I have been doing a lot of Germany BRII and I need some advice for Radio, Mortar and Engineer primary weapon.
I have been using the Armaguerra for these class of soldiers. It seems to be the best for BRII. What do the experienced players use?

Either the Kar98k, or the VZ.24.
For BR2 my favourite rifles are:
Mannlicher 1895, Armaguerra, Pavesi rifles (both models are BP) and finally, I may sometimes swap these out for Germans with Pre-war K98K for extra HA, at the price of effectiveness.
But boss, those are BR1. What about BR2 rifles?
armaguerra is shit. you usually need 2 bullets to down player with vitality and you only have 6 rounds, so it is effective against 3 soldiers before reload. that is why i use BA rifle which give 5+ shots with kill potential.
so i would use kar98k, manlicher 1895, gewehr 98 wartime mod(if you have it) etc.
basically use gun with sights that are comfortable to you and then out of those select gun with best rate of fire.
If I don’t use the Scotti Mod, I use the Pavesi, and sometimes use the Armaguerra as the back up. I am not a huge fan of the Gewehr 98 Wartime mod, but since I don’t use the radioman backup much, It was sufficient…and free. ![]()
This is how my current BR2 Radiomen are configured

manlicher m1895 is knocking on your door,
yup. nothing else comes close.
I don’t tend to use them. I play mostly SMG in BRII. ![]()
Veterans used the Mannlicher 1895, while new recruits used the Carcano M38; the former had a faster rate of fire, while the latter was easier to reload.
The Vz.24 has good penetration, but the Mannlicher 1895 is superior in rapid fire. Both are suitable for veterans. Newcomers are advised to use the Carcano M38, as its 5-round magazine makes reloading more convenient.
All my br1 germans have vz24s, and all my br1 Italians have mod38s. I’m not sure if they’re technically best on spec, but i definitely have the most success with them. Sights make such a huge difference on bolts.
Br2 germany is mostly Man Lickers, as and when i can afford to add them to the lineup. Most guys have them at this point, but i keep a few armas on specific guys (i know the opinion on this rifle is less than amazing) for mid-range. It works for me.
Me too, with every faction.
BR3 Allies I play almost exclusively BAR’s.
