Musket

Summary
The musket is the gun you receive when you first spawn in if you have joined the Continental Army group. Other guns can be bought at the stores at spawns on either teams.

The musket is truly an all rounder; It is the standard weapon for both teams, and it has a good reason to be so. The musket is usually good for medium ranges, although you can snipe with the musket if you have a little skill. It does a lot of damage, killing enemies with 1 hit to the head or body. It does adequate damage when you shoot an enemy in the leg. Yes, there is bullet drop when using the musket.

Tactics
When using the musket it's best not to just present and go to the enemy as it slows down your walking speed. What you should do is find an area where you can quickly shoot someone than unequip the musket and head somewhere else before reloading so you won't be killed while you reload.

If you are going to use your bayonet, make sure not to charge the enemy if they can fire at you. It's best to simply charge at them while they are reloading and kill them before they can retaliate. However, if they have a melee weapon such as an axe or saber you should not charge at all as there's a very good chance you'll die.

Overall
The community is satisfied with this gun. There are many reasons why a player may not buy other weapons in the game at all. Many players argue that range matters (it does of course), but the musket blows away your problems with a well rounded shot. You can snipe about 200 studs or more with this weapon, making it a perfect gun for any role on the battlefield. The musket is also used for most of the in-game strategies, such as charging a hill, defending a point, or just picking off the enemy team.

All in all, if you want a good, well rounded weapon that won't let you down in Bunker Hill, you can always go with the musket.
