gibonez 3633 Posted May 30, 2014 Probably a Cz 550. What matters is the caliber hopefully it comes in 30-06 or 300 win mag. Hope it isn't a ww2 rifle because the devs would rape it by giving it bipods and modern optics and make it 7.62x51mm 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OrLoK 16187 Posted May 30, 2014 Hello there There was a mauser in early preview shots, Im going for that then the Lee Enfield. But knowing the dev's capacity for throwing odd stuff at us it could well be a De Lisle Carbine. Rgds LoK 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SFRGaming 718 Posted May 30, 2014 Well the Remington 700 is pretty common around the world. I don't think we will see rifles like that until they start controlling how the loot spawns. Deans wants to limit how many high-powered rifles are present in x amount of servers so every person isn't running around with one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zeroy 240 Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) I assume it could be standard AK or FN FAL, other options don't fit the setting. None of these are bolt action. My money is on a Hunting rifle, remington 700 or Mauser 98K even Edited May 30, 2014 by zeroy99 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

taco86 156 Posted May 30, 2014 Hopefully it's something a bit more "modern". Another ww1/2 era rifle would be a bit silly atm... I'd very much like to see a remington 700, or cz550. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katana67 2907 Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) Yeah, I hope that it's not another WWII bolt. I'm not opposed at all to having a Mauser or SMLE in, I'd just like to see a more modern rifle right now. Hopefully some kind of hunting rifle (perhaps a CZ550, I loved that in the mod) with some dedicated hunting optics. That's probably what's coming down, as most of the weapons have been pretty low-rent. Or, I'd love to see a full-on military sniper rifle (M24/M40, some kinda' AI sniper rifle, or a Sako TRG). But I think a McMillan TAC-300/338 would be my personal choice. Simple, modern, sleek, can sort of pass as both a "military" and "civilian" rifle. I think we're in serious need of "high-end" weapons, especially with both the M4 sucking and helicopter crashes coming down the pipes.

With the accessory system they could add stocks thst marginally increase the accuracy, bottom metal for magazines, custom scope bases such as a 20 moa base for even more elevation adjustments. R700 has pretty much anything you could want when it comes to customization. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathlove 2286 Posted May 30, 2014 Maybe we will finally see them make an M1 Garand http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1_Garand It uses .30 but it still has the strip clip functions like the SKS has. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhillyT 554 Posted May 30, 2014 Seriously though, he said bolt-action. B-o-l-t a-c-t-i-o-n!CZ500 or a Rem 700, but a tiny shameful part of me wants something more milspec and sexy, like a pimped out m24.M24 is just a barely modified 700.That would be a good addition Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Deathlove 2286 Posted May 30, 2014 But it's not bolt action.Oh yeah i forgot! But this is what made it good over allot of bolt action guns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FrostDMG 398 Posted May 30, 2014 Oh yeah i forgot! But this is what made it good over allot of bolt action guns. Lol yeah true, but I think we're gonna get the M14 variants over the Garand tbh. Can't wait for the FAL though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capo 323 Posted May 30, 2014 Reminton 700 would be nice as it's basically an m24 CZ550 would be nice because it's my fav from the mod, hopefully they add in a new scope with a built in rangefinder, and split the current mosin ammo into 7.62x54 mmR and .308 win.

a_ruttle 199 Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) Why is torchia so opposed to different ammo types, make a bloody realistic survival game, the mosins one is likely to find in chernarus would be firing 7.62 x54r *edited to be nice instead of being crass and vulgar* Edited May 30, 2014 by a_ruttle 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chaingunfighter 917 Posted May 30, 2014 I'd like any bolt action that isn't a century old :PCZ-550 isn't that old. It's a newer design than the Mosin.Granted, the CZ-550 is based on the G/K-98 series of rifles, which go back to 1898 with the Gewehr 98, but the Mosin was also designed in the early 1890s, so...
