[Weapon] L115a1 [W.I.P.]

Yesterday I was playing as a british sniper and noticed that the L115 model wasn't as leet as the real .338 beast, so I decided to model another one.

When I finish, I'd be glad if someone could UV/texture it.

WIP, started today.

Happy new year! :grin:

The first batch of SSIP systems was deployed to Afghanistan with members of 16 Air Assault Brigade in May this year with subsequent deliveries being made to training units across the UK.

But this is the near future, and these will be given to more troops.

The Royal Army site says that they use L115A3

L115A3 Long Range Rifle - British Army Website

"Unveiled earlier this year the L115A3 rifle, part of the Sniper System Improvement Programme (SSIP), is a larger calibre weapon which provides state-of-the-art telescopic day and night all-weather sights, increasing a sniper's effective range considerably."

Also, there already is a L115A1, although it might not be a great model, it's there, so if you make a A3, which is coming, more useful IMO.

One thing exec, is that I request you model in bullets in the magazine. Save us the trouble of texturing them in later :)

OK! :D The A3 and A1 are pretty much the same from what I saw. The only differences I've noticed were the cheek pad, bipod and foldable stock.

Yer they use the L115A3 in the Afgahn and Iraq, its a pretty common weapon in the arsenal actually, although you don't see much in the news. But when you see documentaries you usually se them quite often with a squad.
