| Description | I've been reading info about subsonic rounds, they seem to follow the principle of less powerful powder loads coupled with heavier projectiles. The Vintorez/ASVal come to mind and they have this pleasant low recoil that's very cool to shoot.

This isn't an AK, but if you look at 09:23 you'll see him firing a magazine loaded with 5 normal rounds plus 5 subsonic rounds in sequence. You can see the huge difference in recoil.

These are AK's with normal and subsonic 7.62x39 rounds (although not exactly the russians 57-N-231 and 57-N-231U, but you get the idea). You can look at the recoil of normal rounds at 04:24 and compare to the recoil of the subsonic rounds at 06:47 and 08:47. Subsonic recoil is visibly smaller.
Now about the actual russian 57-N-231U round, it's not easy to find recoil info about it, but I really doubt this wouldn't be lower than the recoil of the normal supersonic round. I know you guys like to implement the small realistic details in this mod, imagine how cool it would be to run spec ops with low recoil silenced AK-47's and AK-74's!!
Thanks for the great mod anyway!! |
