I agree. I don’t know what the greater community thinks about it, but I find it really enjoyable and forces you to try and position yourself differently
Gewehr 98 at #2? Seriously?? It’s the best sniper rifle, but it is not by any means better as a marksman rifle than the Gewehr 95 which is just so well-suited for close/medium range gunfights
the gewehr 98 and mosin nagant marksman should switch places. then its ok. now i dont get it, the marksman optic does not zoom enough for the range of g98
Of course the stupid M1911 is winning again even though it has one of the slowest time to kills across the board. The Gasser gets completely ignored despite the fact it has the longest 2 shot kill range out of any revolver all while even in full auto
Ze insane Medic ive never used m1911 i dont get all the hype around it. personally i use the 450s for each class and those work much better in my opinion
Everyone talking about the Kolibri, the Gasser, the M1911... What about the C93? Has nice damage, an OK rate of fire, good recoil and accuracy... is a jack of all trades, you can never go wrong with it
Memes aside, I have to admit that when grinding out the sidearm 100 kill dogtags, as much as I loved many of them, the Kolibri was by far the most fun. honourable mentions to the P08, Gasser, Howdah, Autorevolver, Modello 1915 and the Obrez.
Imagine A Kolibri With A Mini 10x Scope And A Mini Bipod. Now That's Gotta Be Everyone's Favourite Gun. :D. (Insert Epic Trailer Voice Over Guy) In A World, Where 64 Players , Fight It Out Using Peapod Sized Pistols, With 10x Scopes, And Finger Sized Bipods. (Dum-Dum-Dum) This Year , Dice Ramps It Up A Notch. And They Dont Give, No Absolute Shits Whatsoever. (Dum-Dum-Dum). ONLY IN BATTLEFIELD. (Get It ?, No ? Ok Then :( )
revive syringe is a good competition. The upcoming pigeon is also very useful(if added to main game). Flare gun, crossbow launcher are also fair bet. Health packs are useful, and may win, but the rest are also fair bet. I mainly play as a medic and I can't tell you how many times I have been spotted by a flare gun or killed by a crossbow launcher
Gewehr 98 all the way. No sweet spot needed, just all headshots. That bullet velocity does the trick. I even no scope with that baby when people get the jump on me.
I would like to point out that, as of posting this, the kolibri is 3rd for favorite pistol, only the obrez and 1911 being better. Please vote for the Kolibri, to confuse the f**k out of Westie if nothing else.
Westie you should also do a series similar like this but with the bf1 maps after the launch of the apocalypse dlc. Like the top 5 or 3 infantry maps or vehicle based maps, also a top 5 or 3 operations .
I personally love the Ross MKIII Marksman. It’s bullet velocity is standard but great, the straight pull bolt makes it faster to fire without scoping out, the sweet spot is favorable, and it’s just the best Marksman rifle in the game for me.
So good and in terms of marksman rifles I would have chosen Gewehr 95 because you can be zoomed in the scope during the rechamber process at a cost of low muzzle velocity at 620 meters per second
Westie, I think you should put revolvers(maybe lump in the obrez here too) in a different category than the semiautos. They have wildly different uses and attract different player types. Most people don't bother learning how to use the revolvers whereas the semiautos can be picked up by anyone and used to effectiveness.
My favorite marksman rifle is the rose rifle. I just keep dropping krauts for days with the damn thing, its bolt is the smoothest in the game in my opinion, and I feel the bullet velocity makes it incredibly easy to drop a moving target
I dont like marksman and sniper variants. Only use them when I want to be on the ground shooting enemies at 300 meters. For close and medium ranges, you can acquire targets much faster with open sights.
God is it just me or does ever rifle in bf1 make there own unique sound when you get a headshot or what?! Man it’s so satisfying. Great video. Also my favorite pistols would be the c90, 1911, and kilbri
Maybe, the Gewehr 98 got the second place because people got confused between sniper and marksman variants. I’m one of them. I thought you were saying about both variants, marksman and sniper.
By pistols do you mean all pistols or are you separating revolvers and semiautomatic because my choice for revolvers is either bodeo or mosen negant and for semiautomatic it's the 1911 but that's from a real life bias. Also does the oberez count? Because tequnicaly it's a cut down rifle
Whose favorite "SMG" is M1917 Trench carbine? I wish next Battlefield to have pistol caliber carbines and stocked pistols as niche primary weapon category. I hope also that they expand tanker and airman roles to fill whole crew in gunner seats to be equipped with respective loadout for a vehicle class.
I think the top weapon choices reflect more general gameplay, when you get really skilled you choose weapons that have maybe a severe disadvantage but compliment your game style. I mention this as I look at the poll for the handguns. The 1911 is well rounded overall but not job specific. I'm a fan of the lower damage but high accuracy at close range quick spaz firing handguns. The Frommer stop, Taschenpistole. I like to handle my enemy at range with my primary weapons, and be able to blast off like a mad person with my close range handguns. You trade off higher damage for higher firing speed + accuracy at close range only. That fits my more specific play style, but again that's just me.
You already did the snipers and it got the same 2/3, you've already done all the weapon types and aren't going to get a big difference in doing each little variant. At this point we already know what people are going to pick, regardless of variant.
Since Lebel MOdel 1886 sniper its good for long maps for medium maps and for long too you can use SMLE MKII Marksman i made 3 kill in a row with a bullet with it .
Mars is the best but its a shity sniper clasd weapon so i only use it for pistol kills. The mauser is the second best and its for my second favorite class medic. And since i use support I go with the repetier pistol, how ever you spell lol
I love how (at the time this was posted) the Kolibri is now SECOND for fav. Pls vote for it, because then Westie has to use it to get footage when he posts. We need 800 or so votes to get first, so come on people!!!
I like leading targets at long range its why i prefer battlefield over everything else and personally dont like how easy sniping is in this game almost feels like hit scan cod to me in fact its why i like the shooting mechanics in pubg or sniping in bf4
Idk how i feel about the SMLE being the best markman. Its more for close to medium range so why use a scope? The mosin nagant sweet spot (60-100) is perfect for sniping imo.
Anyone else now finding that because of the new update that any game you join puts you on a team that’s being completely owned, it’s a joke. Also the whole ttk modifiers have just made it easy for the no skill long range kills from the support snipers who can now join medics scout in plinking you off from the other side of the map. Also when will someone address the ridiculous loading times of BF1? Also God forbid you back out of a game, it’s quicker to restart the game than wait to leave a lobby.
I'm absolutely sure M1911 is going to BTFO all other pistols, the 2nd place will go to Obrez and the third will probably go either to Mars Auto or Gasser.
Honest opinion: I legitimately hate the number 1 pick. It's never been a good option for me, and it always takes forever to reload, even with the stripper clip. I'll take the Nagant any day over it.
Westie, on the pistol video. If you don't put Kollibri in 1st place, i will overthrow you and let Eastie take over.
mark. Question
Overthrow*
But here, take my like.
OneLorde kay
guys don't forget northie I think he has a shot too
Kolibri definitely
Kolibri is the best:)
I hope the sweet spot mechanic is here to stay. Such an underrated addition to the game
I agree. I don’t know what the greater community thinks about it, but I find it really enjoyable and forces you to try and position yourself differently
Gewehr 98 at #2? Seriously?? It’s the best sniper rifle, but it is not by any means better as a marksman rifle than the Gewehr 95 which is just so well-suited for close/medium range gunfights
+Spethman Jones See that's what I thought... seemed odd it was voted as #2 Marksman but hey, that's what the community decided!
Westie hey, that just means close range sniper duels will be easier for us then ; )
Spethman Jones gewehr 98 marksman is best gun in the game. I have 96 stars whit it ;D
the gewehr 98 and mosin nagant marksman should switch places. then its ok. now i dont get it, the marksman optic does not zoom enough for the range of g98
Yeah, the 98 marksman is trash. I hated trying to use it to unlock the Mosin. And the Mosin is way better for that role of marksman.
those thumbnails looking damn fine!
+TBAG [Epic Gaming] SupremeX11 does an awesome job! His Flickr is in the description :)
Westie and tbag in the same place! That's crazy!
Where are my details?
TBAG [Epic Gaming] het teabag
oh yeah
Of course the stupid M1911 is winning again even though it has one of the slowest time to kills across the board.
The Gasser gets completely ignored despite the fact it has the longest 2 shot kill range out of any revolver all while even in full auto
Ze insane Medic I voted the Luger P08.
Ze insane Medic ive never used m1911 i dont get all the hype around it. personally i use the 450s for each class and those work much better in my opinion
nobody s gonna deal with the reload time of a revolver
Ze insane Medic i think the mars auto is best
Ze insane Medic i also use gasser
Really hoping the mosin nagant would have at least gotten third place, that gun is totally underrated
Indeed! And it looks so good
NapkinMonster My favorite!
NapkinMonster I think it's better as an infantry gun, but the marksman isn't bad.
Russian 1895 has more rpm,because of it it is better.
A shame the Mosin Nagat Marksman didn't make it to the top three..
Everyone talking about the Kolibri, the Gasser, the M1911...
What about the C93? Has nice damage, an OK rate of fire, good recoil and accuracy... is a jack of all trades, you can never go wrong with it
Ferborn C93 is such a underrated sidearm.
Ugly to boot as well
Memes aside, I have to admit that when grinding out the sidearm 100 kill dogtags, as much as I loved many of them, the Kolibri was by far the most fun. honourable mentions to the P08, Gasser, Howdah, Autorevolver, Modello 1915 and the Obrez.
Imagine A Kolibri With A Mini 10x Scope And A Mini Bipod. Now That's Gotta Be Everyone's Favourite Gun. :D.

i`m getting certain flashbacks to the Bi-pod knife from BF4 lol
Why Do You Capitalize Every Word?
Dylan Monte Never Knew The Comment Section Is An English Class Mate. It’s Just The Way I Type On The Internet :)
Brad Kreapys Its actually quite satisfying, was just wondering why you do it.
Dylan Monte It’s Ok 👌. I Get That A lot 🤣🤣
There should be a gadgets poll next
Surya V health packs would win
revive syringe is a good competition. The upcoming pigeon is also very useful(if added to main game). Flare gun, crossbow launcher are also fair bet. Health packs are useful, and may win, but the rest are also fair bet. I mainly play as a medic and I can't tell you how many times I have been spotted by a flare gun or killed by a crossbow launcher
Spot flare is the most powerful gadget in the game
sallybatzzz
Nah. Limpet charge would win. Best way for saying to a hillhumping, camping sniper "Hello there, your career went downhill".
P08 pistol all the time. Watching the toggle lock animation is fantastic. :)
Is There going to be a different video for Scoped snipers?
I like the Ross rifle but it isn't out yet.
The kolibri must be at least 3rd in the next
Gewehr 98 all the way. No sweet spot needed, just all headshots. That bullet velocity does the trick. I even no scope with that baby when people get the jump on me.
I like the SMLE because I play the objective and it's sweetspot really helps me
2:20 L for not using the infantry varient/Carbine
I would like to point out that, as of posting this, the kolibri is 3rd for favorite pistol, only the obrez and 1911 being better. Please vote for the Kolibri, to confuse the f**k out of Westie if nothing else.
No Mars Automatic?
Westie you should also do a series similar like this but with the bf1 maps after the launch of the apocalypse dlc. Like the top 5 or 3 infantry maps or vehicle based maps, also a top 5 or 3 operations .
@Westie Can you ask DICE, why there's concept art for Battle of Isonzo, but this map is not included in any DLC, especially "Apocalypse"?
Samuel J. Stuhlinger it's the same battle?
there wasn't A battle of Isonzo, they were 12!
Caporetto was the last one, breaking the italian lines and shaking the war on the Alps
I personally love the Ross MKIII Marksman. It’s bullet velocity is standard but great, the straight pull bolt makes it faster to fire without scoping out, the sweet spot is favorable, and it’s just the best Marksman rifle in the game for me.
So good and in terms of marksman rifles I would have chosen Gewehr 95 because you can be zoomed in the scope during the rechamber process at a cost of low muzzle velocity at 620 meters per second

My favorite marksman rifle is the rose rifle. I just keep dropping krauts for days with the damn thing, its bolt is the smoothest in the game in my opinion, and I feel the bullet velocity makes it incredibly easy to drop a moving target
You talked about following up shots with the gewehr m.95 better because you don't have to zoom out but then in the gameplay you were
Breaks my heart that the Martini-Henry didn’t even make the cut! Even nerfed, I feel like a badass nailing enemies with the musket-like rifle!
The medic auto-revolver is pretty good because its the fastest reloading revolver, it doesn't reload 1 bullet at ta time and it has heavy damage.
I dont like marksman and sniper variants. Only use them when I want to be on the ground shooting enemies at 300 meters.
For close and medium ranges, you can acquire targets much faster with open sights.
Maybe the Gewehr M.95 will be replace by the new ross mk.III in the next dlc
The best pistol is the Mle but I've voted the kolibri. EVERYONE VOTE KOLIBRI
Adam Sinnott it's taken the second place 😂😂
Vote Kolibri and you will unlock the bipod for it!
Westie has to get some gameplay with it as well then!
Colonel 100
Or he can nicely ask someone else to share gameplay for him.
my favorite rifles in bf1:
1. arisaka t. 38
2. smle mk.3 (marksman)
3. gewehr m.95 ( carbine)
4. m1903 (marksman)
God is it just me or does ever rifle in bf1 make there own unique sound when you get a headshot or what?! Man it’s so satisfying. Great video. Also my favorite pistols would be the c90, 1911, and kilbri
My favorite is the M1903 Springfield.
Maybe, the Gewehr 98 got the second place because people got confused between sniper and marksman variants. I’m one of them. I thought you were saying about both variants, marksman and sniper.
Mosin Nagant marksman is better
Vote the Kolibri.
By pistols do you mean all pistols or are you separating revolvers and semiautomatic because my choice for revolvers is either bodeo or mosen negant and for semiautomatic it's the 1911 but that's from a real life bias. Also does the oberez count? Because tequnicaly it's a cut down rifle
How is the No.3 Revolver so low? It is basically a faster firing Obrez. Probably one of the most satisfying pistols to use.
I used to play the gewher 98 as marksman but since I tried the sniper I fell in love
Where's the MKIII Ross Marksman? And where do I vote for these?
Just got my hands on
The Care Package skin for the M1911, never gonna even look back at The Doughboy.
You should do a Top 5 next week Westie, there are a lot more pistols in game than primary weapons per class.
Best pistol for me is Frommer Stop. It has the fastest quickdraw which is essential for scouts, and a fast ttk.
If I need range I'll use my rifle. If someone is close I'll finish with my pistol.
Whose favorite "SMG" is M1917 Trench carbine? I wish next Battlefield to have pistol caliber carbines and stocked pistols as niche primary weapon category. I hope also that they expand tanker and airman roles to fill whole crew in gunner seats to be equipped with respective loadout for a vehicle class.

You already did the snipers and it got the same 2/3, you've already done all the weapon types and aren't going to get a big difference in doing each little variant. At this point we already know what people are going to pick, regardless of variant.
I little while ago the kolibri was 8 votes behind the Mars automatic which is third
What skin are you using on the smle?
Still use the SMLE with 4x , tried all the others and it’s still my favourite
Since Lebel MOdel 1886 sniper its good for long maps for medium maps and for long too you can use SMLE MKII Marksman i made 3 kill in a row with a bullet with it .
How do u get the mini map like that....
Does anyone else think the M1911 is overrated?
s_tut 3113 C96 pistol for life! I only use the 1911 when role playing the Americans
Mars is the best but its a shity sniper clasd weapon so i only use it for pistol kills. The mauser is the second best and its for my second favorite class medic. And since i use support I go with the repetier pistol, how ever you spell lol
Chris E. Roberts lol are you me
Chris E. Roberts M1911 ? 9/11!!!!!'
its mediocre statistically, that's what's not to love
My main frustration with this game is the fact that when using the gas mask, the scope option does non functional.
You should also mention, with the M.95 it does 90 damage to the body in close quarters
I use the Gewehr 98 Marksman to hunt shiny things in the distance and sitting ducks inside the Airship's gondolas.
Is it just me or Is the hip fire reticle on pc tighter than on console??
Kolibri is the best pistol
When you go and vote and see Kolibri in second place...
I’m so ready for the Ross Mk3
I love how (at the time this was posted) the Kolibri is now SECOND for fav. Pls vote for it, because then Westie has to use it to get footage when he posts. We need 800 or so votes to get first, so come on people!!!
Kar98k is gonna be so sweet in bf2018!
what are your settings they look good for marksman
How is the m1903 not up there?
1:gewer m95 marks..
2:gewer 98 marks..
3: mosin nagant marks.
Smle. Last place for me.
I like leading targets at long range its why i prefer battlefield over everything else and personally dont like how easy sniping is in this game almost feels like hit scan cod to me in fact its why i like the shooting mechanics in pubg or sniping in bf4
I find that the lebel is great for closer range and my favorite mid range is the mosin nagant m91.
At the time I’m writing this the Kolibri pistol is 3rd place for best pistol... god help us
I use SMLE for close quarter, Martini Henry medium range and long range gewehre 98
Gasser, C93, Bulldog, and Bodeo are my favorite sidearms
The best thing about gewehr 98 is it's sound... Real explosion!
Auto Revolver is the best class-specific pistol obvs. Obrez is the best all-class. Go big or go home (in a pine box).
oh shit kolibri is third place LOLOLOLOL
Idk how i feel about the SMLE being the best markman. Its more for close to medium range so why use a scope? The mosin nagant sweet spot (60-100) is perfect for sniping imo.
"Kolibri" give me a break how many times have you been killed with a Kolibri none what crap.
Isn't the Ross MK3 better? The fact that you can just stay in scope makes it so fast and effective.
I’ve been using it and I started loving it, at the beginning I did not like ir due to the damage vrs other rifles, however is damm fast.
please can you tell me what day #apocalypse update is download for ps4
end of february
my top 3 rifles I use are the Russian 1895 sniper, lebel sniper/infantry and the nagant
Kollibri is gonna win, hands down
Good video. Particularly the BF1 music. Mars automatic pistol all day long.
Voted for the kolibri because nothing feels better than killing someone with a toy, it's my #1 pistol statwise too.
Anyone else now finding that because of the new update that any game you join puts you on a team that’s being completely owned, it’s a joke. Also the whole ttk modifiers have just made it easy for the no skill long range kills from the support snipers who can now join medics scout in plinking you off from the other side of the map. Also when will someone address the ridiculous loading times of BF1? Also God forbid you back out of a game, it’s quicker to restart the game than wait to leave a lobby.
$100 on the 1911 as "Best Pistol"...
Kolibri is the best
you should do a top 3 elite class video in the future westie
I prefer 1.label 1887 2.gewehr 98 3. Mosin nagant
The G 98 is one for my favourite scout weapons
What's the best frag grenade
Westie beware, there's a dude leaving malware and virus links as giveaways under your name in the comments of your poll.
My top marksman is none. Infantry or G98 Sniper... though I'm really into the Experimental...
I'm absolutely sure M1911 is going to BTFO all other pistols, the 2nd place will go to Obrez and the third will probably go either to Mars Auto or Gasser.
ghostbuster *KOLIBRI!*
Westie is the bestie
Honest opinion: I legitimately hate the number 1 pick. It's never been a good option for me, and it always takes forever to reload, even with the stripper clip. I'll take the Nagant any day over it.
Should do the pistols and hand cannons seperately maybe theres so many handguns in the game.
oh dear god when westie has to present number 2 next week we are all gona laugh our butts off
You bearly even showed off the straight pull bolt feature for the m95 lol
HOWDAH PISTOL SWEEPER THE BEST SIDEARM
