Very nice - why don't you bundle your M99 in this pack too?

The only thing I'm a little dubious about is the SVD scope for the M82...

[JJonth Cheeky Monkey 1]

I didn't think that the M99 is of any use any more. Also it does not look as good. I am also not too keen on the SVD scope, but I will change it soon, so expect it in the next release.

I believe it was the South African made NTW-20 sniper rifle as I remember them saying it was a 20mm sniper rifle or at least the ammunition they were using looked like 20mm rounds.   Here's a pic:

Jeez, 20mm's!!

[Major Fubar 0]

There's also this baby:

RT-20 Antimateriel Sniper Rifle (Croatia)

Caliber: 20x110mm Hispano

Operation: manual operated, bolt action

Barrel: 920 mm

Weight: 19.2 kg with scope and bipod

Length: 1330 mm

Feed Mechanism: single shot, manual loading

Maximum effective range: about 1800 meters

The RT-20 was developed in the Croatia in the mid-1990s as a pure anti-materiel and anti-armor rifle. The RT-20 name means "Rucni Top, 20mm", that is "Hand Canon, 20mm". It is one of the most powerful anti-materiel rifles fielded by any army in the world today - the only others design roughly comparable to this monster in the terms of the caliber and effectiveness are the South-African NTW-20 rifle and the Finnish Helenius APH-20 (will be posted at this site later). The RT-20 had been successfully deployed during the war in the former Yugoslavia in the second half of the 1990s. It is manufacture by the Croatian company RH-Alan and is officially adopted by Croatian army.

The RT-20 is built around the very powerful 20mm ammunition, originally developed for Hispano Suiza HS404 anti-aircraft round of WW2 vintage. This ammunition is still used in anti-aircraft guns in some countries for AA guns and generally available in HE (explosive) and AP (anti-armor) loadings, both suitable for anti-material roles. The AP loading also can be successfully used against infantry fighting vehicles and armored personnel carriers. The 20x110mm round fires the 130 gram (2000 grains) projectile at muzzle velocities about 850 meters per second. This results in high terminal effectiveness but also imposes a serious problem of excessive recoil forces. The 20mm Hispano round generates about 4 times more recoil when fired from 20 kg rifle, compared to .50BMG (12.7x99mm) round, fired from 10kg rifle (such as Barrett M95). To make the recoil more or less bearable by the average shooter, the Croatian designers developed a quite interesting counter-recoil system, that uses a reactive principle. The system consist of the large reactive tube, located above the barrel. The forward end of this tube is connected to the barrel at about its middle point. The rear part of the tube forms the reactive nozzle. When gun is fired, some hot powder gases are fed from the barrel to the reactive tube and back, forming a back-blast with reactive force that cats again the recoil forces. The large muzzle brake further helps to decrease the recoil. This reactive system, once popular in large caliber (about 80 - 100 mm and bigger) recoilless rifles, almost never had been used in such relatively small weapons. This system, while effective in counter-recoil, has some disadvantages, First, it requires some special firing techniques for shooter to avoid damage from backblast. Second, due to the same reason, it hardly can be fired in confined spaces like the small building rooms, and the RT-20 cannot be fired with structures, such as walls, in close proximity to the rear.. Third, the backblast can create additional spots for enemy, giving away the position of the rifle.

The rest of the system is relatively simple. The rotating bolt locks the barrel by three massive lugs. RT-20 is a single-shot rifle and thus have no magazine. The shoulder rest and the pistol handle with trigger are located under the barrel, so rifle is obviously a bullpup. The RT-20 has no open sights, instead it had an telescope optical sight, mounted on the barrel and offset to the left.

lol wow

now thats what i mean!

[theavonlady 2]

That gun alone could lead to a revival of Rambo movie sequels!

What am I saying!

[coporal_punishment 0]

But imagine the kickback after shooting the enemy you would be in more pain then the enemy would be.

Yes, but it would hurl you 500 meters back, out of range.

[JJonth Cheeky Monkey 1]

I thought of making that Steyr IWS2000 or the AMR, can't remember witch one.

No, No you wouldnt...

Don't forget this badboy.   If the U.S. Army and Marines aren't deadly enough, this weapon system will give them vastly more lethality.  A handheld semi-automatic 20mm cannon is every infantryman's wet dream (as long as they're not on the receiving end of it.).    

The weapon below is what used to be the OICW. From what I understand the version below is the latest version. The LostBrothers team made a version of the old OICW, but it would be cool to have this one. The 20mm rounds however would have to have lower velocity then the regular bullets as it's a low velocity round and not the same as a 20mm AA round for instance. However it has much better range then the M203 grenade launcher.

No, I think you would - after being hit by a 20mm round, I don't think the target would be feeling anything!

I think thats just a concept drawing, or model. The HK one is the final one. Man you should have seen the early working prototypes, god they were ugly. There is one that looks similar to that model you have shown with the cannon shorter than the rifle.

[JJonth Cheeky Monkey 1]

Anyway i am probably going to make another semi automatic small calibre sniper rifle. .308, .300, whatever. Maybe even a .223 , Sig 550 Sniper thing looks nice.

[Major Fubar 0]

How about an SR-25? Long overdue ingame, IMHO:

it still is ugly. When i join the army i really really really hope they dont use this or atleast the infantry men dont let the crews of tanks use it

An infantryman doesn't care how ugly the weapon looks.  What matters is whether it will save his ass in combat and kick his enemies ass.  The OICW looks like it most definitely will do that.  There's lots of ugly weapons that no infantryman would want to be without.  The MK-19 40mm automatic grenade launcher for example is super ugly, but it is probably the most powerful portable weapon system for an American infantryman.   But if your conserned about how pretty your gun is you won't have to worry about getting one of these as the OICW will be going to mainly special operations forces and recon units and then possibly later replacing the M203 in regular infantry units.  Tankers only need a personal defense weapon that is compact so I imagine they'll stay with the M4 for quite some time.  

Have fun in Basic Training.   Remember not to take too much crap along with you cuz you'll have to run with it and all your basic issue stuff which will be in a big duffel bag.    

Also remember if you can't see the tank driver, he can't see you.  It pays to not stand too close to armored vehicles when the engine is on.  LOTS of VERY VERY nasty accidents happen during training around armored vehicles.  If you've ever seen a human body squashed by tank treads you never forget the sight.  

Anyhoo have fun and pray you don't get radiation poisoning from all that depleted uranium armor and ammunition you'll be around!
