119's Edges:

Melee: Normally I'd give this to the bayonet for its reach when attached to a rifle and the fact it can be carried at the same times as rifle, but the Taliban doesn't have a weapon that can mount a bayonet in this match, so it's essentially a knife. Machete beats knife due to greater length. Edge: VC

Pistols: The Tokarev TT-33 has a higher muzzle velocity, but actually smaller rounds, however, the Makarov has larger rounds, but lower muzzle velocity. This Evens it out in my opinion.

SMG: The PPSH-41 takes this for its larger magazine and superior rate of fire. Edge: Taliban

LMG: The RPD is older, but more reliable, with less propensity to jam than the PKM. Edge: VC

Grenades: The VC's RGD-33 takes this simply because of the way they use it- both as a thrown grenade, and as a booby trap. Edge: VC

X-Factors: The VC take the X-factors of markmanship and combat experience, having taken on three major world powers, Japan, France, and the US, and driven all three out.
