Arsenal not displaying M855A1 magazines
« on: February 09, 2015, 05:21:50 PM »
So the arsenal boxes in the 506th OUST training map, for whatever reason, does not give me the option to equip myself with M855A1 or M856A1 magazines. Other players can though, as far as I am aware. The only ammo that displays in the arsenal selection for the M4 and M4A1 are MK318 magazines and vanilla ARMA 5.56 magazines. If anyone can help me brainstorm what could be the problem, that would be much appreciated.

The last thing I heard regarding magazines is that we're only authorized to use the vanilla "5.56mm 30rnd STANAG" magazines, their red tracer variants and the "100Rnd Belt Mag (5.56x45mm)" for the M249.

I'm sure we'll get some official response on this, but in the meantime this is what I remember being told when I made the Arsenal whitelist and the OSUT map. As for how other people can see the M855A1/M856A1 magazines, they probably have some of them in their gear already. Only things you already have on you or gear that is whitelisted will show up in the arsenal.

Hope that helps for now.

Interesting as I remember on day one of OUST being to pick up M855A1 magazines for the M4. If the arsenal box is only supposed to issues vanilla arma magazines then ok.
