i rather have a 1911 any day than wasting lead with an smgbutteforce said:Thank god. At least two people said the M3A1. Stupid rifles. SMGs all the way.
Just say no to 1911s. People seem to think they're a lot better than they really are. Ergonomic nightmares with stupid grip safeties and they're a pain in the ass to take down. Great when they were invented, not very impressive 100 years later.
I'm with you, I used that almost as much as my sniper rifle in Sniper Elite.TheYellowCellPhone said:What, no lovers of the PPSh-41 yet?

Where did you get an M1 and how much do they run?darkman80723 said:Dead tie between Mosin-Nagant and the M1 Garand. I own both and both are excellent weapons.
you'd die really REALLY fast, an AK47 w/o optics can out-shoot an M1 garanddemoman_chaos said:I'd take an M1 into a modern battle.
wow, that is one of the most non-senseical things i've ever heard, they call it the AK47, because it started production in 1947.formless777 said:The AK47 saw service in 1945. The Russians used it on the Japanese in Manchuria. Russia won a lot.

Yes I would die quickly, but not because of the gun. An AK can fire faster, but it doesn't matter how fast you fire it matters how fast you get a round into your target. The AK is known for reliability and being very inaccurate. The M16/M4 is known for accuracy and its lack of knockdown power. The M1 is reliable, accurate, can fire and reload quickly, and will knock your target down each time. 1 well-aimed shot is far better than 10 poorly aimed.Delta 3 Actual said:you'd die really REALLY fast, an AK47 w/o optics can out-shoot an M1 garand
not at less than 300 yards,where the AK maintains it's accuracy, and outside of 300 yards is almost impossible to hit with an M1 because it can't have optics mounted to it. Also inside of 300 yards, the AK47's 7.62x39 has the same kinetic force as the M1's 30-ot-6 or even the M14's 7.62x51 NATO cartridge.demoman_chaos said:Yes I would die quickly, but not because of the gun.
