TURN UP THE VOLUME. LOAD THE BELT. HEAVY METAL DLC IS COMING.

Dear Gunsmiths,


We’re proud to present Heavy Metal DLC — an expansion we’ve been working on for many months, taking on some of the most complex firearm designs in history: machine guns. MG3, M60, PKP Pecheneg, and M249 each feature unique characteristics and intricate mechanics, so it was important to us to recreate them with maximum attention to detail.

Thank you for your patience and support throughout development — and if you want to stay up to date and not miss the release, add Heavy Metal DLC to your Wishlist!

HEAVY METAL DLC CONTENTS:

  • MG3 - A German machine gun with an extremely high rate of fire, derived from the MG42 design. Belt feeding and a roller-locking mechanism make it precise — but demanding.
  • M60 - An American general-purpose machine gun used for decades across various conflicts. Its distinctive design and gas-operated system make it one of the most recognizable support weapons.
  • PKP Pecheneg - A Russian 7.62×54mmR machine gun designed for prolonged sustained fire. A reinforced barrel and a design built for harsh conditions increase its reliability.
  • M249 - A light machine gun used by, among others, NATO forces, belt-fed with 5.56 mm ammunition. It combines mobility with strong firepower, providing versatile support for infantry.

The release date for Heavy Metal DLC will be announced soon.
Stay sharp — we’ll share more details shortly.

Before the DLC launches, we’ll also release a major free update that adds two new guns to the game. We’ll reveal the details in a separate announcement.

Finally, we want to thank you for your trust, support, and all the feedback that helps us keep developing Gunsmith Simulator in the direction you expect. Thanks to you, we can take on more ambitious projects and bring even more demanding designs into the game. If you’d like to support the launch of Heavy Metal DLC, please remember to add it to your Wishlist — it’s real support for us and a clear signal that we’re heading in the right direction.
