====================>

some of the things i changed in my group was changing the 45's range to 15 
(for pistol) and 20 (for SMG). i also changed the crit to 18 to reflect the 
45's harder hitting capacity (however, i balanced it by adjusting the damage 
from 2d6+2 to 2d8).
i changed 50cBMG to 2d12 and the PV to +10.
i took the BAR up to 2d10 with a PV of 0.
i also added the MP 34 (9mm SMG), Mauser C-96 (1931 model with the 10/20 det 
clip) and the Mk VI Webley .455 revolver (my brit wanted it).
seems to work well in my group...
