Does the M95 or L96A1 do any damage to armor? Should I be firing at enemy armor when its flamming to 'get the kill'?

So it must be doing damage then? Or else you could do "player [Knife] guy in the tank"...Originally posted by Importskyline22I dont really think it does damage. But it is fun when you see a tank about to blow up. Shoot it one time and then boom. player[m95] guy in the tank.

When I'm in a tank and I hear small arms fire from one direction I look in the other direction. 9 times out of 10 he's trying to distract me long enough for a SpecOps or Engineer to get close.Originally posted by JimmyNoobtronYep, that is why I do it. No use running and dying a coward's death. Perhaps I'll distract the tank enough to get him killed by some other guy.
Anyhow I'm still on the fence with this. Reason is I don't get the "hit locator" when I shoot at armor.Comment

If you get the hit indicator when you shoot something, you did damage, otherwise it just bounced off.
The M95 does double the damage to vehicles that the L96 does.
Very smart. Last night in a game of Spec Forces, I was hosing my MP7 at an APC. He tried to kill me but I kept ducking out of sight, juuuuust long enough for my squad mate to strap 2 presents onto him and send him off for 15 seconds of quiet reflection.Originally posted by HarmorWhen I'm in a tank and I hear small arms fire from one direction I look in the other direction. 9 times out of 10 he's trying to distract me long enough for a SpecOps or Engineer to get close.

No no no,Originally posted by HarmorWhat? I thought the L96A1 does the same damage that the M95, but has the accuracy of an M24?
To put it clearly:
M95 - 95HP to *both* armored and non armored enemies
L96/M24 - 95HP for non armored, 65HP for armored.
The L96 is superior to the M24 in that it has a 5 second reload instead of 6 seconds, and arguably a better scope. It is also quieter, it's almost like a silent sniper rifle.Comment
