Type 39 Sniper Rifle



The Type 39 is a bulky weapon, designed to be carried by dedicated sniper-teams, to pick off enemy commanders, sowing panic and discord among the enemy ranks. Unlike the Type 34, it has been designed for accuracy from the ground up. Designed to deliver a one-shot kill, the Type 39 has been chambered for the same 14.7mm cartridge fired by the Type 45 heavy machine-gun. The heavy barrel is free-floating, like an artillery piece, keeping greater accuracy after every shot. The barrel with its heavy muzzle break and flash hider is shrouded in the cruciform shape of the four electromagnetic rails that hurl the projectiles. The weapon is braced upon a heavy bipod, with a 12x scope mounted on the top.
