Squad is not set in present day, its loosely modern and does not represent factions as they are equipped in 2024
yeah M27s with VCOGs and suppressors are more of a post 2020 thing.
The most they could do is just add more M27s with RCOs(ACOG) since the USMC started to replace M4s with M27 in 2018/19
Basically M27s set up like these photos:
This setup must be for Squad Lead
idk what you mean. like IRL or in-game? Because these are just pictures of regular rifleman. Like most USMC in the 2018-2019 time period had mostly M27 and M4s
I mean in game. USMC SL kit must be an M27 with Grip Pod and ACOG
Around 15 000 of M27 IAR were made total (2020), while USMC is ~200 000 strong force. Most dudes would use M16 at the time Squad set up (mid 2010's).
there is no set time period for squad, but generally the games current equipment is from the 2010-2020 time period which is why we have AK-12s, M17 Handguns, M38s, etc.
And for the 'only 15k M27s' part. Yeah that is true but the M27s are only for infantry, which only accounts for about 20k marines.
and plus in mid 2010's USMC infantry switched from M16A4 to M4: https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-marine-corps/2015/10/26/commandant-approves-m4-as-standard-weapon-for-marine-infantry/
