User blog comment:Thundrtri/Season 1 Episode 12: GROM VS Spetsnaz GRU/@comment-5790624-20121106201130

Spetsnaz tend to use the MP-443 Grach, it has a very good firing system and a big magazine. Also, maybe you should write your own stuff about the warriors instead of just copying it from wikipedia, alot of people do that for blog battles, pages are different but for blog battles we tend to write our own stuff.

On with the vote. I think this will turn to the GRU's favour. Let's brake down the weapons, X-factors and other details to find out!

Weapon Comparison

FN Five Seven vs. Makarov

And easy win for the Five Seven here. No need to brake down any details, the Five Seven's standard 20 round magazine will crush the Makarov's tiny 8 round magazine.

Edge: GROM

Heckler & Koch HK416 D10RS Variant

The HK kicks off this comparison with the advantage of weight, the D10RS Variant weighing in at 6.66 lb compared to the AN-94's weight of 8.49lb, giving the HK the advantage of being lighter and easier to handle. The HK416 continues it's advantage with a firing utilising an open bolt and stroke piston which is much healthier than the AN-94's gas power. The HK416 finishes the kill with it's crushing rate of fire, calculating at 700r/m compared to the AN-94's 600r/m.

Edge: GROM

SR-25 vs. Dragunov SVD

The Dragunov kicks off with the advantage of weight here. Weighing in at 9.48 lb compared to the SR's weight of 10.75 lb. While both guns have the same firing system and same sized magazine, no other data is specifyed for the SR-25, giving the Dragunov the advantage.

Edge: Spetsnaz GRU

M249 vs. PKP Pecheneg

The M249 takes the advantage of weight here to start off with, weighing in at 17 lb compared to the PKP weighing at 19 lb. The M249 also relies off a rotating bolt unlike the PKP, meaning the M249's firing system is much healthier and does not overheat as soon. The M249 continues the advantage with a muzzle velocity of 915m/s compared to the PKP's 825m/s, meaning the M249 is more powerful. The M249 finishes the kill with a maximum range of 3400m compared to the PKP's 1500m

Edge: GROM

X-factors

Mean X-factors for GROM: 87.4

Mean X-factor for Spetsnaz GRU: 88.8

We can see that the Spetsnaz GRU are superior in: The GRU have the majority of X-factors even though I heavily disagree with weapon reliability as evident by my comparisons. As a result by their crushing advantage in X-factors and longer time since fomration I'm going to have to give this to Spetsnaz GRU.
 * Physicality
 * Operational Experience
 * Training
 * Weapon Reliability (I strongly disagree with this)
