my scout platoon used 50 cals for their snipers http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/smile.gif all u have to do is shoot there kevlat helmets or the chin strap or there lbv and when its all said n done who knows anyway besides a 50 cal machine gun cannot be used against people a 50 sniper rifle can and a m40 which uses the 7.76 rd can take a head off 500 meters away

i'm sure the army would disagree. i dont think they use those M2s for paintball. but if you just happen to be shooting in that general area and enemy troops happen to walk there "accidents" do happen.

I've shot the .50 cal Dessert Eagle Hand gun. I believe that would take a head off. With the muzzle flash alone, I think it could be clasified as a flame thrower http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/wink.gif

dude people can lose there heads from a sniper shot granted not from any of these sniper rifles but from todays sniper rifles they can so it wouldnt be too aracadish and tell me what is so real about this game besides the shoddy german language used..not much at all yea its nice to look at and it carry a very strong theme but its nothing but for fun and not for use of any historical refrence dont take me wrong i love this game but its nothing but action and if u get off easy thinking its realistic in any way besides how the town looks and weapons look and the language then u should be happy with a 1 cent whore on payday this game is about as real as sof or anything else that gives u realistic weapons with no real drawbacks from carrying loads of weapons and no actual real feeling to weapons (recoil,weight,barrel changes for the auto) if this is realistic then quake 3 or half life is real comeon get a grip on "reality"

lol, what gun are you talking about? even a .357 or .44 mag can't blow someones head off unless from almost point blank. lol, what rifle are you talking about that can make someones head explode from 100 yeards away? A missle launcher?

what sniper rifle are you talking about? a mortar launcher?

a 50 cal sniper rifle will make ur head n neck n half ur chest go boom
