Sith-venator Wavingstrider's Gun Guru Edges!


 * For Long Range the Metal Gears wiki is very poopy about weapons info on the railgun, while for the M99 I know is has a 10 .21 round magazine with a muzzle velocity of 15,000 meters/second (9.3 miles/second) and a range of 4.5 Kilometers. EDGE: Johnson


 * For Sniper Rifles the Sniper Rifle System 99C-S2 AMB Anti-Material uses a 4 14.5x114mm (.57 Caliber) round magazine, has a muzzle velocity of unknown (probably around 1,049 m/s based on modern day .57 Caliber Snipers), a fire rate of semi-automatic, a weight of unknown (probably around 25 Kilograms), a length of 187.5 cm, a barrel length of unknown (probably around 45 inches), and a range of 2,300 meters.

"High velocity, armor-piercing. They'll take the hat off an Elite at two thousand yards. And they ain't cheap." —Jun-A266

The Barrett M82A2 fires the 12.7x99mm (.50 BMG) in a 10 round magazine, has a muzzle velocity of 853 m/s (2,799 ft/s), a fire rate of semi-automatic, a weight of 30.9 lb (14.0 kg), a length of 57 inches (145 cm), a barrel length of 29 inches (73.7 cm), and a range of 1,800 meters.

"Emergency iron sights provided. Nerves of steel are not."-Unknown

Overall I feel the SRS99 is the superior sniper with the larger round, muzzle velocity, barrel length, and range. EDGE: Johnson


 * For Battle Rifles the M392 Designated Marksman Rifle fires the 7.62x51mm in a 15 round magazine, has a muzzle velocity of unknown (probably around 2,800 ft/s), a rate of fire of unknown (probably around 750 RPM), a weight of unknown (probably around 4 Kilograms), a length of 109 centimeters (42.9 inches), a barrel length of unknown (probably around 24 inches), and a range of unknown (probably around 800 meters).

"The single-shot DMR fits somewhere between the sniper rifle and the battle rifle. It's deadly at range, but a quick trigger finger and careful aim assure that even at medium to short distances it packs a punch." —Game Informer

The Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle utilizes a 20 round magazine firing the same 7.62x51mm round as the DMR, has a muzzle velocity of 2,800 f/s (853 m/s), a fire rate of 700-750 RPM, a weight of 11.24 lb (5.1 kg), a length of 35 in (889 mm), a barrel length of 18 inches (457mm), and a range of 800+ meters.

"It's my favorite gun."-Me

Overall I feel that the Mk 14 Mod 0 Enhanced Battle Rifle is the superior weapon due to the fact I'm certain about it's statistics while with the DMR there are to many unknown variables. EDGE: Snake
