I always loved the Martini, but I can't stand using the Springfield.

love the martini. To me it feels like an aggressive version of the Sparks. Super cheap and I love running explosive in its alternate slot. I dont use it much but it's always helpful to blow open reinforced doors and windows, especially since in the 4 star range most hunters dont know how to react when a "safe" door is suddenly open. Also helps speed up fights when all the windows are wide open and you can see into the whole compound. Plus, the explosive ammo on the Henri can one tap immolators to the chest. They still explode but they immediatelydie. Dont always run FMJ cause the martini already has slow muzzle speed, plus I like to have an ammo pool i can reliably refill, running explosive/fmj i need special ammo boxes, running regular = no problem

Funny enough, upgrading Sprinfields ended up costing same amount of resources if not more than building new riffles, because old barrels couldnt handle new ammunitions pressure levels so they should been swapped too.

I don't think it was the barrels, I think it was all the time to machine and fit the bits. By the time the relatively inexpensive conversion components were competently installed, the labor and materials suddenly matched or exceeded the cost of new manufacture rifles and the end product wasn't as good either, because they were still little more than hacked up surplus rifles at the end of the day. The barrels should have been fine since smokeless powder was still a couple of decades away from mass adoption and the metallic cartridge rounds weren't much different in performance from the paper cartridges they originally fired

No, actually. The issue was that they reduced the caliber from .58 to .50 and in doing so had to insert a barrel sleeve which wasn't the most sturdy. the remedy for that was to simply elongate the receiver of the trapdoor mechanism. Later production rifles (around 1870 or so) did have new barrels but mostly because the stock of old barrels was running low. Even with new barrels the rifles were much cheaper than making something new because, while the barrel was the most expensive part, they basically got every other piece of the rifle for free; all the lockwork, furniture, etc.

Hey! For anyone who is curious about playing that over-the-shoulder co-op shooter version of Hunt depicted at the beginning of the video: Before it's closure, CryTek USA spun off into Gunfire Games and made "Remnant: From the Ashes" which shares a lot of DNA with that proto-hunt. It's a different setting, more 1920s Lovecraftian apocalypse. It's a decent enough game to play with friends. My Hunt crew and I played that one together and enjoyed it.

I love the Springfield, it really is my favorite gun in hunt. The fact that you get the most explosive ammo to use as utility compared to any other gun that gets explosive is huge. Popping open doors & windows or setting off traps & barrels, makes it something I almost always grab.

Such a satisfying gun, and the 2 second reload is actually pretty clutch for certain fights. While I prefer the marksman variant, the hipfire on the base springfield is incredibly accurate, I’ve landed more headshots with this hipfire than any other gun.

I hope they add a muzzle loaded "Springfield 1866 Classic" with a "Hot Load" special ammo (simply more powder) which acts as FMJ with more damage, just for fun.

Someone did some testing and the springfield is actually slower to reload (2.8 seconds) compared to the henry (2.6 seconds). Once again the in game stats fail us

So for clarification about "quick rate of fire", remembering that this game is loosely based around the post-civil war era in what appears to be the deep South, the 1872 Trapdoor Springfield was hailed as a cheap but effective modernization to the U.S Army's current line-up of firearms. 1. You had the Henry Repeating rifle, arguable one of the best of it's class but expensive. 2. You had the Spencer Repeating rifle, not as good as the henry but still up there in terms of capability of sustaining fire. Cheaper than the henry but still rather costly. 3. You had the Whitworth rifle which was more or less more common amongst confederate arms stockpiles. Was known for it's excellent accuracy and precision as well as strange hexagonal shaped bullets. 4. You had the Sharps rifle/carbine which was an accurate single shot breach loading carbine (Known as the Sparks LLR in this game), it was cheaper than the repeaters but still much more expensive than the Springfield/Enfield muzzleloaders. So, by the end of the war approx. over 700,000 Springfield rifles we're produced versus the roughly 12-15,000 Sharps rifles/ 90,000 Sharps carbines/6-7,000 Henry repeating rifles/ and about 200,000 Spencer rifles. Not to mention the scarcity of Whitworth rifles as they we're a British import to the South. Which means, the Springfield rifles remained as the Army's primary firearm for several years until the Conversion of the Springfields to the Trapdoor mechanism. Which technically improved the Fire-rate of the U.S Army despite it only being used by Pioneers and US Cavalry out west (also known as the buffalo Soldiers) until it was later phased out by the Krag-Jorgenson Rifle in 1892.

Potentially on brand for Hunt's wacky 19th century military and military-adjacent kit would be the Springfield's experimental trowel bayonet. What would make it special? I don't know, but it's a shovel.

bit weird as in real life the trapdoor springfield (at least the military version) was chambered in 45/70, which is a rather large bullet

I got 5 hunters with basic springfield in one match. It aint bad rifle, hip fire is small so if you land one shot, and get to cover or simply avoid getting shot, you can manage around. And no, i wasnt sniping them, it was active fighting and pursuit in building where I defended bounty with an ally against agressive and mobile hunters. They died, we lived, and went out to ressurect our colleague who died before getting bounty.

I'd never actually buy a Springfield, but I agree, that it is fun to use with bleeding ammo, especially when you have tons of this weapon for free, because every 2nd free hunter has it.

Hey man, love your videos keep them coming. I would love to see a video on whether dual wielding pistols is worth it, Vs a compact Winfield with levering, or a handcannon shotgun or something similar? Might be a little too wide ranging for one of your guides, idk. But loving the content, and I keep checking PC gamer to see if you have another article!

All of these points were spot on, imo. I do enjoy using this gun quite a bit though. Though infrequent in my playtime, it's so satisfying when you get the bleed kill from using dum dum in a mid range fire right. You can just feel the other player panicking on the other side of the server.

I had this mad idea ages ago, basically since all the classic Hunt guns (Mosin, Nagant revolver, Romero etc.) All have some kind of ultimate modification, what about lifting a Mauser 1889 action and fitting it to a Springfield rifle? That way you could practice with a bolt action clip-fed rifle early in the game that came with Dum-Dum and explosive rounds for maximum pain.

i personally enjoy running the terminus with levering and quartermaster to chime in the Springfield compact for that long range and short range capability. ill use the dum dum with it to add some more pressure to the target with a normal ammo slot on the side for pen. imho this loadout best suits me with a parter who does fanning on both chain slots. gotta love my boi medic.

i love the iron sight on springfield, ive made a lot of headshots with it, I feel like its the best headshot weapon at medium close ranges

Love your videos man. Seriously, do Marauders weapon reviews like this!!

Springfield gets massive style points in my opinion. I have gotten many kills with the hipfire too.

I'd argue "decent" hipfire aim is an understatement but overall amazing video

Yeah, you can create a loadout that's under 175 hunt dollars using the springfield and a nagant revolver, if you brought only a medkit and a $15 melee, you can make the loadout sub $100. There's such a slim chance that you come out of a match with less than $100 earned, I'd be thoroughly impressed if someone could manage to back to back get less than 100 outta a match.

Nice vid! There's a lot of talk about the crown and king, might that be worth a video? The same goes with the Avtomat, now that you can get a ton of ammo back if you take 2 sparks pistols along with it.

Just wondering, are you going to make a video for the full size mosin nagant? I really enjoy your videos and am actually learning a fair bit about the game, so I also wanted to thank you for the videos you've already got put together

I am glad you enjoy the videos! A couple tips to land more headshots: 1) check your sensitivity in the settings. A lower ADS sensitivity might make fine tuning a little easier 2) If you are on PC, lower your field of view to its lowest setting (85 I think), this can make targets bigger 3) use high velocity ammo. High velocity ammo on the winfield, the centennial's base ammo, and the bolt action long ammo rifles have a pretty high velocity which means you'll have to lead less. That can turn headshots into a point and click adventure 4) Use better sights. The winfield and the mosin have really clean posts. Easy to use and align.

I love this gun. It's satisfying to use, essentially free, and honestly smacking someone up close with the dumdum gives them the spook just as much as a sparks shot. Plus it compliments the pax-my favourite handgun.

I don't use Springfield mainly because it's odd muzzle velocity throws me off so much at distance.

The catch is that like the mini spark, the reload can stop without reason, and ruin your fight.

Aaaaaaaaah, Shirley that wasn't an Airplane reference!

What's the game in the intro, right after first Hunt clip? :O

Springfield is my go-to for budget loadouts, pair with a scottfield for sidearm

Springfield 1/2 dumdum plus scottfield swift with fanning is five full clips of pistol ammo that shoots fast and reloads faster, while still having a decent hat trick at medium long range with the bleed ammo.

2:25 oi thats classified information

Dude, this was comedic gold! Thanks for having me laugh, besides being educational ;)

I was doing explosive Springfield, and dum dum sidearm during the event and it was hitting hard.

I personally prefer the Springfield to the Sparks, and by a pretty considerable margin. Sparks is more than 5x the price of a Springfield, reloads half as fast and still obscures a portion of your view while aiming on top of all that. Plus I'd much rather run a Marksman scope than a Sniper, and an explosive pocket rifle with knife attachment over a single shot pistol (Though it's pretty close.) I might be in the minority... but give me the Springfield any day. Alternatively, put a Martini Henry in my hands and I'll have absolutely nothing to complain about.

since it uses the medium ammo Crytek should really ad the Cavalry Carbine version of the Springfield. even though we have sawed off versions it would be a much better fitting of the playstyle suited for this gun an caliber.

ya. it is kinda wild we got poison ammo for it now but still no bayonette

Springie dumdum is definitely a way to go. I do enjoy blasting it from time to time. Thanks for the video!

Springfield is actually is a bit better on console due to its sway pattern. I find it MUCH easier to aim the Springfield on the sticks compared to most other weapons.

Springfield reloads are so quick that they're the only single-shot gun I'm willing to ever take without a pistol for finishing kills. Still shouldn't, but sometimes when summons demand, a hand crossbow is at least doable... But where it really shines is not when you pair it with the pax sadly. At least, not for the sake of dumdum. Play the springfield with dumdum, and pair it with an FMJ pistol or the like. Bleed your enemy, then hammer them through the walls to finish your kills. Having a high-pen pistol also means you don't have to play that dumb minigame of guessing what ammo type you should have loaded in your rifle, based on whether you need penetration. It's as simple as getting your pistol out when you need pen, and using the springfield otherwise. You're probably never gonna burn through all 12 (or 24) shots of dumdum with just the springfield using them anyway, so there's no reason to pool ammo for it.

I know it's not as good as the other single shot rifles but I prefer it to the others because it's drip or drown in the bayou.

I'll be honest I wished the Springfield had poison ammo instead of Centennial. That said, I've put alot hunters down with a Spring Marksman and some crazed machete flailing when they get too close.

i have a joke set up called the "ill Spring bomber" : scope ver + striker ver + explosive ammo feels stupid but extremely fun n usefull after mastering it

So the gap from small to medium ammo is not a huge difference and then you have the gap between medium and Large and its HUGE. So now you have the Uppercut in large ammo. Its soo much better then all other handguns its not even close. They made it more expensive but its still incredibly meta. Making it more expensive STILL didnt offset the value of the gun. Its so good that it would need to be like 3 times more expensive. Its better then all the other handguns and a good amount of rifles too which makes zero sense. They either need to make medium better so that the handguns can somewhat compete from a value standpoint.$414 is still stupid cheap for what this handgun can do.

Imagine if high velocity ammo came out for it 🤔
