Sublime Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 (edited) I always see them with carbines.. Speaking of that carbine in game. Is that the same one you see US troops in Korea using except with banana clips in old footage? Nvm. Turns out thats the M2 carbine that adds a 30 rnd clip and select fire ability including automatic. The m3 variant had an IR scope. So we.re seeing the m1 in game however by end of war some M2s should be floating around for our Riesberg redone scenarios etc. Speaking of old scenarios anyone excited to see Yelnia Stare redone wit 1:1 soldiers? Though its probably years away? Edited May 1, 2016 by Sublime 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony P. Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 AFAIK M2s were exceedingly rare in the ETO. There were definitely more of them (and M3s) in the PTO, as more carbines were issued to frontline infantry there and the war dragged on longer there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
