We need to start a petition or something cuz I miss that gun...a lot.

Hearing it fired would cause a bit of panic for me. Knowing that I could be 1 shotted if hit center mass yet still have a chance to live if it only hit one of my extremities.

At the same time, it was nice knowing that it was a bolt action, and I could have a little time to run between shots.

And it was 5 shots per mag so I knew when I could sprint for more cover between reloads.

That was the perfect DayZ end game sniper rifle.

WE NEED THIS GUN BACK!!

SEAWEED BRING HER BACK HOME WHERE SHE BELONGS!!!

inb4 'we can do it with client downloads'

i should slip one of the mod devs $20 for them to unban it....u know what? why the fuk ban it in the first place?

https://dev-heaven.net/issues/70653 I never heard shit back

The reasons for banning it may be more complicated than just "we got rid of that gun" I'm not sure if to ban a single weapon you have to remove a whole grouping of them. Which would explain for instance how its always been possible to have an AS50 Thermal in DayZ mod...

yeah, you would think that when stuff is banned, you could just click an "unban button" on the private server settings :/ ( Im sure everything about a private server is more complicated than just pressing a button, but my simple mind likes to try to simplify things to keep my brain from exploding)

The process of doing it is real simple, its just that it's in a file that runs from your PC that I can't touch without making everyone download my own mod

i loved this rifle also, when i first joined we had 6 in a tent. Good times. I do think we need one end game sniper that scares the shit out of people.

Mk17 Sniper is pretty awesome endgame atm.
Fully automatic.
Quiet.
Zeroable to 800m.
Looks sexy.
I've only seen 2.

Doesnt scare the shit out of people though.

to be fair, the DMR/mk17 sniper are pretty endgame, at least the bolt actions are pretty much usless up close, you can just spray with the DMR and im assuming the mk17 as well (if only you could disable crosshairs for specific guns).... your bound to hit someone a couple of times (only person that doesn't seem to do this with a DMR is omen )
