Pelican Pal Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Anyone have information on squad-level machine guns tracer loadouts? My assumption is that at the squad level an MG42 or DP28 would have not have tracer rounds within their ammo loads or if they did relatively few. While tracer rounds would primarily be used with MMGs. Anyone have info on that? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bufo Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 On a notice, MG42 is a MMG. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Agreed. However, when MG42 is on a mount it is called an HMG for some reason. Wonder if the HMG "version" would include tracers? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pelican Pal Posted March 21, 2021 Author Share Posted March 21, 2021 Ah, it appears I am a step off then. I thought the bipod MG42 was light and the mount the medium. But it would actually be: bipod -> MMG mount -> HMG 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pelican Pal Posted March 26, 2021 Author Share Posted March 26, 2021 Thanks! Would anyone have some information regarding how tracers would be loaded for light and heavy MGs? In particular how those loads may differ. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
