They should downtier the Browning M1919A4 to Br 3 so that the US get another tech tree option, the germans get 2, the KE7 and the MG 34, the japanese get two 30 round mgs and the KE7 aswell, but the US only gets 1, the BAR, it isnt a bad weapon but it lacks ammo capacity, trying to clear a bunker, or defend its entrance with only 20 rounds is very difficult, the only other options they get is the Lewis gun but that is only an event weapon, and you had to pay to get more than 2, the germans however got the Lahti-Saloranta M/26-32 with a 75 round mag and a fire rate of 500; now the Browning M1919A4 has a 100 round belt and a fire rate of 550 at 3 stars, but you have to mount it or go prone to use, while you dont have to do that with the Lahti, now the Browning M1919A4 doesnt even get used at the Br where it sits at right now (Br 4) since you can just use the M1919A6 where you can use it without any restrictions, if we down tier the Browning M1919A4 not only would it give the US a more reliable defensive MG but it would also give it a purpose, now i think that it would still be balanced enough since the MG 34 still gets 50 rounds with a way higher fire rate and the type 96 and 99 LMGs also get a better fire rate, now maybe we could down the M1919A4 belt to 75 instead of 100 since the Lahti is only a Battle pass weapon, but i still think that the prone and mount only restriction is enough. On another topic we should also downtier the first variant of the BAR to Br 2 that would make it comparable to the ZB-26 or the Type 97 LMG.
No poll.
- Yes, moved to BR III as is
- No, its fine as it is
- Yes, but ammo capacity
- Yes, but… (your own idea)
yes, but with reduced ammo capacity*
I was against moving the M1919A4 to BR III before, but since Lathi-Saloranta M/26-32 was added, I changed my mind on the matter.
They should just remove the prone / mount only requirement.
Can people stop making this post already the number keep raising on posts abouth the M1919A4
I believe they are planning to allow it to be fired from the hip (not ADS) if I remember well.
Yeah I already said It on like 3 of this things euthy confirmed that It will get hipfire but It didn’t made It on this update but nah lets day 20 times downtier this gun to BR3 there is even a guy that said to downtier It to BR2
Maybe a list of forwarded requests / issues stickied to the top of the forum would help with this. Might help prevent duplicate threads or necro posting.
Allow it to hipfire and reduce belt to 75 and boom balanced and cool gimmick.
I think the lahti should be stronger due to it being a bp weapon but yeah. that’s my thought.
They could then put the A6 at br4 and add a 100 round stinger for br5. Thoughts??
Yes, reduce mobility to 50 -55, add hipfire capability, move it down to BR III, 100 rounds are fine considering the Lathi-saloranta M26-32 has 75 rounds and has 75% mobility.
Also, move M1919A6 down to BR IV and fix the Lewis HG to match its real counterpart, then uptier it to BR V

It still has active discussion so no point in a new topic
