[RETURN] - Weapon Suggestion: AI-AWM Sniper Rifle
'''NOTICE: This is only a suggestion and is not even considered to be completely official. It is unlikely that a Weapon such as this will likely even be in the game at all. TL;DR is NOW included in this discussion!'''

Alright, another weapon suggestion is now ready for presentation - a few more may come eventually, but for now, this is what I got currently. For this weapon will be the AI-AWM Sniper Rifle - an phased out version of the AXMC since 2012. Ahem, so without any further words, read on to see what else I brought up this time!

Summary
The The Accuracy International AWM (Arctic Warfare Magnum or AI-Arctic Warfare Magnum), known formally as the Barrett M82, is a bolt-action sniper rifle that is viewed most similarly towards the Barrett 50 Cal. from it's bolt-action mechanics. While the model's outdated firepower and slow reload speed is indefinitely questioned - differentiating with the Remington 700 & Barrett 50 Cal., it make's up for having drastically long rang and reliable ammo count.

Arguably, this is a excellent weapon from taking out an enemy from a very long distance and changes any situation when going against Survivors - But reloading delays would be most present as it is noticeably slower than the Barrett 50 Cal..

Despite the claims, this weapon is best used to supply support. This should be used to take down more dangerous targets before they're able to close the gap on other survivors.

Background Story
Considering that many weapon arsenals are distributed with vigorous success, R-Brain Hardwork has never failed to notice that the range on some of their latest developments are becoming rather concerning. While weapons such as the Barrett 50 Cal. remain successful to this day, the Rifle Rounds were mean't to inflict serious blows - not overall range for what a Sniper should operate as such. As an experiment, R-Brain Hardworkhas sent a party to find a new Sniper Model - for which they would go straight to work.

Cutting off a few materials for cheaper production and improving the .338 Lapua Magnum bullet's wind resistance and supersonic range during tests at the shooting range. Succeeding the Barrett 50 Cal.'s range by a few yards more - yet with obvious hindering in it's firepower, heavier weight, altered Accuracy and Reload times - they slapped an extra magazine to make up for the alterations, while the side attachments are purchase-able as separate pieces.

Survivor's still say this yet another prime example of the company's marketing schemes.

Additional Information
Reduced Walkspeed: When equipped, the user's movement speed is reduced by -3 Walkspeed.

HOWEVER, the user is capable to run with it unlike the Minigun & M249!

Tips

 * The Telescopic Sight adds 100 range and 25 accuracy while providing an easier time in aiming, so you should pick it up as soon as possible.
 * By also purchasing the Lasersight, it adds 25 range and 50 accuracy.
 * The penetration ability is a small perk alike to the Barrett 50 Cal.. Use it whenever you can.
 * As with other long range rifles, it's not recommended to use this weapon constantly in first person.
 * Your situational awareness is greatly lowered and can get you killed.
 * It's recommended to use this weapon on more open maps such as Farmhouse and Last Harvest.
 * Due to the lower damage and delay between shots, this weapon is not recommended for going against a huge horde in close-quarter combat - for which a reliable secondary is strongly recommended.
 * This gun, along with the CK Swat or Mini Uzis, are considered some of the best guns to use on Free For All & Undead Battleground.
 * Headshots would most definitely be needed to kill targets more efficiently - but bullet speed is roughly the same as the Barrett 50 Cal.'s.

Conclusion
And that concludes the Discussion.

But hey, this is only a suggestion! So if it does get accepted, do not take the stats and model listed here as fact - as they are succeptible to change by the owner's decision if it was.

Hopefully you guys like my suggestion!

Feel free to leave a kudo - either by love or liberty - I am not forcing anyone to like my suggestions.
