I had this thought during breakfast this mourning, what if we had different ammos for submachine guns and rifles-machine guns. This would add to realism as the guy with a tommy could not turn to a fella with an m1 for ammo. This could be done by saying black BB for rifle caliber weapons like brens bars efeilds ect ect, and white ammo for sten guns, tommys mp40s and the like. I think it would keep things in balance more and add to the experience. Thoughts?

How about weight instead to make an actual use of limiting range for certain weapons. Snipers use .30 riflemen use .25 SMG's use .12 (would really limit effective range) or .20

i think rifles should use .20 because .20s are very common and it would encourage people to use rifles more than SMG's

or rifles and snipers get .30 (greatly promotes rifles and kinda depromotes snipers), and smgers get .12 that would limit the smg and make it super realistic. you wouldnt have to worry about high caps because hey couldnt hit the broad side of a barn, well at medium-long range, but at close range(what they were designed for) they would be normal.

.12 gram will jam in most AEGs. (Poor quality and definitely NOT recommended)
If you want to limit range on certain weapons just regulate the FPS and in the case of SMGs don't allow hop up. Keep in mind however that the difference in total range between a substantially upgraded AEG and a stock Marui shooting at 290 FPS is marginal. (15 feet) Eliminating the hop up for SMGs is probably the best bet. Without hop up range is effected significantly.
For authenticity limiting most players to semi auto fire and real cap or low cap magazines is the most effective way to change the game to create a more novel and realistic event.

This is a very good idea. I think that we should also focus on promoting bolt actions. These are some great idea for an event we got here. Wait there is a problem, Don't we WANT to encourge Smg'ers with Russians. After all, Some Russian platoons were only equipped with PPSH's. I also think that the MP40 should get some slack to because after all we are talking vertical grip, 9 millimeter, and pistol-grip...the gun for what it was, was pretty accurate. Well, Kay I guess to make things realistic it would be okay but for real you have to give some slack to the ppsh at least. However, you are right about the rifle part though because when it comes to the Western front we need more M1's and Kars than Thompson's and MP's.

bolt actions, i assume, would go under the 'rifles' category.

Unfortunately the most affordable and available WW2 era weapons are SMGs and so they do tend to become unrealistically represented on the airsoft fields. If you eliminate hop up for guys using them in full auto and limit a large percentage of them to semi (with hop up) it will tend even out pretty reasonably. Especially with low cap magazines.

You can promote rifles all you want,but if nobody's producing them,its all irrelevant .
