Not at the same brian. You can use both of them of course one at the time. It defense on the situation.

Even though in the game (cod i mean). You can't use two primaries at the same time. Only side arm and pistol with dual mode. :P

My point is, i got mid range to long range instead of long and short range.
Does make sense? :P

Judging from most posts on this thread, your variable range point seems justified... however, IMO a L96 and a m4a1 seem like quite a heavy load to carry around, plus the two sets of mags... If you have the luxury to do so, maybe swap the m4 for a smaller AEG... I'm sure you can reach those first 125ft or so easily with any PDW as Brian mentionned.

A rifle and a pistol side arm is good enough for me.

One of my M4 have a launcher on it, that should count as two.

Just do it if you want to. You'll be the one to decide if it's workable or not...and probably quickly so.

In a practical sense though at most games there's really no need to. Field limits are usually set and the extra 50fps is immaterial in most every scenario. To that end...just make sure your M4 is working well and work within those parameters....or just stick with your L96 and work within those. Most guys with a bolt gun team up with a spotter who also does the closer range security stuff.

If having two rifles with a potential 50fps difference really was a huge advantage game in and out then you'd have a thread full of guys saying, "Yeah, I do it all the time" vs. the opposite. That should clue you in right there.

Oh! well then that is different..

I used to run Primary with MP7 in a leg holster, but most of the time its super annoying so I don't run that very often.

Dragonshredder · October 19th, 2012, 09:32

I've dual wielded a G36E and a GBBR M4

BennyBoy · October 19th, 2012, 09:41

Probably best to run two rifles that use same magazines....PDW and M4! or Scar-L and M4, Scar-L and PDW

redzaku · October 19th, 2012, 09:52

is the OP's body is able to carry it for a long periods of time? like police officers, they have to carry issued gear for long periods at a time, many agency chose the glock 17 for a reason, light weight and durable, and they conditioned themselves to do so, through training and repetition
it is all about your own body, you do not care about the next guy over, thinking, that guy over there, he can carry a m249 and an m4, I can do it too but when you do so, you find out you can not, and wham, you become disappointed in yourself
it is all about your own body

MB1 · October 19th, 2012, 14:33

Haven't try it yet. But im not planning to run around carrying two weapon (L96 and m4) i'll probably use it to defend a base, or some scenario that i can sit and defend at the same time...

:^) · October 19th, 2012, 15:56

I have duel wield 2 m4 before and in my first year I have done a g3 and a m4. It was fun reload was a bitch tho...

Oh and I use to run a mp5k a m4 and a glock.

boostedE92M3 · October 25th, 2012, 19:53

Thinking of running an L96 and my M4, as well as my colt sidearm. Not for cqb though, for that winter war event on December 1st

GBBR · November 4th, 2012, 10:56

dual m249! and m60 being my side arm.

that would be overkill.

Talking about me? LOL

R.I.T.Z · November 4th, 2012, 15:55

but on a serious note i've seen snipers carry a secondary and a side arm.
but thats due to the MED.
past that I've seen a couple players carry some shotguns in addition to their rifles.
more stuff = more weight = less maneuverability.
