Captured Weapons Modification (US/SU Weapons)

Welcome to my second guide to H&G! I would like to talk about captured weapons; giving some tips on how to turn your new weapons into true killing machines. Each weapon has pictures and a description on how to best modify it. If you have questions, you can post a comment or you can add me on Steam. Have fun reading and trying out the modifications!

Note: This guide will be updated with each update to the game in order to avoid future readers being given misinformation. I wanted to share my weapon modification and get rid of some tips. If you main either the Soviets or Americans and have a better way to modify the weapons, please let me know!

Here is my guide about German weapons and my classes. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=936876756

6.35 Ball


Chrome Lined Barrel


Light Pistol Spring


The second best Pocket Pistol. With a high accuracy and rate of fire, it is superior to the Model 1934, but not quite to the extent of the M1903.

I personally mod the Korovin TK with RoF mods.

Is it worth it to buy as a captured weapon? I would only recommend it if you are specifically looking for a captured Pocket Pistol, as it is overpriced.

Hair Trigger


.32 ACP Ball


Chrome Lined Barrel


Light Pistol Spring


A really solid handgun. Performing better than both the Model 1934 and the Korovin TK, the M1903 dominates the Pocket Pistol class.

I personally mod it with RoF mods.

Is it worth it to buy as a captured weapon? Well same thing like the Korovin TK. What can I say... I find the prices of Pocket Pistols just too expensive and would advise against any purchases.

Another side arm of a soviet commissar. The M1895 Nagant is an accurate revolver. Another thing is it has one more round than the M1917

Nagant M1895 build is for RoF and accuracy.

The M1903 is the best sounding bolt action rifle.The only complaint I have is in regards to the iron sights, but it is a solid bolt action rifle. When you mod it right, it is one shot kill.

I mod the M1903 for DMG and as an infantry sniping rifle.

M1941 Johnson is the american FG42. Foremost, I sadly think that many don't know how to play with this weapon... This weapon is a masterpiece. DMG builds for this weapon ruin it. It is really equal to the FG42, the only difference between the M1941 Johnson and FG42, is that FG42 has a scope option.

I mod the M1941 on RoF, but you can put other mods, which make the Johnson kinda like a laser.

Is it worth buying as a captured weapon? Yes but the only issue is the price.

Chad = PTRD-1941 Virgin = Panzerbüchse 39 I really enjoy playing with the PTRD-1941 to shoot down airplanes with it. But the cone fire really defeats all AT rifles..

I mod the PTRD-1941 for damage.

Is it worth buying as a captured weapon?I would say yes. Especially when you're a German or US Main and need a good AT rifle.

The PTRS-1941 is a semi automatic PTRD-1941 It is the biggest and most bad ass looking AT Rifle in this game. When it came out it was kinda broken, but as a result it got nerfed.

I mod the PTRS-1941 for accuracy.

Is it worth buying as a captured weapon? Well it is really expensive, little more than the Machine Carbine MK1 (2.920.000 Credits | 9200 Gold) and it depends on what you want to do with it. Hunting light tanks, vehicles, and planes? Then I would say yes. For Anti-Infantry, medium to heavy tanks? It is a maybe. It depends on what you like.

Sadly no, captured weapons broke H&G WW2.


Weapons like StG44, M2 Carbine and PPS-43 are unblanced and destroy the game. Because you only fight against the weapons in war or staged. And it doesn't make any sense to play the other faction when you can just capture the stuff.

How I already wrote in answer above it. It is always the same weapons.

Conclusion

Guys, let's be honest, TLM should completely remove captured weapons. It doesn't make any sense to play the other factions. Except for the vehicles and uniforms. But let me know what you think about captured weapons.
