« The M712, also known as M712 Schnellfeuer, is a magazine-fed, selective-fire version of the C96 Pistol. It is chambered in 7.62x25mm and feeds from a 20-round magazine. Large quantities were bought by China, some of which were then passed on to the NVA.

Overview[]

This section is a stub. You can help Armed Assault Wiki by expanding it.

The M712 is a selective fire, recoil-operated, locked breech semi-automatic pistol. It is chambered to fire the 7.62×25 mm cartridge.

It can only feed from 20-round box magazines. It can attain a fire rate of either ~ 461 rounds per minute on semi-auto[CfgWp 8][Formula 1] or up to ~ 899 RPM on full auto[CfgWp 9][Formula 2], and has a muzzle velocity of 280 m/s.[CfgWp 10]

It is not possible to attach a sound suppressor onto the M712's muzzle. The M712 does not support optical sights and cannot be dual-wielded alongside a flashlight/torch.

Ironsights[]

Arma3-sogpfm712-ironsight-overview

The M712's ironsights are set to a fixed zeroing of 50 metres.[CfgWp 11] It is not possible to manually adjust its settings.

Formulae

  1. 60 / reloadTime = 60 / 0.13
  2. 60 / reloadTime = 60 / 0.0667
  3. Magazine's initSpeed * Ammo's caliber * 15 / 1000 = 425 * 0.99 * 15 / 1000
  4. Weapon's initSpeed * Ammo's caliber * 15 / 1000 = 280 * 0.99 * 15 / 1000

Notes[]

  1. This muzzle velocity only applies to the magazine itself. The M712's weapon class has its own initSpeed value defined (280 m/s) that always takes precedence over the magazine's initSpeed value.
  2. This is the M712's actual muzzle velocity. The weapon class initSpeed value (280 m/s) takes precedence over the magazine initSpeed value (425 m/s).
  3. Damage will be reduced if the projectile's velocity drops below this value.
  4. This is the actual penetration depth of the M712's 7.62 mm ammunition. The weapon class initSpeed value (280 m/s) takes precedence over the magazine initSpeed value (425 m/s), affecting its penetration formula as a result.
