German sniper rifle?

[steve_06-07]

Will the German Faction have a sniper rifle when they are released? I was looking through the threads and I didn't see one.

[Howitzer]

The Scharfschützengewehr 22 (L118A1)

Its an improved L96A1 , in the same way of the L115A1.

True the G22 is nearly the same like the L96A1 so we use this. Or we use the G82 .50cal Uberweapon

[Maxfragg]

ofcause it won't be the G82
actually the G22 would be a AW Foldingstock, so if anybody wants to moddel it, do it, otherwise i guess it will be a reskinned L96A1

You guys have the Super Magnum version, right?

We use the AWM-F with the 300 WinMag caliber, i do not know if this is called Super Magnum.

To the G82 i suggest having it as a pickup kit .. it is in fact a Barret M107 an as far as i know we already have one in PR.

[hall0]

No i think its not the SM version

Heres what wiki says

Since 1998 the Bundeswehr fields an AWM-F chambered in .300 Winchester Magnum (7.62 x 67 mm in Bundeswehr nomenclature), with a 3-12x56 SSG telescopic sight made by the German company Zeiss, under the designation of G22 (for Gewehr 22) or Scharfschützengewehr 22 (sniper rifle 22). The German G22 rifles have folding stocks and emergency iron sights. For their G22 rifles the Bundeswehr claims an effective range of 1,100 m.

The German ammunition manufacturer Metallwerk Elisenhütte Nassau (MEN) has specially developed 7.62 x 67 mm ammunition for the G22.

The Carl Zeiss Optronics telescopic sight has a mil-dot reticle and a scale that enables the operator to see the dialled in elevation setting through the rifle scopes ocular. The Bundeswehr 3-12x56 SSG telescopic sight differs somewhat from the further developed 3-12x56 SSG-P telescopic sight depicted in the Zeiss brochure. The Bundeswehr telescopic sight has no parallax setting option and the range scale has a setting range from 0 to 10 instead of 0 to 11 symbolizing the 11.2 milliradian elevation adjustment range shown in the current (2006) Carl Zeiss Optronics 3-12x56 SSG-P telescopic sight brochure.

The Super Magnum is not the M107.
It fires a 300 Winchester magnum round

Note the Pictany rail diffrent to the UK L96
