  1. If you buy the G28 version from Jaeger and sell the Muzzle, the Scope and pistol grip etc. to mechanic to replace them with the "Meta" parts (PRS Suppressor, Gral-S, SE-5) you are just missing out on scope/optic for the same price you bought the base gun. So to get a "Meta" G28 its roughly 300K without any optic. That is totally in line with the prices of your builds in this video, IF you have max traders of course.

  2. Did they just raise the price of the KAC QDC? I swear it was $480ish from peacekeeper last night…
    Edit:just noticed you only had it listed at $580 for the m1a

    Great video as always, 7.62×51 is def my favorite caliber this wipe for sure especially once you get m62 unlocked

  3. In the words of Levicitus, the guy that does the "Evolution of …" series, the SR-25 is the jack-of-all-trades, master of none rifle xD

    Been my favorite for over 1 year, even last wipe when it was honestly kinda trash

  4. What I love in particular about the 7.62×51 guns this wipe is the sheer amount of alternative builds you can do. Running them loud with the BMD combo, RK-1 or 2, and PRS GEN3 stock can give you better ergo and recoil for cheaper, at the expense of blowing everyone's ears off. Even for suppressed, changing the RSASS handguard for the Noverske SWS ones and putting a CQR on gives nearly identical stats for a very pretty looking weapon (for the SR-25 specifically, and the mutant if you're into that). The barrel length making a huge difference for ergo too gives you an interesting decision as to whether you want a shorter barrel for quick scoping, or longer for better point fire.

    This is how weapon modding for other guns should be too IMO, but it feels like there's just "one good build" for all the other rifles in the game

  5. there is NO way rfb is the best budget waepon of this caliber, you can buy a sr-25 for the same price on the flea with better stats and WAY more modding possibilities if you want.
    edit: if you mod a rfb you get worst stats then a stock sr-25. the thing good about the rfb is that you can use it early on in the wipe besides that 0 upsides

  6. Hey J Dog, I was wondering if you did anything to make using scopes with NVGs crisper. The rsass with the vudu looked so clean in the intro! It's usually too dark for me to see anything through a scope at night, cheers if you see this.

  7. One tip for SA-58: Don't buy the long barrel directly from flea/mechanic. Instead buy a low durability sa-58 from flea for like 25-30k, take out the 21'' barrel and sell the gun back to traders. It's much cheaper this way.

  8. These are great builds, I hope to try these out when I get trader levels up there.

    One thing to note, I'm surprised that when you went to Day Customs/Reserve you could find the time to scope into boss guards enough to place good shots on them.

    Gluhar's crew is the worst by far, have spawned at Dome and 30 secs later and not even scoping in that direction, I immediately start getting beamed by tracer rounds from Knight buildings.

  9. I found one of the new HKs in marked and made a few small changes to it before loading into light house. I insured it for like 100k cuz I figured rogues might kill me and I would get it back. Spawned 30 seconds late up on the hill by the land mines and didn’t even get to take a step before getting shot in the head 🙁
