m10 sights

[monsjoex]

Are way too small after the change. Please revert this in the next patch.

Also other than making it smaller nothing else seems to have changed?

Thread with screenshots, thought it was a mac bug initially:

I can live with all the changes except the M10, it's just plain wrong to me unless I get an explanation as to why the max magnification has been shrunk so much.

[major0noob]

not many use the m10, made a thread about this awhile ago.

i think it's for historical accuracy, the super thin lines are painful to use though. i mean, my eyes hurt when i had to use them...

Kick.

Live with it. There have been enough threads and documentation. Not a single comment from a rat on it.

Apparently it's for historical accuracy.

Bump.

See another screenshot.. this is a AB veh 1.3km away .. I can't even set the sights properly because the black lines are so tiny they dissappear if the background is only a bit dark.

Two screenshots from the other topic i referenced to before:

Says the M70G.

A forum post is doubting:

"M10 Wolverine:

This is where the opinions really differ... some say the M71D, magnification 5x, FOV 13°, others say the M70G (have no details about this one). Does anybody have any official documents? "

M70G telescopic gun sight.

The M10 3inch GMC used the M70G 3x direct sighting telescope for direct fire.

Q: Found a M70G in antique shop dtd 1943. Ccn anyone tell me what it is used with?

A: My TM 9-2300 dated 1944 lists it as for a 3-in. M7 gun used on a 3 in G.M.C. M10a1 carrage. The only difference between the alpha versions of these scopes is the reticle used for the weapon it was being used for. C, D, F, G, N, P, Q, are all the versions listed. Firing Table;3-R-1 . Deflections;30-0-30 mils . Range Yards; 4,200 . Instrument Light; M10 or M33 . The carrage looks alot like a Sherman but the turret was open and the vehicle is known as a Tank destroyer. In my 1949 version of the same TM, the G version is dropped from use. I see them some times at Knob Creek.
