They don't use them. 

 

Only the point man carries a shotgun and that has either buck shot or bird shot in it. For breaching doors either buck shot or a slug. Wouldn't use frags for breaching.

 

Magums again they don't use them. Hand guns they use 9mm versions of the  M1911 as the standard side arm. Wouldn't see a revolver in service let alone a magum Image0080.jpg

 

there left to right is a .357 magum (sticly speaking its a .38 special but its very similar to a .357 All  a magnum. is is taking a bullet casing then using a smaller butllet with higher pressure. the spcial is very similar and can be fired safley from a gun chambered for .357 magnum but if you fired a .357 magnum from a gun chambered for .38 speial you'd be in as much danger as the person you're aiming at as the gun is likey to simply exlpode in your hand due to the much higher pressure of the round. Can be used in the MP412)

 

a pound coin,

 

.45 APC (M1911/UMP.45)

 

and a 9mm Para bellum (M9, M93, MP443 Grach though not specifically intended to be but is virtially the same as a Russian 9mm so can be fired safely) The side arms the Army use are M1911s but instead of using .45 APCs they use Para Bellums

 

The army do use magum rounds but only in the modified versions of the L96 which use the .338 lapua magnum. Like most magums (.44 being the exception as it is developed form a .44 casing) its a bullet in a smaller casing this time a .338 bullet in a .416 casing but with much higher pressure than a normal .416

Re: shotguns :S

to understand the darkside you must experience it, ive unlocked frags for the MK3 and had a go with them, they are stupidly evil and overpowered, just my opinion, but you are not invincible even if you have it, ive seen muppets kill themselves and ive slotted a few frag whores with a PDW.

having used them and seeing how evil they are i chose the light side. running them over with a MAV bwahahaa

The most annoying thing about the MAV is the noise it makes

Re: shotguns :S

Mr Inconspicuous there is frag round that is designed to blow the locks out of doors and it's only for that job so, we are right about there being no frag rounds that are designed for killing as yet.

 

I mentioned the Magnum as just the Magnum as everybody knows it's Dirty Harry's gun and not the type of round as most players do not know about it!

 

The worrying thing is that in the Battlelog forum Wish List thread there are players asking for the Desert Eagle! They mean the .50 version which again is not used by the army!

 

I think there is to many players starting to make this game into a Call of Duty game!
