9mm Pistols
Hi!
Can it be that the Pistols are way too accurate and make way too little damage? 9mm vs 5.56mm. 5.56mm may have a bigger penetration, but a 9mm has much more punch. So what's about reducing accuracy, reducing damage vs armored, increasing kick, increasing damage vs unarmored? |

Re: 9mm Pistols
Why has 9mm more punch? Energy in the 5.56 is alot bigger afaik,, but bigger damage vs unarmored would be nice.

Re: 9mm Pistols
Accordingly to the MAs, a pistol shot 9mm doesn't have enough punch to pierce a modern body armor.
.380 ACP ? Wikipedia 5,56 x 45 mm NATO ? Wikipedia The 9mm only has a length of "17 mm", while the 5.56 has "45 mm" 9mm: Speed: 300 m/s Energy: 260 J 5.56mm: Speed: 1000 m/s Energy: 1800J |

Re: 9mm Pistols
True. Plus the Beretta 92s muzzle velocity seems to be around 365m/s.
This would result in a "bit" higher energy, but nothing close to a 5.56mm fired from an assault rifle. |

Re: 9mm Pistols
Just wanted to show, that a comparison "9mm vs 5.56mm" is a bit pointless.

Re: 9mm Pistols
Peace, everyone understood eachother after all.
9mm should be weak. I found the MP5 to be quite powerful though, is there any difference in damage between 9mm fired from an MP5 and fired from a pistol (in game)? |
