Angle the stock. Having it at a 90 degree angle isn't very fun :<

I think he said that it's supposed to be a really small weapon.

Its a sniper rifle by the looks of the concept.

Sniper rifles can be small.

= inaccurate at long range.

.equals("short range sniper rifle");

sounds like an oxymoron :3

"An oxymoron" doesn't make the same sounds as "short range sniper rifle"

By shorter range, I mean at around 5x zoom. Since I'll probably be the one tagging it, I already know how I'm going to set it up. It's going to be more like a long range battle rifle.

i think by him saying that it goes into the gun, maybe he means it recoils into the gun, like the tank cannons or artillery cannons, cause if it does that actually be pretty cool, :P

Is the extractor supposed to be lined up with the reciever? From that shot it looks like it's ''Magic bulletting'' where the receiver is not lined up with the barrel. That could eventually be a problem in real life but I guess it doesn't matter much in Halo for people that don't know much about guns. Anyway, it's up to you to move it up a little bit to make it accurate

this might just be me, but wouldnt a "short range sniper rifle" just be a rifle?
/me raises eyebrow

Precisely. Just, how many semi-automatic rifles other than sniper rifles, and the battle rifle, are in Halo?

its not "short-range" sniper, its a normal sniper, sopmod with a built in silencer, the gun wouldnt be short range because its still gas operated just like the original.

An assault rifle is gas operated, it has short-medium range. And this sniper rifle has a fairly short barrel. Along with the silencer, it would more inaccurate.

well when the model is finished ill do some touch-ups, just to make everyone happy.

baron shotgun, about 6k, still need to clean it up a bit more maybe add more stuff. banana clip, small reflex sight. pump. comments?
and i know trigger is missing and where it gos is sealed, gotta fix that

Fix the rails that the sight is attached to. Fix your poly distribution, whats with all those polys on that thing in the center, and on the grip?

gas operated has little to do with range fyi. all gas operated means is that the gun makes use of the gasses that are generated from the gunpowder explosion inside the casing to propel the round faster and to cycle the next bullet into the chamber.

for example, i have a 12 gauge semi automatic shotgun. its gas powered

Also, those rounds seem fairly small for a sniper rifle.

sniper rifles can fire anything. .22, 7.62mm (halo 1 assault rifle) or something big like .50 caliber

i said i gotta clean it up, and i over did it on the center thing, i ahve to redo it. and u mean back grip, ya i said i gotta fix a few things

Then make the barrel larger for god's sake :V

I want my portable sniper rifle though :(

And fix the bullet line!

here, we will extend the barrel. thar. ooo n xel, if you finish n go on xfire, i haz a little suprise...

You need to render a side view, we can't tell proportions well from this perspective.

Use this as a reference:

Things that need major fixing, are the space where the trigger is (you can't possibly fit a finger in there!), the shape of the handle (putting a hand and trying to not make it clip so much may even be a challenge to me), and the lengths and width of the mag should be adjusted a bit so it's more like a mag and not so skinny. Right now it looks like it'd be hard to grasp it with a Spartan's large fingers/hand.

Yes, it looks too small for a hand

i am pwnage

Looks too tall. Make it a bit shorter, and wider.

& that post is an hour old now

Those rails wont work. Real picitanny rails follow these dimensions.



Notice the shape difference

the rails are there for style nuthin else... lol
n i really dont understand the crap that was on the image lol!

It shows length, width, height, spacing, and angles.

Why do you have them if it doesn't do anything :V

to make it look cool
