so can somebody tell me why they are so obsessed with integrally suppressed weapons or such a long suppressor?
>>63063407because Russians are rats and do things deceitfully
>>63063407Soul
>>63063407they're very very quiet, both sides liked them in Chechnya and for good reason, personally I've thought they're pure sexo since my first SoC playthrough years ago
>>63063407For the most part they aren't, they just had money trouble. The VSS/VAL were the guns they wanted, but for much of the 90s they simply couldn't afford them in quantity; so a slew of cheaper alternatives were produced instead; 9a91, VSK, Groza, etc. The SR3 is the VAL 2.0, and was even more expensive; hence why it was designed in the early 90s but remained mostly unheard of until their economy stabilized in the mid-2000s. The VSK was the same general concept as the VAL, being a suppressed counter terror rifle, but for snipers rather than doorkickers.
>>63063407no idea but I wish I could own one
>>63063435They also drop so much you can't hit target 200 meters from you
>>63063407because their internals are extremely basic. the VSS suppressor is literally a bent piece of flat steel.
>>63063407their suppressors suck, pretty much. that's why they're so big. A full size 1911 has a longer barrel than the Vintorez before porting.>>63063435>they're very very quietlol, no. the suppressor is shit tier loud. they're quiet compared to an unsuppressed 9x18mm SMG
>>63063813i didnt need to see that pic anonyouve ruined it for me forever
Stalker 2 rightfully made them mid tier guns instead of endgame
>>63063801wouldn't matter much in Grozny or heavily wooded forests and mountains, I'm not saying they're wunderwaffe but they were popular for a reason>>63063813fuck, is it too much for them to do anything right? I thought they were pretty cool for a long time
>>63063407doesn't Ian have a video on the vss that shows its a very short barrel with a lot of empty space an a few baffles in the front
