Summary
MG5 – Bundeswehr General Purpose Machine Gun
Description
The MG5 in 7.62x51 mm NATO for Arma Reforger, in a coyote finish with soft desert camo spots. It feeds from a 100-round belt pouch: the belt visibly jerks forward with every shot and gets shorter as you fire.
FEATURES
- MG5 in 7.62x51 mm NATO, 810 m/s muzzle velocity like the real 550 mm barrel
- Five 100-round belt pouches: DM111 ball with DM21 tracer (4:1), ball, tracer, AP, AP with tracer. The DM21 tracer burns out at about 770 m. The pouches also fit the vanilla M60.
- Animated belt and a feed cover hinged at the front like the real weapon
- 4x scope with a real magnified picture and its own 7.62 reticle: zeroed at 300 m, holdover marks from 400 to 1000 m, lead marks every 1 mrad
- Picatinny rails on top, bottom, bottom front, left and right for sights, lights, lasers and grips
- Vertical foregrip and horizontal assault grip; both reduce recoil
- Swappable flash hider: takes 7.62 suppressors from other mods
- Gas regulator with three rates of fire (640 / 720 / 800 rpm), set in the inspection mode (hold R) – experimental
- Shot sounds from real recordings
