DMRs and related confusion..

Postby ScaredShooter » Sun Aug 22, 2010 7:03 pm

Me for US forces!

Thanks! I am super stoked but I wish I had woodland BDUs since the rebels are so outnumbered.

I have one friend that might come w/ me and rent some Woodland camo to be on rebels..

sorry to have four posts in a row... i am stupid.

Haha are those supposed to be the rebels for the picture on page one? I would assume so, since they're all wearing woodland and sporting AKs.
However, look closely and you will notice that one of the soldiers has a sidearm holster that has "U.S." stamped on it.
Not my place to be critical, I suppose I would use an AK and whatever holster I could find if I was a rebel haha..

Regarding DMRs, there seems to be some confusion. Hey folks it's not that complicated. If you're shooting a regular AEG, you are limited to 400 fps in most events. If you are shooting a DMR (designated marksman rifle) that is only capable of semi-auto fire, you can have up to 475 FPS or whatever the limit for DMRs is.
Some people will take a gun such as the M14 and make a slight modification so that the safety can only be put on semi, therefore it is incapable of being used in full-auto. Then they upgrade their gun so that they can utilize the higher FPS limit.
I hope that makes sense, after all, I'm just a newb

So I just checked and it looks like TPS will have 10 to play for the US side, a few more guys decided to show up. We're looking forward to utilizing the new additions to the field! Should be a blast!

IN for US forces.
Shooting and Photography are alike, everyone will tell you how awesome they are. Few people are that good at either.
