Yes.. But as Lascivo said, you can't aim down the sights (and the gun models aren't really built for it even if I did add it in).

My opinion is if anyone cares, is that you should decrease the accuracy to the bayonets because rifles in seccesion are like modern day snipers i do not think they were that accurate i could be wrong but decreasing it may attract more people. Personally i like the accuracy but it might be something to try.

I agree with you, accuracy seems a bit too high. I highly doubt they were that accurate(like jaman, I may be wrong  :P). It does provide for a new style of gameplay, but having each side camp somewhere and fire from one side of the map to the other gets old.

i like that people can hit stuff, but in my full opinion everyone being able to hit everything at any distance allows the same things to happen in games, if you charge you usually die, if you camp you usually live, if you form a line your mowed down. just a little nit of change to accuracy could change the gameplay so every linebattle wouldnt be the same old same old. i love the mod and wont give up on it but my opinion is that accuracy or something with the weapon needs to be tweaked so it isnt just finding out how high to aim, add a little randomness to the shot pattern(not extreme), make it so a gun can misfire

i thought id be the last one to ever say this but in my opinion accuracy should be reduced even just to what the bayonet has for accuracy would suffice at least for now

On a serious note. I agree with this. The accuracy of all rifles should be decreased to allow for better linebattles in the future. Also since the number of people attending each week has been dropping we can't really afford the accuracy if we want to have a fun and drawed out linebattle

With a 10 shot grouping with homemade .577 Conical Minie' Balls:

4" at 100 yards
9" at 200 yards
11" at 333 yards
18-1/2" at 400 yards
27" at 500 yards

This was with a authentic 150+ year old Springfield 1863 Type II model, Rifle.
