I was checking items (especially guns) for their attributes and I've noticed that there are barely few guns having "Heavy guns" attribute.
This include BREN or BAR LMGs, MacMilian Tac-50, one of Mossberg 500 shotguns and few more, but not the biggest or heaviest guns (like Browning 1919 LMG or Barrett M82 SR).
There were only 7 "Heavy Guns" at all.

On the other hand none of the Launchers (RPGs, mortars) were Heavy Guns.

I'd like to as about the trait "Heavy Guns" or "Bombardier" - is it working with weapons because if it's size, weight, or maybe some of their attributes (like with all "launchers"?) or maybe it's broken and not working at all?

UPDATE:
I've noticed that in regular v1.13 7987 (not UC) there is no gun with "heavy gun" attribute at all...

UPDATE 2:
I've found some explanation on Headrocks 'how-it-works' section:
If Weapon is a Rocket Launcher, then
Effective Marksmanship is increased by 15 points per level of the HEAVY_WEAPONS skill.


This means that "launchers" are affected by Heavy Weapons trait - am I right?

HW/Bombardier affects all grenade and rocket launchers as well as mortars. The heavy gun tag has some minor influence on your ability to shoot shouldered without any support iirc.

BREN/BAR are Light Machineguns and are influenced by the Auto Weapons trait
Barrett M82 SR is a Sniper Rifle and is influenced by the Marksman/Sniper trait

Thanks for information!

I was thinking that "heavy guns" attribute on weapons is rather unused but it seems it is!
On the other hand I think some more weapons existing in v1.13 should have this tag, I don't really believe that some ingame AT-rifles could be fired shouldered...

Anyway: thanks!
