You can do a lot of stuff alone , you're a good modder.
Try creating a good M1 skin... Realistic this time , maybe Winters's one ? or someone else from BoB which has a used Garand..
hmm , maybe from Ep 8 , when they are in Hagenau , you can see that the M1's are diffrent in color , they look black like . War torn M1's , that's nice..
If you can make those , it'll be cool , let me know if you need a picture..
