Hello
When comparing the BAR and the FG42 we find that both fired a similar full powered cartridge, had a 20 round magazine, a bipod, weights of 8.8 and 6.1 kg, practical ROF of 120 and 400 rpm, cyclic ROF of 500 and 600 rpm and ranges of 550 and 800 m respectively.

However in the game the weapon stats are
BAR acc 20, kill 5, range 12.
FG42 acc 1, kill 3, range 8.
The game values seem not to reflect the real performances of the weapons? especially as the BAR represents a single weapon and the FG42 slot represents several FG42s.
Best Regards Chuck.
