 400 and and at 800, but the most common one should be used. So, if you can find an old FNAB gun manual, that would be the best. 
To be honest, DF is not going to do anything about it anyway as they don’t address 99% of the requests on the forum anyway. Most requests are DOA the moment the yellow post comment button is pushed.

Theres article about the video.
Lighter bolt than sten, shorter bolt travel and what else suggesting that 400 is by far too low.

So you are going to use glue on pizza and eat one rock a day that’s ai reliability.
From this video it has 837 RPM (would be 960 with upgrades) this would instantly put it in br 3 or 4, I hope you’re aware of that

Ah yes soooo historical and perfect accurate game, Uragan has 860 and PPS 43er has 800 on BR2.
Why you dont start with Rof by 0 Stars with 680 and let 3 stars then have 850? But on BR2?!

It’s a rather interesting topic this.
personally I would like the FNAB to stay at it is, since it offers a unique gun experience (low RoF but with a high capacity mag).
However, I did some research. There were some FNAB 43s around in the 70s.
Trivia: Two of them (besides one TZ-45 actually) were used in the kidnapping of Aldo Moro, for example:
Agguato di via Fani - Wikipedia
Kidnapping and murder of Aldo Moro - Wikipedia
FNAB was also fairly common in Italian action movies from the 70s.
In some movies, they do fire it with blanks, and the RoF seems to be much higher than 400 (actually fairly close to 800ish).
From Il Boss
In Cani Arrabbiati (Rabid Dogs) a FNAB 43 with removed barrel shroud is used.
I don’t know if one can draw any conclusions based on this whatsoever, but I find it a bit interesting anyhow.

Because that’s exactly what I said. 
That modern replicas of WW2 weapons are made only to be used as examples for pushing changes into enlisted.
Because there can be possibly no other reason why would anyone manufacture a replica with a higher rate of fire than the historical one.
I wonder if you just don’t understand the written word or are twisting it on purpose.
It should be increased to 550rpm at very least. But since we have too many smgs with same rpm it could be increased to 600rpm to be similar to PPS-42.
