So yeah, this is on the already suggested list, but the most recent threads I've come across are two years old.
There was even a model at one point, but the polygon count was too high and thus it was not introduced into the game.

I was wondering if this awesome rifle is gonna make it into the game at all, be it a SAM-R or SDM-R.

With the added bonus of not being an armashite and covered in tacticool rails.

haha armashite, love it.


Yeah the m14 looks better and is much more widespread.

I looked on the SR-25 as the worst weapon in 0.3.

thanks, pete

Those rails do come in handy mind you. Don't look at the EBR it for the m14's we had over there if you don't like them though....

The EBR is a gorgeous rifle though.

The USMC SAM-R and Army SDM-R are both accurized M16 variants, not SR-25s. However, the USMC and Army have adopted variants of the SR-25, the Mk-11 (also used by USSOCOM) and the XM110 Semi-Automatic Sniping System, respectively. From what I understand, these are intended for the observers in the scout-sniper/sniper teams and in the Marines will eventually phase out their in-house produced M14 DMR. According to some sources the 75th Ranger Regiment has been using SR-25s for their sniper team observers since the early 1990s.

The SR-25 wasn't in .3, it was the Mk-12 SPR.

Since this has been discussed before, I am locking the thread.
