No, the UK uses the L96A1 (Accuracy International AW) and the L115A1 (Accuracy International AWM in .338 Lapua Magnum). As I said before, they also use the Barrett M82A1 (not the Parker Hale M82 you posted a photo of) and the AW50F. I read at one point that EOD units had the AW50F and that infantry units had the M82A1, but have not seen confirmation.

Canada recently selected a replacement for their Parker-Hale M82s (C3A1), but I can't find the CASR article to refresh my memory on what it is.

So the brits sniper is the l115a1?

thats what the man said

among others

I suspect that they are McMillians with Lija barrels, that's what was used for the record shot in Afganistan according to Lija's website.

Well, yes, that's their AM/HTI rifle, but their new rifle to replace the C3A1 is a .338 Lapua made by PGW Defence Technologies; Timberwolf Tactical, IIRC.



The McMillan Tac-50s are also in use by the SEALs as the Mk-15, aka McMillan M88 (Product Improved).

Ok guys lets just pick a sniper fir the brits and be done with it. I would like to know what shotguns, Hand guns, And other weapons they have

then ask, dont derail the thread.

We don't really use shotguns, it's more of a "well the other teams use them in game so we need one for balance" sort of thing (at least with our mod).

They've been picked. The UK uses the L96A1 and the L115A1; both will eventually be in Project Reality.

Shotguns are specialized weapons not used in all combat situations. In the UK, they are used primarily by special operations forces (SAS, SBS, Royal Marines Fleet Protection Group) for close-quarters battle, typically as a breacher's weapon. Shotguns are also useful for jungle warfare and the Brunei resident Gurkha battalion sometimes equips men in their sections with them. They also have reportedly been used by the Home Service battalions of the Royal Irish Regiment in Northern Ireland because of their anti-riot/less-lethal capabilities. Models of shotgun used seem to vary.

Handguns: L9A1 (Browning HP-35 Mk 2 or Mk 3) for most troops, L105A1 (SIG-Sauer P226) for special operations. L107A1 [SIG-Sauer P228] has been adopted as well, but not sure of basis of issue.

I meant that people were discussing what sniper rifles will or could be used in game. you seemed a little short with those people and only wanted your questions answered, which is fine, ask. perhaps it didnt derail the thread but it did the discussion. I didnt mean to sound assish though .

hmmm ok well can you tell me all the weapons the brits will use in this mod? Or have you guys not yet desided? Also in the up comming mod. Will you guys mess around with the class. Like hmmm. The class here are for reg map.

Pilot - For map that have planes and helicopters (only class able to fly them)
At - Tank hunters and Tank driver (only class able to drive them) (Able to take other teams tanks also only class that can)
Medic - nothing changes
Assualt - nothing changes
Support - nothing changes
Scout - Only class with smoke gernades and bion only class able to spot anything ect commander
Sniper - nothing changes

Spec ops - Only on spec ops maps can do everything {tanks,planes,heli,spot,smoke)

i think there should be seperate AT and tank drivers, just so when a guy bails from a crippled tank he cant finish off the other with an AT rocket. also them being able to drive enemy tanks wouldnt be great if there are plans to remove tags.

I think assault should get smoke grenades, not just the 'scout' class.

medics need a more realistic way of healing and reviving.


not to mention that the names of the classes need to be changed but thats been brought up before.
