  • Production: Minor

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
  • Classification: Bolt-Action Heavy Sniper Rifle
  • Size: Large
  • Weight: Average
  • Ammunition Type: Anti-infantry/anti-emplacement slugs
  • Ammunition Capacity: 1 mag/5 rounds (10 in an extended mag)

  • Reload Speed: Slow
  • Effective Range: Extreme
  • Rate of Fire: Very Low
  • Stopping Power: Extreme
  • Recoil: Very High
SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Bolt - Being a bolt-action rifle, each seperate slug is loaded into the magazine by pulling down a bolt and then pulling it backwards. After the rifle fires, the bolt returns to its original position, and it has to be pulled back once again.
Strengths:
  • High Caliber - The LBS has a large, gaping barrel that leaves room for an equally impressive slug. Once it is sent rocketing forward, there is very little that can stop it.
  • Clean Sight - The LBS is very accurate, able to effectively hit a target from nearly a kilometer away.
  • Multipurpose - Anti-infantry and anti-emplacement slugs can both be put inside of an LBS. Anti-infantry slugs excel at slicing through enemy infantry formations, and can easily score multiple kills with a single shot. Anti-emplacement slugs are lethal against harder targets, able to fully penetrate light armored vehicles to rupture their more vulnerable areas.
Weaknesses:
  • Dislocator Of Shoulders - Firing the LBS creates a very large amount of recoil, enough that wearing armor or a shoulder pad is recommended to prevent dislocation.
  • Clunky Reload - The process of inserting a bolt and replacing a clip are both extended and costly activities.
  • Big Boom - Traditional silencers are unable to fit on the LBS's large barrel, restricting its abilities in unseen killing. Additionally, the slug being released from the rifle creates a boom that can be heard from nearly a kilometer away.
DESCRIPTION

The Loaded Ballistics Sniper is Outer Rim Military Engineering's take on a sniper rifle, essentially a high-powered lightning rod.

Using experience from previous rifle and heavy weapon designs, Outer Rim Military Engineering sought to expand its audience by adding sniper weapons to its arsenal. Consequently, the LBS was thought up.

A traditionally powerful bolt-action sniper with high reliability, the LBS was quickly refined and mass-produced. It has multiple different uses, including reconnaissance fire, eliminating high-priority or armored targets, cutting through neatly ordered infantry units, and can even be mounted on a vehicle and used as a heavy weapons emplacement.

Magazines and Clips are completely different things. What you likely mean is 1 Magazine/5 Rounds (10 rounds in an extended Mag) Clips are utility tools to hold cartridges or "rounds" and allow the user to more quickly load rounds into an empty magazine.

The only reason why I think you would have to worry about having a clip, is if you had an Internal magazine. Which from the image, You have an external box or "Banana mag" style magazine.

An example would be this image below.

Overheating - The energy discharged from the slug being fired in the LBS creates a brief but intense heat throughout the majority of the gun. Therefore, wearing gloves is recommended to prevent serious burns.
Not sure how the barrel of a gun could make a majority of the weapon itself become hot. Sure, maybe long bouts of firing this weapon without stop could warp the barrel, but overheating is only a major problem if you are throwing some serious numbers of lead down range. I don't see a need for this weakness to be there.

Sorry for the wait, fixed the magazine vs clip thing and removed overheating from the gun's weaknesses.
