- "The M1 Iwaniec is a rifle of wartime heroes, characterized by the iconic "ping" its en-bloc clip makes when it gets ejected. Reliable, balanced and semi-automatic, it's an all-rounder masterpiece that has proven its worth in the hands of soldiers, target shooters and hunters alike. Just be careful not to pinch your thumb when reloading it!"
- ― In-Game Description
The M1 Iwaniec Veteran is a semi-auto rifle chambered in .30-06. Built as a war-time weapon, the durable construction and high power made it a favorite of many hunters. The lack of accuracy does limit its use at range, however, its quick follow-up shots make it excel at close-range hunting. The Veteran is the default color variation for this rifle, featuring a well worn walnut stock and black parkerized hardware.
This weapon is available as part of the Smoking Barrels Weapon Pack DLC.
Ammo[]
As with most rifles, two variants of its ammunition are available:
| Ammo | Penetration | Expansion | Class | Range | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| .30-06 Soft-Point | 19 | 53 | 4-8 | 150m | 590 |
| .30-06 Polymer-Tip | 45 | 13 | 4-8 | 150m | 850 |
Variants[]
M1 Iwaniec Reserve is an alternate style that features no wear, as the weapon would have looked when it was brand new. The metal sports a green parkerized finish.
M1 Iwaniec Collection is a variant that is designed to look like a newly built collector's piece. Featuring a stock made from high-quality red wood and its hardware made from stainless steel, it looks less like a wartime design and more like a bespoke rifle.
Trivia[]
- The M1 Iwaniec family is modeled after the M1 Garand, and indeed features the trademark "ping" after ejecting it's en-bloc clip.
- The M1 in real life has a maximum capacity of 8 rounds, with special "5 Round Clips" being purpose made for Hunting.
