Even if the M44 was in game (added in via mods) there is no point to fold the bayonet. It is zeroed with the bayonet extended. Shooting with it folded = you missing your target by a significant amount.
the only thing that changes with bayonet folder = control due to less weight at the fore end.
AFAIK all mosins were zeroed with bayo extended, not just m44.
But I could be wrong
flogger, pretty sure not by a significant amount!
the only thing that changes with bayonet folder = control due to less weight at the fore end.
and that's another idea!!
(folded bayonet = different point of impact)
=)
Actually, no.
It changes the barrel harmonics, which will result in the M44 (with bayonet folded) shooting roughly 20cm to the left at 100m.
It's not hard to understand why somebody would want to use the M38 over the M91/30, especially for close-in fighting. Regular 91/30s are unusually long rifles and are an absolute pain in the rear to maneuver indoors. Especially with that foot-long spike fixed at the end.
If RO2 still has weapon collision with the world, that shortened length advantage will be even more valuable.
hmm i don't think another player can walk into your bayonet and receive damage from it right?
that would be an interesting feature
Russian Bayonet = Dull Flat Head screwdriver... At least the M44 I saw had a dull one.

NOTE: M38 CARBINES WERE ONLY ISSUED TO TECHNICAL TROOPS OR CAVALRY. If you were a ammo carrier or a sapper etc you would have a carbine.
perfect!
then with bayonet folded, rifle's point of impact sits 20cm to the left!
model that in game!
I learned something new today. Was it the same with the M44?
There is no point in doing that. Anyone with common sense will have the bayonet extended in order to hit their targets with ease. Folding was just for storage. Keep in mind the M44 won't be in the game regardless. It wasn't used in Stalingrad as it didn't exist until late 1943 and entered full production in 1944. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
