Can anyone tell me if that is the intended way to reload it IRL? or is it just a gimmick from the game?
Waste of a perfectly good mag tbh. Most soldiers put the mags back on their vest when they reload so they can refill it later. Only time when you want to reload like that is in combat in pure desperation. Or if in your a position in which your not moving and can pick up the mags later.
Well that is obvious... but if you are taking fire you would not waste time by putting empty mags in your pocket would you?

What I mean't was, is that the reason the release mechanism on the clips work like that?

The only thing i don't like about the M16 is its weight... it feels too light almost. i'm used to toying around with SA80 series though, and thats markedly different so maybe that's were i'm coming from.

Ugly is subjective. I think the 'futuristic' weapons like the Steyr AUG and F2000 are hideous.

The M-16 is a reliable weapon. It had problems early in Vietnam but they were fixed in the past 50 years

It just needs to be cleaned after use. If it hasn't been used there's no reason to clean it.

oic... that I could live with...

I've considered going into range shooting with .45's here at home... I do think it is quite expensive to get the licence and gun... But I just find the .20 caliber "standard" range pistols boring

And I think it is illegal to bring such a gun home but I am unsure...

That's why American freaking rocks!

Back onto the M16: you only need to clean it after you've shot it. I've only had one M4 jam on me and I've shot dozens of AR-15s and XM177Es (old M4). The M4 jammed because the magazines were shit quality.

It's just too easy to shoot an M16A2 accurately, I mean it's a joke, point and click and it's hit. I was at 300 yards with a Marine friend of mine, and we were trying out different weapons on long range. I missed like once with the M4, adjusted the sights for bullet drop and I was hearing PIIIIING all day long.

Oh and we had an M1A too, that was pretty awesome, with a 10x scope.

Well if you are in a engagement with properly trained squadmates, they're expected to cover you while you are reloading so you can take a bit more time to reload.

and no, I don't think the release mechanism works like that. You should youtube "MW2 FAL reload IRL" to be sure, a lot of people like to make videos of themselves reloading real guns like in games, don't ask me why :3. Just make sure the video isn't of a Airsoft FAL.

same. Ammo+ is only for reconcampers who are camping so far from the action the assault guys don't give them ammo.

At the shooting range it is. That thing is darn accurate, try an AK or something. MP5s are also damn accurate.

So was going for bronze stars on my primary account today and only had the AUG left in ARs (due to my previous hideous experience with it). Granted it was in hardcore but I was absolutely raping people with the weapon today. The changes from the patch really helped it out. I was clearing out entire squads with a single clip

sorry to resurrect this thread, but I just wanted to express my excitement because now that I have platinum with the AUG, I never have to use it again.

Yeah I thought the same way for a while then realized in the long run you're actually better off sticking with the weapon you use the most effectively, mostly because you achieve more points with sheer pwnage rather than medals.

I doubt it, unless you would double your kill rate with your "pwnage" weapon, which is highly unlikely.

I feel the same way after I got mine. Giant POS that gun is.

How about firing in burst as opposed to full auto? Seem to do the trick for me.
