Stop bringing up unrelated stuff please, svt38 was used with magazines, was made to be reloaded with a magazine, enfields were used with stripper clips, so were garands and g41, that is why it’s an exception
Stop with the mental gymnastics
Your “entire” point here about “historically” is unrelated to what ive written.
There is no gymnastics here, you are just dying on a hill irrelevant to balance.

Your entire point is that a weapon should be used like it wasn’t for the sake of “balance” and it should be as handicapped as contemporary inferior weapons because… reasons.
Even though the game is designed to have asymmetric balance with weapons having distinct strenghts and weaknesses, no it shouldn’t be reloaded with clips just because other guns of it’s class do.
Stop with the non sequitur
That time is long gone…see TT protoypes and borrowed weapons to give equal opposites
Wrong. My point is if BR 3 are all stripper clips including weapons that could reload with a detach mag…then svt 38 gets same treat ment.
It “could” use strippers, so to be consistant with everyone else… it should…just like turner and enfield

No it shouldn’t, whataboutism doesn’t apply here sorry.
A gun with distinct comfortable detachable magazine that was used with magazines shouldn’t be reloaded with stripper clips just because guns without detachable magazines or smle/enfield were used with stripper clips because their magazine was just a box that wasn’t intended for quick reloads, it doesn’t logically follow.
It does if your talking balance.
It doesnt if you are stuck oh “muh history” (which doesnt exist in enlisted)
Like i said. You are on a different hill
…any idea how dumb this statement is?

Evidently you don’t know anything about balance because you just want to kill an otherwise mediocre gun because it pisses you off how it’s still better than garand or g41 in some areas just because it’s soviet

Admit it you just feel that it’s unfair, “how can ussr have something we don’t get, this is le bias and double standards”, endless forumsperg shitflinging about someone not getting what someone gets. You don’t really care about the balance
…says the guy that just admittedly said having to reload the gun with strippers would put it on the level of “everyone else” 
.
If its equally shit…its still balanced…derp

All I’m asking is “why” and all you say is that other weapons are like this
Don’t you see how it’s just not a valid argument? Let’s just give all weapons same reload speed, same damage, same stats sure whatever, you what, a communist?
I was all for history - but weapons and vehilces showed up in campaigns where they didnt (contents sake)
I was all for hardcore (weapon malfunctions, freindly fire) - but casual arcade is the favoured way, so it died
I was all for assymetry - then they started Adding TT prototypes and borrowed equipment to fill holes and remove assymetry
I was all for strictly before the end of WW 2 - Then we got Post war Jets, tanks, and combat style post 1945
I was all for Merge and BR to be Ahistorical but balanced - they still havent got the hang of this, largely thanks to politics and taking popular opinion (mains) over informed.
Have adapted many times to its changes in directions…I dont have to like it, nor is it what I would have chosen…
And honestly out of patience with it

Well tbf historically, there was a chronic shortage of SVT mags even pre Soviet Entry into WW2, let alone during WW2.
So it being being reloaded via stripper clips is actually pretty HA.
The best solution would be to give it 1 spare mag, and after that its stripper clip time, this mag being resupplied if they reload from an ammo crate. (However this would take programming effort worth like 5 minutes and therefore might be too much for the devs to do).

I suspected as much, but really didnt matter to my point so I didnt pursue. Thanks, wasnt interested to look into it myself

This is a very interesting idea and would fit into a hardcore mode like Tarkov (well AM exists anyway) where resources are valued and has manual reload.
That being said, it would feel like playing a fps version of mow/goh. I remember some enlisted alpha footages with extended inventory system, so it very much could happen if devs went a different route. Sadly, I don’t see how we can get a new system with any sort of depth.
Mental illness, there was a chronic shortage of everything for every faction besides maybe Americans. Doesn’t mean it’d be good if tigers couldn’t be repaired or you had to wait for 5 matches for your destroyed pz4 to be replaced
I mean another solution could be to keep the mag on the SVT-38 (if you insist) and send it to BR4… where every other 10+ round, mag reloaded semi auto are anyway.

Or send them to br3 where they belong instead of being massively inferior to fullauto spam?
As it is the SVT-38 doesn’t belong in BR3, it’s better than the damn SVT-40 right now. If it’s to keep it’s mag reload it moves to BR4, which doesn’t hurt the USSR much because both the Winchester M1895 and Fedorov 1912 are some of the best BR2 weapons in the game. If it’s to stay at BR3 it gets stripper clip reload, like literally every single other 10 round BR3 gun in the game.

Meanwhile devs giving universal to everyone (except axis ofc) to prevent asymmetry…
