British Troops DLC released & Official 1.01 Update

[STALKERGB 6]

sick new weapon? its just an SR25 (or an AR10 for that matter). those bitches is old! new weapon, LOL

I believe its a version of the LMT 7.62 MRP designated as the L129A1, I dunno the history of the weapon but I guess its something similar to the SR25 probably taking the AR10 as a base to work up from.

[Staff Sergeant Bush 10]

the L129A1 is based of the HK 416 as used by the yanks.the barell has been lengthed and a different front receiver and stock and 6x ACOG scope added.if my memory serves me right.

[da12thMonkey 1943]

Nope, L129 is direct gas impingement to cycle the bolt, like the AR-10 and other derivatives such as SR-25. HK 416/417 use a piston. L129 is at heart and AR-10 using basically the same mechanism and ergonomics, but one built from the ground up for precision shooting.

The impressive thing about it is the monolithic rail and upper-reciever, which is where it differs from things like SR-25. The entire upper half of the gun is machined as one continuous piece of metal (aluminium IIRC) - not something you could do easily until fairly recently, with modern multi-axis milling machines.
