Model 18?

Heres what i do:

Model 18: start your crosshairs on the neck or chest area. let loose on the trigger, and get a feel in mid combat as to where your bullets are going.then, ajust accordingly

M14: The good old M14...where to start. First realize your using only a 20 round clip of 7.62mmx51mm bullets. Needless to say, you don't have much ammo, even with double ammo. You have to constantly scavenge for other M14 users, M60E3 users(rare nowadays) or M40A1 users (5 in the entire world...i might become the 6th ;)-). There are two ways i fire it: im used to using an M21 out at the range, so i like keeping my M14 in single shot, even in CQB (Close Quarters Battles). I have a fast trigger finger, so its easy for me, but others might have a problem. If you have it in auto, you can learn how to burst it. i have learned this art from a good friend of mine on socom. We've been owning for two years now, and its fun as hell. the method is firing untill your crosshairs just start to jump, then let off for an instant, then repeat. you can still fire it full autoish, but the recoil wont kick in at all. Or you can do what AL does....ride the wave. Learn to predict your path with your bullets, and you will come out on top

I have a question: Why does it matter the size of the bullet in the game? It doesn't make me go "ah .30 caliber bullets... that means it will take X number of shots..." or "ah .30 caliber bullets... that means I can multiply the velocity of the wind by this degree of my angle against his head in that split second that I have to kill him anyway..."

hahaha thank you! bullet size dont mean jack s h i t

Bullet size just has to do with finding ammo for guns.

ive never had a problem finding ammo. anyways if you got none or lil left pick up gun from the 1st dead body u see. unless its a IW of course :P

[otakucon87]

i was illistrating that ammo is hard to come by sometimes. If your an M14 user in a room where everyone is using M16s, your going to have trouble finding ammo. thats all i was saying

[Wand3rer]

Yes, I know what kind of ammo to look for based on the ammo size even though the ammo boxes all look alike and they're small as hell and usually meshed into the corpse anyway.

TIP: Stop being trigger happy. Just because the enemy is on your screen and you spam the R1/X button doesn' tmean he's going to die.
