M1 goodness in Vietnam

[mapes]

Vietnam BC2 has made me take another look at the M1. You know it's funny I tried the M1 in vanilla and thought meh... I've noticed my aim has gotten better because of the semi auto nature of the M1. Well with the Vietnam mod the M1 with magnum ammo really packs a punch. I like going as recon class using the M1 and 1911 side arm. I find I can deal with most anything. Troops in the open unload with rifle or pistol. Troops dug in.... Nades or arty. Tanks...TNT.

I prefer to think of myself as a forward observer instead of a sniper...... Although you can snipe mid range with the M1... The only draw back is the reload time so get used to drawing that sidearm. Anyone else have fun playing with the M1?

i dopnt know about the M1, but that little crap box of a 3 wheeled truck the vietcong have is a blast. it makes me want to go deliver some chickens or something@!

I too have discovered how great the M1 Garand is in Vietnam. I have not used it with recon though. I will give that a try the next time I play. Thanks for the idea Mapes.

You have to have veteran status to use the M1. Even though I own both BF2 and BF2142, I can't get vet status to register for me

What do I need to do in order to get an M1 !?!?

Same here. I have no M1 Garand. Do we need to unlock it in BC2 first?

If you can find your key code you can still get Veteran Status.
