@design_RG What makes this one special?
@freemo It's a famous Sniper rifle, and has great reputation, afaik.
I am that kind of guy, the lone wolf, think the stories of sniper actions are very interesting.
@design_RG I can see that. The guns I picked are not really for accuracy and wouldnt really suit a sniper. Its more the battleaxw or two handed swords of weapons :)
Chances are if i wanted as sniper style gun it would be a single shot.
@freemo Some sniper rifles are bolt-action, you don't need rapid reload -- but a quiet mechanism.
Single shot would be risky, reloading too slow.
This was posted as a pure, non practical suggestion, just a beautiful piece.
If I could get a personal arm, it would be something more practical, like a medium sized Sig Sauer 9mm pistol. Found one in PA during a bike trip and loved it -- would be a nice one to pack on tour. :)

Fit my hands perfectly, the Beretta 9 I had many years ago was just too bulky.
@design_RG Well I doubt id ever use a sniper rifle to actually snipe people.. just as I dont think I'd user a Desert Tech to take down a plane or tank.
In my mind the point of a sniper rifle is mostly the fun and sport of markesmanship, hitting a target at distance. The reason for bolt action is generally less recoil and more accuracy.
The Desert Tech I'd use to put craters in chunks of metal and well, because things go boom is fun :)
@design_RG ever heard of White death?
@DinkaChica @freemo No, what is it? Picture?
@design_RG a Finnish sniper with most recorded kills in a major war.
@design_RG @freemo This guy! I don't know too much about him, but his record seems really cool
@design_RG can't argue with that, looks legit :)
