WARDOGS Weapons: Rifle Guides, Ammo & Attachments

Choose a rifle around the equipment you can access, the sightlines you expect and the kit you can afford to replace. Use the Galil guide for recoil-control and magazine choices, or the AK74 guide for 5.45x39mm ammunition, fire modes and a low-magnification optic setup.

Galil magazine and attachment guide

Compare recoil-control parts, aiming penalties and a complete assault-medic configuration.

AK74 ammunition and optic guide

Check 5.45x39mm supplies, fire modes, the 3 kg weapon listing and Four Reticle Reflex.

Rifle	Setup covered	Decision to make
Galil	TDG Vertical Foregrip, Topcomp Brake and 35- versus 50-round magazines	Balance recoil control and magazine capacity against aiming-speed penalties.
AK74	5.45x39mm ammunition, Semi / Full Auto and Four Reticle Reflex	Prepare compatible ammunition and decide whether a 1.2x fixed-zeroing sight fits your route.

Attachment fit and handling tradeoffs

Use the weapon’s attachment menu to check fit before purchasing. A part fitting the Galil does not establish that it fits the AK74, and an optic example is not a list of every optic that the rifle accepts.

Compare the assembled rifle after adding parts. ADS speed describes the transition into aiming; it is different from stabilizing the sight while already aiming. Several control improvements can come with accumulated aiming-speed penalties.

The weights in this table belong to individual parts. Add the rifle, magazine, ammunition and carried kit when checking the full loadout’s weight category.

Equipment	Item weight	Weapon fit	Benefits	Tradeoffs
TDG Vertical Foregrip	0.13 kg	Fits: Galil. Check other weapons in the attachment menu.	Strong vertical recoil reduction; Strong ADS stabilization; Strong vertical sway reduction; Moderate horizontal recoil reduction	Moderate ADS-speed penalty; Minor equip-speed penalty
Topcomp Brake	0.1 kg	Fits: Galil. Check other weapons in the attachment menu.	Moderate vertical recoil reduction; Minor horizontal recoil reduction; Minor spread reduction	Minor ADS-speed penalty
Four Reticle Reflex	0.12 kg	Fits: AK74. Check other weapons in the attachment menu.	1.2x magnification; Fixed zeroing; Moderate ADS-speed improvement	Not listed

Pack ready reloads and reserve ammunition separately

Check the contents of a saved and re-bought kit

Inspect the purchased equipment before leaving the vendor.

Select the rifle first, then choose a compatible magazine and ammunition through its menu. For the AK74, check the 5.45x39mm label.
Pack filled spare magazines for reloads during contact. Loose ammunition alone does not provide a ready magazine swap.
Carry reserve ammunition if your task requires refilling magazines between encounters. Leave room for the medical or specialist equipment that makes the kit useful.
When comparing magazine sizes, consider both capacity and handling. The Galil’s larger 50-round option trades more rounds between reloads for a slower ADS setup.
Before deploying or rebuying, inspect what is actually in your inventory: weapon, attached magazine, filled spares and reserves.

Check acquisition before comparing complete kit costs

A weapon’s one-time unlock and its vendor purchase are different costs. Check the current track requirement, whether you already own the unlock and the price for buying the rifle again.

Price the complete selection: rifle, attached parts, magazines, ammunition, protection and role equipment. Practice-range prices of $0 are not a usable live replacement budget. Enter the current vendor amounts into the planner.

Keep enough cash for a fallback that still performs the task. Removing an optional optic can preserve a viable kit; removing all ready reloads or the tool needed for your role changes what the loadout can do.

Understand unlock tracks and one-time purchases

Separate access requirements from repeat equipment spending.

Calculate rifle and full-kit replacement costs

Use current shop amounts, quantities, owned unlocks and your available balance.

Turn the rifle into a loadout for a specific job

Budget infantry loadout

Keep the essential rifle kit replaceable while learning the objective.

Galil assault-medic loadout

Combine fighting with a defibrillator, batteries and casualty support.

Recon observation loadout

Choose the equipment and approach for spotting and reporting.

Compare WARDOGS loadouts by task

Choose a role before adding more equipment to the rifle setup.
