Count me in as well. I was always irked by the sights of the SKS we have now. The front post is way too fat and looks to be split down the middle. A new, proportioned SKS with proper sights will be a nice change of pace. I might actually use scout/L-AT now on mestia/fools.

Not sure if the LAT is keeping the SKS -- all the other kits get the standard assault rifle. It only got that because it was originally a pick up kit.

The older sight wasn't even an SKS sight, it was the default AK101 sight from nilla-_-

the bfk sks sight looks much better and realistic

the current front sight post is so big that it's easier to score hits with the ak47 or even ppsh

Not to mention it just looks retarded and nowhere near anything SKS related..

My first reaction when I picked up the SKS in PR was "people USE this thing?!"

I'm glad we're seeing a viable replacement. If only we had a good FN FAL to replace the SKS altogether, I would be completely happy.

Yeah I could Vouch for an FN as well, that would be pretty sweet.

Eh, I think SKS is more common thatn FAL, though I'd love to see a fal in some faction

gclark03 · 2008-02-23, 18:57

The AK-101 is less common than anything, and Militia officers use it...

When we get a BF2-worthy FAL geometry, I'd like to replace the AK-101 and the SKS with the FN FAL, and maybe give the Insurgent Marksman pick-up kit a scoped SKS.

Heres my idea, AKM is given to the cell leader, the militia officer gets an MP5( I've heard taht turkey manufactures MP5s under contract, and I bet in taht country it isn't difficult to steal some pallets of weapons) that or an AKSU of some sort
The FAL should be put into a weapons cache, if it is a common weapon in insurgent arsenals.
Honestly I think the militia should get AKM's and AK74s, as it is, it's too similar to the insurgent faction
