I own the real thing, mine hasa folding claspsible stock though, putting a mag pul stock on it to change out the standard m4 style. Lots of other shit already done to it.
On the main screen under the training or whatever menu. But you can't use those load outs in the wasteland we play. Still good for most other things.
Main Menu --> Learn --> Virtual Arsenal Basically lets you try out any gear available in the game (and mods if loaded) and give some comparative stats to work with as well. You can save loadouts and load them in any mission where Virtual Arsenal is available, saving a bunch of time in mission.
That Magpul PRS stock on there is the real steel version...If you want it >.> <.< I just upgraded my primary from the 556 to a M14 EBR, so I've parted it out most of the long range parts and turned the 556 into a rapid fire CQB gun.
My 556 is my main battle rifle and want to keep it lightweight. I'm just debating on keeping it a folding or not so I know which stock to go with. I got a built up DMR with PRS with all the furniture in olive drab. The PRS is a really nice stock for the money. It's a little heavy but not as nearly as the A4 I had to carry in Iraq my second tour. Starting weight was a little under 12lbs. After it was fully loaded up which my company wanted everything on the rifle so we didn't loose anything it jumped to around 17lbs or so. After I wanted to keep my personal weapons as light as possible.
With these marksman rifles are they calculating for the rifles center of gravity. I'm just wondering because on these rifles you tend to put more things on the rifle then a usual sniper rifle and are a bit longer then your battle rifles so anything being added on the rail changes the characteristics a lot more. Just something I wanted to bring up.
Save the date, April 8th!!!!!!!!!!! Fresh from Armaholic: Korneel van 't Land informed us Bohemia Interactive announced the Marksmen DLC for Arma 3 will be released April 8th 2015. The Marksmen DLC brings you seven brand new weapons supported by additional new content and more features! Quote : Prague, Czech Republic, Thursday March 19th 2015 Bohemia Interactive today announced the official release date for the upcoming Arma 3 downloadable content pack, Arma 3 Marksmen. Flexing its guns on April 8th, the Marksmen DLC looks to build upon Arma 3‘s infantry experience by adding new premium weapons, attachments, and gear. Alongside the new DLC, Bohemia Interactive will also release a major platform update, which implements a new multiplayer mode, training courses and showcase scenario, plus several much-anticipated platform features related to weapon handling (#bipods) and sound. Serving as the backbone of the Marksmen DLC are the seven new weapons. Among these are five marksman rifles, namely the Cyrus 9.3 mm, MAR-10 .338, Mk-I EMR 7.62 mm, Mk14 7.62 mm, and ASP-1 Kir. The other two weapons are the SPMG .338 and Navid 9.3 mm medium machine guns. The weapons will be complemented by the AMS and Kahlia medium range scopes. There will also be new ghillie suits for the NATO, CSAT, and AAF factions to provide camouflage for various terrain types. Furthermore, the Marksmen DLC will add two Remote Designators, which can be used to spot and laser designate targets from afar. Those who want to hone their shooting skills can pay a visit to the shooting range for brand new firing drills, or go on a reconnaissance mission in the Marksmen showcase scenario. Overall, the Marksmen DLC aims to redefine what it means to fire a weapon in Arma 3. This idea will be reinforced by a major upcoming platform update, that will be released alongside the Marksmen DLC, and will be free to everyone who owns Arma 3. Besides new playable content and major upgrades to weapon handling, this update will include suppressor and bipod weapon attachments, as well as nine new types of face paint, and three new heavy and grenadier vests designed specifically for improved explosive shielding and ballistic protection. In terms of playable content, the aforementioned platform update will deliver a brand new multiplayer mode called End Game. Here, two teams compete to locate and secure valuable schematics. On top of this new multiplayer mode, the update will also include the Firing From Vehicles showcase scenario, as well as new VR training courses, objects for content creators, and a brand new set of Steam achievements. With regards to platform features, the upcoming Arma 3 update will introduce weapon resting and weapon deployment - which have been on the list of most requested features by the Arma 3 community. Weapon resting means that players will benefit from an accuracy bonus whenever they are near a stable surface, while weapon deployment will enable players to use bipods for a more steady shot. Together with improvements made to the simulation of recoil, and improvements to enemy AI suppression, this should provide a more tactical, intuitive, and rich experience to the players of Arma 3. Finally, the new platform update will make significant upgrades to sound by adding more sound samples and new sound technology. These improvements should enhance the immersion and contribute to gameplay by providing players with a better situational awareness. To round out the Marksmen DLC package and the supporting platform update, Bohemia Interactive will be expanding Arma 3’s existing Virtual Arsenal feature with Virtual Garage. This means players will not only be able to preview soldiers, weapons, and gear, and create custom loadouts for their characters, but also examine and customize the extensive collection of vehicles in Arma 3. In addition, the new update will open up Virtual Arsenal so that people will be able to try out all of Arma 3’s premium weapons, vehicles, and other DLC content, without restrictions - even if they do not own the DLC. A more in-depth explanation of Bohemia Interactive’s approach to DLC for Arma 3, and how it prevents a split in the game’s multiplayer community between those who own DLC and those who do not, can be found in the studio's previously released blog. The Arma 3 Marksmen DLC will be available from April 8th for 12.99 EUR/10.99 GBP/15.99 USD onSteam and Store.bistudio.com. People can already purchase the Arma 3 DLC Bundle, which includes the Arma 3 Karts, Arma 3 Helicopters, and the upcoming Marksmen DLC, for 19.99 EUR/16.99 GBP/24.99 USD - saving them more than 25% over buying the DLC packs separately.
