Why?

I will be honest, I don’t think it will affect the gameplay in anyway shape or form, but at least it will give more flare of their historical usages.

Assaulters: already have way better weapons that these two anyway, so this change won’t affect them in balancing.

Tankers & pilots: historical, and really wouldn’t affect the balance as much. SMGs are still better a choice for them.

Medics: make more sense than SMGs tbh…

Guerillas & Saboteurs: would giving them seimi-auto carbine OP? Dunno German ones can already use VG 1-5.

So basically probably won’t affect the balance that much (if at all), and it’s a free immersion point without the need to create any new assets.

M1 carbine, sure

M2 carbine, no. You don’t need to be giving every single class what is essentially an assault rifle

The M1 Carbine is totally understandable. However the M2 Carbine is far stronger than any other weapon, like the VG 1-5, S&W Light Rifle or Beretta M1918/30, and as such can’t be placed in the same category.
