BAR Variants
Foreign variants of the BAR
About this mod Author’s original text
The Browning Automatic Rifle, while mainly associated with the American military of WWI and WWII, came in a wide number of different variants, especially in the interwar years.
- The Browning WZ1928 is a Polish copy of the FN M1924, chambered in 7.92x57mm Mauser.
- The Chinese BAR Conversion is a postwar variant based on the M1930 that uses AKM Magazines.
- The FN DA1 is a postwar variant based on the M1930 that uses FAL Magazines.
- The FN M1930 is a Belgian variant chambered in 7.92x57mm Mauser.
- The KG M/21 is a Swedish variant chambered in 6.5x55mm.
The Polish and Swedish models have a safe-semi-full auto trigger group, whereas the Belgian models have the same safe-slow-fast trigger group as the M1918A2 BAR.
Other variants can be downloaded elsewhere, such as my M1918 BAR WWI, the Colt Monitor by StickySpider, and the HCAR by Muzzle.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
