ES M249 Para

- The only machine gun available in the CS arsenal is a weapon to be feared. Two to three shots can take down somebody with body armor in close range. Be fully aware that most of the times, only two types of people would use this weapons, and those are the suicide men and the back up.
- The suicide men are those who know they are the last man standing, and have nothing better to do, so they buy a Para and run around killing anybody in sight. These type of men are the no fear kind of guys, who know suddenly have a sense of knowledge on how much life you have and how to kill you while still keeping alive. It derives from their sense that they have nothing to fear and the ability to keep cool from knowing this. Keep in mind that this tactic might actually work, so if you happen to be in the same position as this fellow, try it out.
- Back up men are different. They go in after someone has already gone in and happen to be fighting the opponent. They tend to be scared and fear a lot. Should they encounter an opponent, they'll spray their shots. Only in packs do these kind of killers work well.
- Be advised, a good way to kill with this is burst-fire. No matter what, do not go full blast unless you happen to be very close to the opponent and also intending to go straight into the enemy base to empty your whole clip on them before they even get out. Even three shot bursts maybe too much to take, as they crosshairs tends to spread a bit to fast to soon.
-Your target has to be the head. That is the only answer to killing someone with this. Take an aim and pop him. Only if the crosshairs are open then you aim at the body or legs. This is more for the medium to long range attack. For the short range, just spray your bullets all over him. No matter what, at close range you are sure to hit him once or twice should you spray all over the place.
- Opponents love to hide behind their little cover to prevent them from getting shot. With this, you have the ability to shoot him from the cover itself, and paste him all over his hiding place.
- Do be careful about when you reload. This thing takes ages to reload, so have your handgun on standby when reloading so that no one catches you by surprise when reloading. It is your call when you want to reload. You have a 100 bullets in your clip, and even if you did go into a fire fight, the most bullets you could've used is 50. 50 is still a lot. even more than most guns. So when you reload is when you think it's good. I reload whenever I find possible. You might want to try that. One bullet can make the difference.
- To end this, I say this gun has to be worth it's money only by the amount of bullets, straight first aim, and the ability to pin your opponents all over the place.
