Move the FNAB-43 to BR1

Sorry but i have no idea where to find it again. I saw it not too long ago, maybe 2-3 weeks back on a different post about the fnab. Euthy closed the post and responded it’s already been confirmed for a rof change instead of changing it’s BR

That is indeed the Orita 1941 not the FNAB

Is also possible I remembered wrong too lol

In an older video, they got a 720 rate of fire for the PPS 43.

Then Type 100 (late) would require also a buff to 7.2 again. And maybe but in on BR IV then? :thinking:
And maybe buff the damage of the Tokyo Arsenal from 6.7 to 7.2 and put it on BR V? :thinking: At least they would have a better SMG then the useless piece of trash aka “M2 carbine sawoff”

The weapon is reliable, accurate, and simple to operate. Its rate of fire is reduced compared to the PPSh-41: announced at 1000 rounds per minute for Shpagin’s weapon, and at 600 for Sudaev’s. Our personal measurements on a shooting session are however different: 1081 rpm for the PPSh-41 and 804 rpm for the PPS-43… beware of the announced data!

And on this video they have a claim for 720 rounds per minute in the description.

NGL, wonders of modern technology make measuring fire rate much faster and much more accurate.

As for the significant 100 rpm difference, either one PPS’s spring got a little loose or there are inherit differences in production which is possible in a long production run.

I guess ultimately, the 700 rpm is the most realistic.

This is correct - however why is nobody seeing an issue with this? Shouldn’t Soviet SMGs deal 4.5 by that balance logic? Like… you know that PPS also only 3 hit kills up to 10 meters aswell?

Y’all are looking at the gun wrong it is the king of mid to long range squad wiping at tier 2 its a straight lazer beam with a needle point iron sight at close range you can prefire hot contested corners and not get punished with a empty clip but yes good players with Russian ppsh box, pps series or American Thompson will out gun only in close range if y’all both start shooting at the same time but get better I have dropped plenty of 200+ kill games with triple assaulter fnab squads

This weapon is completely balanced with the exception of the fire rate, which is not at its historical fire rate. It’s missing 100 to half of the historical fire rate. With many sources placing it somewhere around 600. If they would just up the fire rate they wouldn’t have to downtier, And it’s an issue that would please the historical accuracy fanatics so that’s two birds one stone. If I were to make any measures further it would be some slight vertical recoil reduction, but I think it would be better just upping the fire rate to see how it performs since it is already a laser beam it’s as pinpoint accurate as any of the Japanese bolt rifles for its effective range, And even if you’re willing to miss a bullet or two you can still go beyond the effective range in full auto/burst.
