The Schmeisser Mk36.III is a very old gold order weapon, but while it is unique, it is unfortunately the worst in general German BR1 SMG, somehow the MP 28 doing better in most every area; a noticeable 150 RPM faster, 0.8 second faster reload, and for some reason even recoil is better? (It’s an 11 pound gun the size of a Kar 98, how does that work?) . There are a few historically accurate upgrades I would like to request this gun could receive that would be very easy to do that would make it a more competitive and fun gun.
First off, I request to give this gun the standard SG42 bayonet used on many guns in game, since as this gun was based off of the Kar 98K rifle and retained the bayonet lug, it should be able to mount one. The image below clearly shows the mounting point on the model in game, and would be easy to make in game.
Another potential buff the gun could receive is getting a larger magazine. This gun uses the same magazines as the MP 28, and uses the normal 20 round magazines in game. This means though, that this gun is compatible with the 32 round magazines some MP28s used (Which we already have in game), and could be a nice upgrade to this gun. Here is a photo of the Schmeisser Mk.36 II, which was a near identical gun to the model III, with the MP 28’s 32 round magazine inserted, showing the compatibility of the magazine and gun.
And the last potential buff I can think of is to simply reduce the recoil a bit. It’s already fairly low, but again, it is slightly less controllable than the MP28 for some reason, despite firing slower and weighing 3 pounds more than it, so it would be logical that this would be the more controllable gun.
@Euthymia07-live , would it be possible for you to please pass one of these suggestions onto the devs?
