This would save you guys time in the long run, and make things much easier to do animation and its ingame already[R-DEV]Chuc wrote:Nice work so far, but don't put in too much time into the components we have already like the M203, of which you can take off our current models when the time comes.




Type64 M84 2.2x Scope with leather cheek-padding on the stock and bipod deployed. for Designated MarksmanDesignated marksman version
Long range optics (scopes) can be installed on the Type-64 rifle so it can be deployed as a sniper rifle. Issuing a Type 64 sniper rifle is usually granted to the individual with the most accurate shooting proficiency in each division (a designated marksman). However, in many cases the individual may simply be issued the scope by itself to be used only during training exercises and shooting competitions, while no specific rifle is assigned to the individual himself.
The issued optics are usually set at 2.2x magnification and may either be a surplus M1C/D sniper rifle M84 scope used by the U.S. Military during World War II or a similar model produced by Nikon that replicates the M84’s magnification levels. Performance is similar to the M1C/D sniper rifle but it is only possible to set the scope to view targets at 500 meters despite the elevation knob being labeled for up to 800 meters. In addition to this, the standard aiming reticle is a simple black “T” which makes it extremely difficult to use during twilight hours or on a black target.
Some serious complaints about the accuracy of the sniper version are linked to the poorly conceived attachment system for the scope. The scope goes askew easily because it is only affixed with one screw. After the scope is mounted and the rifle is zeroed, it is imperative that it be handled carefully because it is easily jostled. Furthermore, since the scope is not usually assigned to any particular rifle it is often difficult to keep it static on any particular rifle’s receiver. This is usually corrected by installing a piece of cloth between the receiver and scope mount, but then the iron sights of the rifle are obscured. In cases like this, it is necessary to install a cheek pad to properly align the users eye with the scope.
This system is in the process of being phased out in front line units of the Ground Self-Defense Force and is being replaced with the Remington M24 sniper rifle.
