I imagine that this poll will not be popular (because you will have to have known something about history), but which U.S. infantry weapon would be your pick in a WW2 battle?

Mabye, but I was considering the real life gun. Not the game version which cannot jam, overheat, or have many other problems.

Garand all the way, awesome weapon.


Carbine, is pretty much a .22, Tommy gun is poor at long range, BAR is more of an LMG, and Bazooka is not practical nor is the knife. I would like a .45 with the Garand though. Wheres the Grease Gun man?

If I remember correctly thats the revolver, and nothing like its WW2 counterpart.

You really should put the Howiziter on there. Come on a long ranged artilly shell with enough power to still destroy tanks today!

Probablly the M1. It's a good weapon. If it were today then I would pick either an M82 Barret or an M4A1 scoped

I was talking about infantry weapons. Not any kind of armor weapon.
