+ | |||
+ | <font style="font-size:15px; color:#990000; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000;"><b>Modified Browning 9-mm Pistol:</b></font> The Browning 9-mm pistol is a personal protection weapon used mainly in close-quarter combat. The pistol is semi-automatic, recoil-operated, and magazine-fed. It is equipped with a magazine safety, an applied safety catch, and fires 9-mm x 19-mm ammunition. The Browning is use by those who require a sidearm that can be rapidly drawn and fired, even in confined spaces. The pistol consists of a barrel, a slide, a breech block, a frame, and normally a 13 round magazine. Rook's 9-mm has been modified to accept a 20 round magazine with quick release/reload mechanism.<br><b>Specs:</b> | ||
+ | *Weight: 1.1 kg | ||
+ | *Length: 19.69 cm | ||
+ | *Muzzle velocity: 350 m/s | ||
+ | *Maximum range of fire: 50 m | ||
+ | *Effective range of fire: 25 m | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | <font style="font-size:15px; color:#990000; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000;"><b>Modified C8A3 Carbine Rifle</b></font> The light-weight C8A3 is air-cooled, gas-operated, and magazine-fed. It can easily be disassembled for inspection and cleaning. The C8A3 is an evolutionary or mid-life program upgrade from the C8 carbine variant. It is equipped with ambidextrous controls, low infrared signature furniture and an extendable butt to better fit personnel wearing protective equipment. The C8A3 can also be fitted with a bayonet for close combat. Its primary sighting system is the holographic sight which is designed for close combat. The holographic sight is supplemented by an adjustable front and backup sight. Much of the furniture has been replaced with composite materials to further reduce the weight. | ||
+ | <b>Specs:</b> | ||
+ | *Weight: 2.8 kg (reduced from standard 4.1 kg) (with full magazine, EO tech sight, sling) | ||
+ | *Sustained rate of fire: 15 rounds per minute | ||
+ | *Maximum rate of fire (semi-automatic): 65 rounds per minute | ||
+ | *Effective range of fire: 300 m | ||
+ | *Maximum range of fire: 2350 m | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | <font style="font-size:15px; color:#990000; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000;"><b>Modified C3A1 Sniper Rifle - 7.62 mm</b></font> The C3A1 sniper rifle can deliver highly accurate fire at a target up to 800 metres away. The variation of the C3A1 that Rook prefers consists of a one-piece McMillan composite stock with an adjustable butt and cheek piece, as well as a handstop with an attached bipod. Rook's C3A1 has been modified to reduce it's weight.<br><b>Specs:</b> | ||
+ | *Weight: 6 Kg (reduced from standard 8 kg) | ||
+ | *Maximum range of fire: 800 m | ||
+ | <br> | ||
+ | <font style="font-size:15px; color:#990000; text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px #000000;"><b>Modified C9A2 Light Machine Gun</b></font> The C9A2 light machine gun (LMG) is primarily used as an infantry support weapon. Equipped with an adjustable bipod, it is normally fired from the prone position and is solely capable of full automatic fire. The C9A2 is air-cooled, gas-operated and equipped with a rotating bolt locking system. Designed with a dual feed system, it fires from a disintegrating link belt of 200 rounds. In emergencies, a 30-round rifle magazine can be used instead. The primary sighting system is an optical sight. The C9A2 has a low infrared signature, a foldable and extendable 4-position butt, a cover with a longer rail mount and adjustable rear sight assembly and a short barrel assembly with folding handle. Rook has again modified this C9A2 to lose a significant amount of weight while retaining it's other specifications. Most if this weight loss has been achieved by use of composite materials. The loss of weight allows Rook to use this weapon more comfortably while on the move. The C9A2 can maintain a high sustained rate-of-fire due to its two interchangeable, quick-change barrels; the disintegrating belt feed system and the open breech firing system, which prevents cook-off. | ||
