Uriel999 posted: The M4 actually is a fantastic weapon. The m4 feed ramps are superior. The 1:7 twist allows for stabilization of heavier grain bullets from the M855 62 grain nato stamp ammo to hotter 77 grain rounds. The flat top allows for acogs, eotechs, or aimpoints to be mounted as well as any other optic you would like and combined with a good BUIS you can either cowitness or keep them down and out of the way so nothing gets in the way...

I haven't tried leveling like that in a long time because it didn't work. Unless they changed it you have to equip the highest level of the skill you have to level it any higher. Obviously this doesn't count for unlocking skills that you can't equip yet. Once they are unlocked you will have to equip them to level any further.

Also, somebody wondered where military surplus weapons go. To the chagrin of gun owners everywhere the US government has made it illegal to sell surplus weapons and ammunition to civilians so they sell and or give the arms to other nations.

So what exactly happens to weapons that are now considered obsolete? I'm thinking of the following possibilities: 1) While better weapons are now available a gun is a gun so they keep it in their gun ranges for soldiers to train with. And on the R&D side of things I can imagine they would want to keep these weapons so they can weigh the good and bad in the previous models and apply that to making improvements in future weapons....

Yo I know not many here play or like MGO but I know there's a few pros. I have a question about leveling up your skills. If I have a skill that is at level 2, will using it at level 1 still help it level up? For example, I have runner at level 2. Let's say before a match for my skills I pick CQC+ level 3, which has a cost of 3. With my last 1 spot left I use Runner level 1, because that's all I have room for. During the match...

You can only progress to the next skill level by equipping the highest skill level for that skill and going into combat with it. If you want to level the EASY way, which, if you're pressed for time like me and don't care to get the supposed "experience", find a leveling room specific to the skill you want to develop, and then go crazy with it.
