Yup, but you still have Rico and the other trader in Cali-Cantinos that sells most of the stuff those traders sell. And you'll also have access to Jim-Bob for the truly awesome and rare weapons, he's my go to guy:)

I usually get 2 sniper rifles when fighting bandits, and sometimes they drop a box with 20 rounds as well. But in those early stages I mostly use SMG's and shotties. The snipers in random encounters have a tendency to wander the map, and I usually stumble upon and killing them first. Since my guys draws a lot faster then them they rarely get the chance to waste a shot at me.

Nice one! Again! As always!

What's new in 1.8 from 1.7? I still have a game running, I think. I don't think I can be bothered restarting unless there's something really cool in this release that warrants it all ;)

I dunno if this warrants a new game, it's up to you:)

Well.. Looks like I'm going to start a new one.

Interesting caliber for that kar98k?

That weapon actually fires the 7.92x57 Mauser rounds, and it's a typo in my post. The only weapon of these new ones that doesn't use the "correct" ammo is the CheyTac, but that'll be fixed in the next version of the mod. I'm waiting for a new model for the ammo box and Geroj will get started on that when he gets back from his field trip.

Speaking of the next version, cyr_v just sent me 3 new models for the Krebs custom AK's, and those will be available too, but in a limited number only:)

Please tell me that the Enhanced Speed Load Tactical and KTR-09 will be among them!

Also, have you thought about adding an HK51? I've always liked the thought of spitting a 7.62mm NATO from an MP5-sized gun...

Hey R@S I've been using your mod for a while, and just registered to say thanks for the hard work and you've extended the life of this game by about 5 times and counting (not to mention making me reinstall it every time you release a new version).

Doublepost, can be deleted

Actually the Sigs use .357 SIG making them use the wrong caliber either.

So long

@tristeau
I'm not sure what these new Krebs weapons are, I think they're custom made:)
I haven't had much time to check them out, but they are chambered for the 5.56 rounds. But I'm thinking of also adding them in the 7.62x39 caliber since that's what the linky I posted suggested they use.

I've never heard of the HK51, but I'll pass on your request to Geroj and we'll see what he can do.

@brain
The SIG P220 comes in 3 calibers. 9mm, .38 super and .45 ACP. It uses the .45 ACP rounds in the mod.

The SIG P226 comes in 4, the 9mm, .40 S&W, .357 SIG and .22 Long Rifle. It uses the .40 S&W in the mod.

The SIG P228 only comes in 9mm, and it uses the .40 S&W in the mod. The P229 comes in .40 S&W and .357 SIG so I guess I should rename it to P229 to make the gnards happy;)
