I'm in the process of creating a Realism mod for Spearhead, which will (as far as can be allowed by the game physics) accurately depict the "real life" rates of fire. Adjusted so far are the Thompson (700r/pm), Mp40 (500r/pm), Sten MkII (450 r/pm), BAR (500r/pm), Stg44 (600r/pm), MG42 (1200 r/pm)- both static and portable, and PPSh-41 (900r/pm)- this now has a 71 round drum mag. These do actually fire at there correct rates.
But I am in need of some information. I have the rof for the K98k and G43 (15 and 30 r/pm respectively), but I'm lacking sources for the M1 Garand, Springfield M1903 A1, Lee-Enfield MkIII No.4, Mosin Nagant 1930, Tokarev STV40, as well as the pistols.
The other thing I'm trying to achieve is accurate ammo loadouts. I know the US rifleman had a 10 pouch belt which would give him 80 rounds for the M1 and 50 rounds for the Springfield. And I know the German infantryman carried 8 ammo pouches, which would give the MP40 256 rounds and the Stg44 240 rounds. But again I'm lacking sources for the others.
I have exhausted my own library, spent hours in the local public library to no avail, and for once the net has failed me. So any information recieved would be a great help.
Any information given can either be posted here, or e-mailed to me at

Thank you in advance for any assistance received.
