It seems logic that the crew can fire the at gun and then some bullets with their personal weapon, like mg and infantry AT (panzerfaust & bazooka)do. I saw that some scenarios has this feature and so I wonder why it isn't in the "regular" game. Finally I read that in version 7 the "price" of AT gun was increased, so it would be great to have artillery men that can fire at approaching infantry with their rifles.

Back with v1.0 through about 4.x they did have, some of us complained about a crew served weapon that was able to keep up a terrific rate of fire and still have the crew find time to grab their rifles and fire off a few pot shots as well. The secondary weapons were removed about v4.5. The crew still gets their misc weapons when they abandon, so if you need some local firepower, do an F9 and abandon the gun to use the crew to shoot inf weapons. Then recrew the weapon. It works for me, and I consider it a much better way of working out the fire. thanks, John.
