I've been testing it heavily for months in bones server, it is a much-needed improvement for mg to be a viable weapon in default game modes.

MachineGun has seen a lot more usage on bones' server since these changes, and while still not comparable to overpowered weapons it is a significant improvement. Reduced spread is the most significant improvement of these changes, and without it this would not be much of a buff if at all. In future it may be worthwhile increasing the ammo given in Bullets pickups, since the time-to-empty of the MachineGun primary is now only 5 seconds, previously 8 seconds.

Tested on Feris, it makes the MG more pleasant to use.

Tested in duels and CA. Works well and feels fair. Also good integration with weapon comboing system due to spread. Initial spread allows players to reliably finish opponents and deal initial damage at mid range
