because that wouldnt be fair to the story

yeah

Tbh I feel like I'd like RD1s story better

yeah probably

but overall gameplay is better in 2

because 8 years

and hardware advances

I used the cattleman revolver the whole game.

100 hour work week

Not only that, but it only makes sense.

i was a hypebeast cowboy

i was always packed

That's John's revolver, y'know? It belongs to him, it has history, plus, he's accustomed to it, but it did used the high-power pistol when working with the feds, plus a suit; fit the aesthetic.

nah

i never used pistols

felt to easternly

liked the freedom of the west

the thing i respect most about america

its a symbol

I dont really care more for games, but the red dead saga and gta iv

Though it would've made more sense if they used the 1911 as a template instead of the FN 1903. It was issued to the US army during that period. It's a ubiquitous piece or Americana. It makes sense that the govt would use a new fangled pistol made and trialed just for them.

thats good shit

Same with the bolt action rifle.

It's some sort of Swedish rifle I can't remember the name of.

Instead of the Springfield 1903, like it ought to be.

bolt action is in rdr2 too

and thats in 98 and 99

That's a French Label rifle, right?

found it

norwegeian

Ahh, yes, that rifle. But I thought it was Swedish.

they were pretty much the same country back then

I think the Swedes used mauser copies, though.

they should have copied the combat system from valkyria for battletech

it was standard issue in the american army until 03

I like henry

yeah they did

Huh, so it turns out the US Army did issue the Krag–Jørgensen from 1892-1903 .

Springfield copy of the Krag–Jørgensen.

In the Spanish American war.
