Mosin Nagant

Overview
The Mosin-Nagant (also called the "3-line rifle") is a Soviet bolt-action, sniper rifle featured in Call to Battle 2. It is commonly associated with the Soviet Union which adopted it from 1922 to the mid 1940's, when it was replaced by the AK-47. Various other nations also used the Mosin Nagant, as some still use it to this day.

Showing a need to modernize the equipment of their soldiers, Russian commanders urged for a new standard-issue rifle to replace their, now outdated, single-shot rifles. The M1891 was created by combining the submissions from Russian Captain. Sergei Ivanovich Mosin and Belgian designer Leon Nagant. A series of assessment followed on the newly made rifle. Eventually, it was adopted by Imperial Russian Army. The M1891 got the name "Mosin-Nagant", after a legal dispute between Nagant and the Russian government.

After the Russian Civil War, the Soviet Union adopted the M1891 as the standard-issue rifle of the Red Army. The Soviet Union, began to modernize the M1891, eventually turning it into a sniper rifle. Multiple other countries soon created their own variants of the Mosin-Nagant, such as Finnish M27s, Polish Karabineks, and Chinese Type 53s.

General

 * Being a bolt-action rifle, the Mosin-Nagant is recommended for medium to long engagements, avoid using it in close quarters engagements as enemies may have an automatic weapon on them.
 * Try to aim for the body, as the Mosin-Nagant is able to damage an enemy to very low health. It is advised to finish them with a secondary sidearm.
 * It is recommended to carry a pistol with you, such as the TT-33 or the Korovin TK.
 * It is also recommended to have a bayonet attached to the Mosin-Nagant, detach the bayonet if you are engaging an enemy from a distance, then re-attach it if you are engaging an enemy close up, apart from the M44 Carbine which has a built-in spiked bayonet.

M91 Sniper Rifle

 * The M91 Sniper Rifle has a 3.5x PU scope attached to it, making it ideal for marksmen who wish to deal with enemies from far away. This scope allows the player to switch to the iron sight for close range combat.

M44 Carbine

 * The M44 Carbine has a built-in spiked bayonet, this makes it recommended for players who prefer close to medium ranged combat.
 * It is advised to be as accurate as you can, as the M44 has a more shorter barrel, increasing recoil.

Trivia

 * After the Mosin-Nagants received a new model in version 5.3, the models were unsurprisingly very huge, this proved to be a disadvantage to players as the huge models can clip through blocks. This was later fixed in version 5.4.
