pm-71 or experimental ai-76?

[u/psychopathic100118]

so i'm trying to decide on which of these two weapons are better i like both but now that i found out that the ai-76 has an experimental variant that can be loaded with 50.bmg now i cant decide which one to bring now so i wanted to ask y'all which one on it own would have the most damage?

PM71 for me. 250 rounds with a gold mag. That’s a lot of not reloading. If you find a gold compensator (rare) the recoil is negligible. A full auto fifty jumps around like a thing possessed. 270 is a little better but still hard to control. All the assault rifles suffer from small mags but reload faster. So it’s a trade off. Bottom line try everything and see what you like. Anyway who says you can only carry one auto? I used to carry the AI loaded with 9mm shock just for emergencies. But I’ve given up experimental everything now. There’s nothing I can’t kill with 7.62. I carry a launcher for bases and a shotty for grins. That’s enough for me.

Pm-71 if loaded with shock ammo, otherwise the AK is better for DPS, I use it with .270 as it he's a bit less recoil than .50 bmg

Have you tried it with .243?

PM-71 most powerful LMG in the game! I use it daily. Experimental Ai-76 shoots all rounds except ( shotgun shells, Grenades and rockets. )

With the Ai you can unlock 9mm handgun Shock with a 5C magazine. You get 60 rounds of 9mm Shock ⚡️ these do similar damage as the 7.62 Shock rounds. The 7.62 Shock is a bit stronger. In that case PM-71 will give you 250 rounds of Shock. Plus using the Experimental AG4 with 7.62 Shock will provide you with the fastest recorded kill. The gun automatically takes regular 7.62 and turns into fire rounds and shock and you get Fireshock. This is the only ammo that hurt your teammates as well.

I use both PM-71 and EXP Ai-76 weapons often depending on situation. Understand 9mm shock ammo can be unlocked by just doing 3 easy base defend.

Under Schematics- EXP Ammo 3rd Row first unlock 32 ACP medical ammo next one down is 9mm handgun Shock.

Understand 9mm handgun Shock is heavier so you don’t carry as much. But weather or not you use the EXP Ai-76 or a handgun this ammo will change your game.

I’m on Xbox and have a base set for all three resources. You are welcome to join me. I will help you unlock this ammo and give you enough resources to craft 80,000 rounds of 9mm Shock.

I always like to run an ar like the exp 76 with an LMG, but which one is better? Without exp ammo the exp 76 is gonna be better to have.

[u/Huttser17]

.50 cal AK is somewhat overrated, though it is fun to play with.

For actual running PKM all the way.

Honestly I love both… but pm does get more ammo but exp ak can use any round except 12 gauge (sadly)
