XM307 / XM312

Since you don't see 1vs1 sniper battles in RL, neither in PR (so far, i didn't...maybe marksman vs marksman), squads have no other choice, than calling a chopper, plane or laze them...XM307 or XM312 would come in handy for those situations...Next question is, who will place it? If you add this gun into...let's say, engineer class, then they would be lying all over the map...SO my idea is that they could be placed from supply crates, or there would be a special class ( like only 2 or 3 avaliable, min 5 or 6 squad members)...
XM307 is state of the art automatic grenade launcher, with timed explosion (first you laze the target, microchips set the bullet speed and grenade explodes within 1 meter of lazed distance...well this is probably hardcoed, so it can be used without this hi.tech stuff)
XM312 is same base, just 50 cal convertion of it, which can be made under 3 minutes
you could switch between ammunition types same was as in tanks, the "preparation!" time would be between 2 to 3 mins
EDIT: They could be dropped to the ground and cannot be picked up (like mortars in AIX)
