vote on k43/garand balance
the k43 and garand arent balanced at the moment:
k43 - 10 rounds per clip, can reload mid-clip
garand - 8 rounds per clip, cannot reload mid-clip
this is bad for competition play.

If alexjones8194 had a penis it would be called "useless." Reason being is all it would be good for is him stepping on it.

Of the options given, my vote is 10 rds/clip with reload. 8 rds/clip with reload would be my second choice. The no-reload thing is the biggest disadvantage against SMGs, IMO.
That said, another option would be to give the garand some other advantage. Some possibilities:
- greater accuracy
- more damage
- extra clip
- faster reload
If you still wanted it to be exactly equal, you could give either team the option of the k43 or garand. Without rebalancing the garand, this would be pointless, because no one would ever use it
TBH, I'm not sure they need to be balanced for competition. Yes, it gives the axis and advantage, but on asymetric maps, that doesn't really matter. It is still fair in stopwatch mode, and in other modes, map balance will far outweigh the differences between k43 and garand. I know most of the competition groups are very reluctant to change gameplay, probably due to the arguments it will create...

cov opps on the allied side are definitely at a disadvantage. however ill still take your head off with a garand or a k43. just give the garand more ammo to start off with in reserve.
or just make all of these server settings and let the admin decide.
