An old military sniper model M82A1 Barret. This version was modified to shoot 14mm caliber bullets since .50 became a thing of the past. However, this weapon has a low clip size.
Weight: 5129 grams
Dmg: 25-50
Attack: Single
Range: 43 hexes
Action Points: 6
Min ST: 5
Perk: Penetrate
Magazine: 4
Ammo: 14mm
It can be a BG sniper but theres the LSW already, so small gun! but then theres the sniper rifle but this lacks range but for penetrate perk and more dmg.
Picture came from this dude but we need something with 14mm, since 14mm Pistol is too weak and lacks range in PvP. I was gonna ask sperber to see if he can whoop up anything looking like sniper with 14mm caliber but ehh I forgot

and i think: yes, there is a reason for add other sniper rifle.
actual sniper rifle its a really crap to shoot everyone for example:
Yeah, I know, but still:
20:39:07 • Shaila was hit for 158 hit points.
20:39:08 • You were critically hit in the eyes for 87 hit points, knocked out and blinded.
20:39:09 • You were hit in the eyes for 14 hit points.
20:39:10 • You see BadBoy.
20:39:12 • You were hit in the left arm for 6 hit points.
20:39:15 • You were critically hit in the eyes for 105 hit points, knocked out, blinded and had your armor bypassed.
20:39:17 • You were critically hit in the eyes for 98 hit points, knocked out, blinded and had your armor bypassed.
20:39:21 • You see Wall.
20:39:22 • You see Dresser.
20:39:23 • You were critically hit in the eyes for 55 hit points and were killed.
20:39:23 • You see BadBoy.
20:39:30 • You see Renesco's Pharmacy Sign.
20:39:32 • BadBoy: ...:v...
20:39:36 • Shaila: hi
20:39:38 • BadBoy: ...ko your best friend aijht?...
i remember this fight and was a random lucky effect the ko, he was wearing a bozar so a burst from 40 hexes can b killed me without any problem and i shoot 1 times to the arms (5ap in that case, same as bozar burst both characters with brof i guess) and do
6 damage. more examples like that have thousands, snipers players will now that (not plasma tankers, aren the same)
so we have this one in ew:
A Wattz 2000 Laser Rifle. Uses micro fusion cells for more powerful lasers, and an extended barrel for additional range.
Damage 50 - 60
Single AP: 5, Range: 45
Damage type Laser
Ammo Micro Fusion Cells
Ammo capacity 12 (expanded to 24)
its good, have good damage (bypass the perks toughnes and eventougher) but most of armors used in pvp have good laser dr/th and the ammo lacks of any dr or dm profit.
in bg we have this one:
Damage 22 - 37
Single AP: 5, Range: 45
Burst AP: 6, Range: 35, Rounds: 5
Ammo .223 FMJ
Ammo capacity 30
have good ammo capacity and good ammo too but lacks damage and there isnt a good choice for sniper cause lacks range to stay enough far away from regulars bursts (gatling burst 40 hex, lsw 35, evenger 30, etc all regular weapons nothing t4 like bozar or vindicator)
and finally:
A DKS-501 Sniper Rifle. Excellent long range projectile weapon. Originally .308, this one is chambered in the more common .223 caliber.
Damage 20 - 40
Single AP: 5, Range: 50
Ammo .223 FMJ
Ammo capacity 6
the only good thing its that 50 range. it sucks, 6 ammo capacity? only 3 more than a grenade launcher? initial damage outpot from 20? same as combat shot gun or a xl (both have better ammo and combat shotgun has penetrate perk). so its pretty low the damage u can do with a sniper rifle, if u dont do a single ko u are a dead player.
so my point here is snipers (true snipers, long range and normal damage) need a better weapon to use (no a gauss or bozar cause they are rare) and thats why im asking to re think this 14mm sniper. i suggest :
An old military sniper model M82A1 Barret. This version was modified to shoot 14mm caliber bullets since .50 became a thing of the past.
Weight: 5129 grams
Dmg: 27-50
Attack: Single
Range: 50 hexes
Action Points: 6
Min ST: 5
Perk: Penetrate
Magazine: 10
Ammo: 14mm
cant run when its equipped in any hand (same as m60), gives -90 sneak penalty when u have it in the inventory, 5 str its ok, will drop the chance to hit from 50 hex with 1 str sniper but it will be ok.
