i tried searching G3 but the search engine doesnt identify it as a full word or something. Can anyone tell me whats so good about it? or bad. It looks like it has the same dmg as the pkm but other then having a 20 round clip, i know nothing about it. can anyone tell me the pros and cons about it? im considering unlocking it and the P90
One of the most accurate guns in the game + a high amount of damage = pretty fucking deadly in the right hands.
It's more acurate... really useful that you can fire it while standing up. Fires faster then the PKM so, I think the G3 does more damage per second.
the only Bad thing about it is the clip... I can usually only kill 2 people per clip.

its a Heckler and Koch G3, standard issue for the German and Greek Military.
it makes a nice sound :>

Usque Ad Finem
PKM does 45 damage , G3A3 does 40 damage
PKM rpm 450 , G3A3 rpm 600
Accuracy is more or less the same as for all the other assault kit weapons (check Dev Zoom for comparison)

It does more damage per shot than the other assault rifles, but its reputation for accuracy is misleading. It has the highest Min. Deviation of all the assault rifles and highest possible Deviation per Shot as well (just a little worse than the AK-47). It has the lowest recoil when zoomed mod, but has higher multi-shot penalties than any other assault rifle.
This makes the G3 the least accurate assault rifle, even when firing single shots from the prone position. In rapid-fire/auto-fire from the prone position, it becomes more accurate than the AK-47, but only after three or more shots have been fired.

One other advantage the G3 may have over the other assault rifles is reduced “bullet drop” at longer ranges.

H&K G3A3 + 7.62mm bullets + single shot mode + M1 Garand firing style = ownage
@iNeedUrFace4Soup , Wiki is wrong on most stuff it has on weapons. Simple example is that that all assault weapons have the same bullet velocity, so the claim that the G3A3 has less bullet drop over longer distances is complete nonsense.
the g3 is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more acurate than the pkm

Accurate, does a lot of damage and fast. I can usually get 2-3 kills in a clip, but you have to be careful about not wasting ammo.
*cough*magazine*cough* and i like th G3 lots of power, accuracy, and i get my lovely grenades to throw at people

3 shots to take down someone down. 1 if you nail them in the head.
Ive used it before and I went like 57-11/....its an insane gun. I practically defended tv stattion on sharqi with it...alone

The G3 is a great gun for running into someone headon, firing on reflex, and getting the kill even if they had the DAO-12. It's also great for sniping because it isn't hell accurate (it's a fiesty bitch) but it is reliable. You give it love it gives you love. I stopped using GL's long before they were ever nerfed because the G3 simply performs better than any AR + GL combo

that's covered by using it in single shot mode, I think.FFLink13 wrote:

I wouldn't go that far, but it is in serious need of an overhaul to check for mistakes and inconsistencies.Jemme101 wrote:

The G3 is no longer Standard Issue for the German Military. It has been replaced by the G36.d3v1ldr1v3r13 wrote:

Best rifle for Assault Class. It comes with grenades, which are often more useful than a nade launcher. Since the F2000 sucks, it is a godsend for the US compared to the M16A2. Well, if you dont like burst fire weapons like myself that is.
It rocks on full auto, but single doesnt seem to work too well, or at least for me anyway
Just be sure to conserve your ammo and/or keep near the support guys, since 20rounds per clip is its only drawback, but the high power more than makes up for it. A bit of practise, and 2-4 people per clip is not hard.
High power, awesome sound and the reload is also superb

The G3A3 reminds me of my first weapon when I was in the service, the FN FAL , gotta wub the FAL
