I have only one weapon request for the powers that be: USSOCOM MK 23

[Winter Fritz]

Would bring tears of joy to mein eyes.

I want a Vector, P90, AUG, Honey Badger, Shockwave 12ga, Saiga 12, HK16, UMP45, STG44/MP40, Different AK variants (101, 102, 103, AKMS, AKMSN, etc), Desert Eagle, SVDS, RSASS, and most Importantly.... The Kolibri ;)

Seriously though if even half of these guns are added then that would make me nut just hearing the name Sandstorm

(Please NWI.... the gunplay is so good, we just need more guns!)

Funny, I've been thinking about the US SOCOM too. I hope it makes it in one day.

That, and the UMP45. This game really needs some hard hitting SMGs.

HK MK23 whould be awesome. My favorite pistol of all time!

[Metal Head]

5.56 NATO:

-FN FNC
-Steyr AUG
-FAMAS

7.62x39:

-RPD LMG
-RPK LMG
-AK 12

5.45x39:

-RPK74
-Beryl M545

All of them are adopted by middle eastern countries (army or police) and saw action in various conflicts in the area. So IMO they will fit the setting perfectly.

just need mods, then anyone can add that ♥♥♥♥.

Insurgency Sandstorm takes weapons that are used nowadays conflicts

so no P90 or Spas.

But the Mk23 has a long ass history and is still in use by many special forces around the world
(mostly americans) and many US Weapons are in the game due to Nato and older conflicts that they had.
to make it short:

It would be theoretically possible to be featured
(and yes, it would bring me also tears)

Desert eagle is basically a video game and hollywood weapon, I dont even think its ever been used in combat in real life, because its giant clunky pile of crap

Quote: "Uses for Desert Eagle
Magazine capacity is 9 rounds in .357 Magnum, 8 rounds in .44 Magnum, and 7 rounds in .50 Action Express. The Desert Eagle's barrel features polygonal rifling. The pistol is primarily used for hunting, target shooting, and silhouette shooting."

1. Why not just call it Mk 23 ?

2. Why an other semi automatic pistol instead of a revolver ?

3. What a useless request, we have the P228 for accurate shots. MK23 would just be an other pistol, just some pistol.

Considering the Desert Eagle is used by the Polish GROM and an other Portuguese Special Force unit, you are plain and simply wrong.

I also want to point out that the Desert Eagle has more than one version and even comes with 45 ACP, its a smaller pistol as well.


Best thing is to not comment at all if you havent got a clue mate.

its a pistol designed for a purpose and not just for fun, no gun is designed or mass produced for fun.

The MK23 isn´t just another pistol, it is THE PISTOL of all pistols. This beast is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ tank.

It is insane how reliable this pistol is.

That is true, there is also a light weight version with aluminium frame and scaled down a bit in size and it shoots .357 MAG. Desert Eagle L5 it is called.

This thing is mainly designed and produced for fun. This thing isn´t practical at all.

Let me know what you think.

First off I find the american flag just too laughable on this video, this pistol is made by H&K which is a German producer known for its quality guns. Not trying to be a ♥♥♥♥, but someone who is really in to H&K weapons would never ever use some Americanized terminology for it either.

I dont even doubt that this pistol is reliable, it indeed is, but this reliability factors simply disappears in a video game, which does not give devs any reason to add it. At least not as a priority, there are tons of different pistols that really do add something NEW to the game other than just an other semi auto.

Besides that, it might be reliable and all that, but having shot that thing, I would choose a Sig P210 above it any day, but this is just my personal opinion.

About the sporting rifle, it was not just made for fun, these kind of rifles are used for hunting rabbits and small game, just because someone calls it a sporting rifle and it is used for fun as a sporting rifle, doesnt mean this is its sole purpose. First in line it is a weapon capable of killing, the sport only came afterwards.
