So here it is, first from it's line - MAG Weapon Visual Mod. I have started with Precision rifle, as it was ugliest for me. I've took following approach: It is NOT a sniper rifle - it is an DMR suited for asymmetric warfare. Distances in Xeno don't justify scope - but ACOG (Up to 6x) should do well. Another thing is iron sights - in case of ACOG malfunction, they are there - just folded.
Sleek, not bulky - First things first: scaled down in height
Function not look - I've decided to make small modifications which are taken directly from current weapons. Rail attachement system, real scope and real grip. Slightly modded handguard to give a support for static position (Like in W2000 rifle)
Thanks to Ichthyic: Way longer barrel - longer means more rail for projectile to be accelerated. It's better, trust me
Thanks to Gurbo: More gritty and used look - with which I have to agree completly. Even if MAG is a peak of Human-xenos weaponry, at the point we have them, the war is almost over for us. I doubt they worry about chipping on paint when they should be at mission every day.
This is only a visual mod, and only a Precision Rifle for now. No stats are changed, mod loader should work fine with it. And it includes Xenopedia image Ps. For the people who are still not logged in, here is the preview: http://i.imgur.com/kwDGKoY.png
