The Nagant Officer Carbine Deadeye is an Imperfect Sniper

The Nagant M1895 Officer Carbine Deadeye used to be a head clicker, but in recent patches, its spam ability has lost its luster. This gun is great as either a sniper or a quick firing pistol, yet almost never both at the same time. This guide should tell you how to use it. It helps if you like Kung Pow!

Hey bro, I got the reference When are we gonna hang out

[@Verbose_Mode]

Tip: if their head is narrower than the distance between the horizontal lines of the crosshair, they are over 100m away and thus out of headshot range. If it is bigger that that gap, you can get a headshot kill (give or take 5 meters). This 100m measurement is true for all Deadeye sights but relevant here due to the 95m effective range.

[@Rob_Kankerboef]

headshot him anyway, just to flex

[@Mattastrophic1]

If it's a player with a Nitro and double Dolch, then headshots are easier because the ego trip they are on has made their head hitbox is 2x its normal size.

[@Verbose_Mode]

@@Rob_Kankerboef - I mean. of course, but it waiting that extra ten seconds while they run toward you unaware brings them from "will do 99% damage and leave them sprinting for cover" to "laid out on their back" it's a pretty handy measurement.

As someone who likes to sneak into mid range and likes being able to keep firing, this gun has always been awesome for me. That said, the pain of not killing with a headshot is very real.

[@HomeReel]

its a real pea shooter, thats for sure. Fun to use but a lot of drawbacks

[@spoof6023]

No. Anything with a deadeye scope is not a sniper it's a mid range skirmishing tool. This one excels at being an aimpunch machine and it's whole variant line is basically cowboy dmr.

[@algorithmgeneratedanimegir1286]

Dude what are you talking about. There is no skirmishing in Hunt Showdown.

[@Pandamonium128]

While I love the standard carbine, I can just never find an excuse to take this thing into a match. I just feel like the vetterli deadeye fills the same role but does a better job of it as that sort of pseudo-sniper that can also spam a bit. I think the other problem is that the carbine's irons are just so clean and nice to use, it often seems harder to hit long range shots with the deadeye. It's definitely as rewarding as it is incredibly frustrating to use at times, and that might make it worth it for some people.

[@SirNoxasKrad]

this. I loved the carbine pre and post-nerf, but the deadeye? why the hell would you take that when the regular version has such nice sights already?

[@Pandamonium128]

@eanfran yeah I really like the deadeye scope on the vetterli but it just doesn’t click for me with the carbine. Maybe I should give it a second chance and get some proper use with it

[@MRKIKE44]

@eanfran you can still click heads with the regular one, the scope is unnecesary cause the gun is effective at close range, so why the need of scope?

[@midnightbrooklyn8736]

the joke directed at the 1.2% is not going unappreciated and immediately earned my like

[@HomeReel]

[@carlosguzman5400]

God damn Kung Pow is finally getting recognized for its meme potential. I love it.

[@OctoSlender]

Just want to take a moment and appreciate your jokes. Top class, mate.

[@HomeReel]

thanks, never know if they land until Fridays

[@HendorneEndohRoth]

This is definitely one of my favourite guns in Hunt, but that added recoil nerf really sucks.

[@genopurpleboy]

Straight up pointless to run now. It more expensive than the winefeilds and the custom ammo is pointless but ignoring that you can't be aggressive with it anymore because you'll miss every shot because of the recoil. Just use the winefeilds, they are better in everyway now.

[@warpony123]

@notpc6981 idk the deadeye is hard to use especially since it can take 4-5 shots to kill especially if you dont land a headshot. velocity is slow and if you add HV the recoil is bad even with steady aim. Im a 2+KD players who also plays a bunch of other FPS with recoil and bullet lead. its just not good, well the scope version that is.

[@siga241]

If id have fanning on my hunter , i'd always take the nagant silencer as a secondary, because that loadout is actually really good at mid and close range. I REALLY liked the jokes and references today, are they getting more? I think it suits the kind of weapons you talk about very well, great work

[@HomeReel]

thanks! i think this one has the most and its my favorite because of it

[@ongabonga4378]

Fanning fmj scottfield secondary 🙂

[@shnorkeythefourth4572]

My cheap load out is Romero talon and silenced nagant, with fanning it covers all my midrange around a compound

[@crazylasagna3576]

I think you’re undervaluing the officer carbine. That thing can be utterly nutty. Also, never bring poison ammo, it significantly reduces your two tap potential. This goes doubly for the officer pistol since you completely lose two taps.

[@Touchmeh2]

This has become my favorite video by you, simply based on the kung pow references alone. That and I like the OCD myself when I just wanna have some fun

[@maxtized5422]

One of my favorite guns in the game - especially as a starter. Not a lot of traits needed to be usable and good for close up and mid range fights. I take a chain pistol with it -more for the ammo pool and as a last resort.

[@maxtized5422]

Edit 4 times. My English is sh*t today

[@Ehksoduss]

So, I tried this weapon a bit after this video (even got the mastery in a few days), and I must say, it's amazing. As another comment already said, it being viable at a lot of ranges is really what makes it stand out. I usually also don't like scoped weapons, but here the scope is somehow a bit nicer than on other ones. And yeah, while I don't use spamming on range, up close no scope spamming and seeing the two killing shots hit is just incredibly satisfying

[@goblinsandgators5811]

I swear kung pao never gets old. It kills me everytime. "If you have an ass I'll kick it!'

[@phrikaphrak40k]

Ah, my favorite gun in hunt. A gentleman's weapon really, viable at all ranges (besides 100m+), and beautiful to look at. Not overpowered or overcosted either. Really a great parallel to the old CoD: Modern Warfare Dragunov.

[@codexnecrogeddon]

100m+ is pretty much any fight outside of a compound, though... Soft headshots are enough to make me buy a Vetterli

[@TheArk485]

Fuckin' great summary of what this stupid sometimes good gun is capable of. Love these guides. Now to binge the rest of your stuff.

[@macminshew3247]

Love the Kung Pao references! Cool video too, officer deadeye is fun to use in a world full of long ammo.

[@PracticalPotato]

The fact that you bring out the officer pistol to snipe sometimes instead of the officer carbine probably says all you need to know about the officer carbine.

[@jaredbowman7764]

Yeah it is my opinion that the non-carbine nagant officer sights are the best iron sights in the game

[@bigboi5962]

I love taking this thing with the cavalry saber, great weapon.

[@matts.6234]

My favorite loadout is OCD with Saber. Great at medium range below 100 m, and the saber is super deadly in the sub 10 m range. Only thing you have to worry about is long range rifles and hidden shotgun users (both of which seem to be things you should worry about no matter your loadout).

[@GunzABlazinz]

Never expected to see an enter the fist reference! Loved that movie lol.

[@cannenballz]

The fact you referenced Kung POW in your video earned you my sub. Cause I believe “this is good for the both of us” see in the bayou you sexy man

[@UristMcHunter]

Oh man, I love your dry sense of humor and the way you deliver jokes so much. Analytical content is good on it's own, but I think your humor is what makes videos so special and memorable. The "Nigerian prince" joke is just pure gold 😄

I luv this gun. I've gotten shot by an enemy and turned it around with a quick headshot. I've been in the second floor of a building with two teams around and had a match with 7kills. But my favorite was a team wipe. Ambushed the first enemy three pops, to my left my teammate got bomblanced and the dude almost got me but two quick rapid got him before he got me, then to top it off looked up the hill and killed their third with a solid headshot. By far my favorite non meta weapon

"kinda bad but also kinda good" is exactly how I feel about this gun

[@Synebon]

my go-to loadout has been normal nagant officer carbine (non-deadeye) with a saber, can say I have better options at possibly better prices even but it's just so fun

[@jaredbowman7764]

Yes saber rush! Nobody sees it coming! Except when they do and they are camping with a shotty

[@SirMrMoon]

Another side-effect of HV ammo is it gives it a "Normal" recoil pattern. It just goes straight up rather than side to side. So you should probably always bring HV if you have it.

[@scrapinator8910]

Toungie, what a movie that was. Shame Oedekerk never made a sequel.

[@TaxConsumer]

Now this is a decent pick due to the unlimited headshot range

[@PhonesHQ]

Given the significant buff to poison rounds that came out this year with the Serpent Moon event, this gun is worth revisiting.

Tbh I just love how it makes me feel like Artyom from Metro series out in the old west lol I never play it this way though. It really does feel more like a dmr with a short range scope. I actually like to duel and get a kill with two shots, so a headshot is usually a surprise for me anyway lol

[@argentcosmonautmobile5672]

God, Kung Pow was a defining characteristic of my youth.

[@jaredbowman7764]

I love this series of videos (and am looking forward to the next Q and A) because it helps sparse out the strengths and weaknesses of these off meta weapons. As someone who pulls away from meta options in most games do to mental injury getting a clear idea of what guns are good for helps a lot when putting together a load out. Your video on the Martini Henry helped me come around on that rifle and I have been enjoying it immensely.

[@HomeReel]

Glad to help :)

[@kanashi6736]

hey man just wanted to say i love your videos. keep it up. super helpful stuff.

[@HomeReel]

Thanks, Kanashi!

[@TheCanadianSry]

a Kung Pow reference makes a video 100% better

[@raver377]

i personally take any chance i can get to use this gun when im playing with friends, at actuall sniper distances it wont do much but at close to medium range its a god send and when you play with friends its PERFECT to finish of people at sniper ranges when they have already taken hits which is the reason why i rarely take it when playing solo, in my opinion this gun is as close to a support weapon as you can get and if youre a decent marksman i think you will be very happy with the results if you take it out when playing with friends

[@Mrmoocows99]

After watching your Video on the Derringer, it has become a staple in my loadouts, as I get kills with it often, and I thoroughly enjoy an OCD, Fanning Silencer/another Officer, and a Derringer.

[@TheEveryDayC]

dunno, i saw someone using it well and decided to go back to do my officer carbine/cavalry saber loadout cause it's fun as fuck, and decided to bring in the deadeye carbine instead. wound up with 2 team wipes, the first just being 2 frags in 2 seconds with the saber, what the quake 3 arena announcer would call "excellent" and "humiliation", but the second team wipe was two one tap headshots on two poor bastards with that carbine deadeye. both wipes were satisfying as fuck.

[@Ajattaro]

This sounds like a fun loadout! Poison ammo would probably work too for that loadout, although then you gotta pretty much only use saber for killing AI other than immolator

[@TheEveryDayC]

@@Ajattaro Yeah, the saber is the main weapon for AI, so long as you have something blunt like knuckles to deal with the immolators, you should be fine. Whispersmith and Silent Killer are strong traits for the loadout.

[@matts.6234]

@@TheEveryDayC Silent killer with the saber is so satisfying to use, and probably way overpowered. Bows and crossbows are the only other weapons that you can 1 shot kill without making a sound.

[@captain_duck0o084]

Almost no recoil , good sights , fast shooting. What else can you ask for?

[@Batton]

It doesn't deliver enough imo for a 3 slot weapon, and the ammo reserve is too low compared to a winfield

[@genopurpleboy]

It's a chore to use and honestly you are actively putting yourself at a disadvantage using the gun. Low ammo and long reload, terrible recoil, low damage at range, fire rate bursts hurt when looking for a follow up. The only thing that it has is damn near no sway so your first shot is golden.

[@Konggary1]

I use the scottfield with FMJ as secondary for better midrange followup shots

[@jaredbowman7764]

Props for hitting those shots a 250 mps

[@vincetrujillojr510]

Officer carbine is large slot, Nagant precision is medium slot.

[@beanosbean803]

Nagant precision costs like 30 hunt dollars too as opposed to 200 on the officer carbine
