Garands are nice - except for how they tell the enemy that you're outta ammo. "PINNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG!" Some of our troops devised a deception. They'd fire a couple shots and toss an empty clip to the ground. When the enemy heard the ping and popped up, we'd shoot them.

Yeah, I know about that... but it’s still not optimal, especially if you’re operating by yourself or in a small team.
Plus - you can’t really top up if there’s a pause in the action.
