Winchester

[Dubieman]

Hello,

Thinking about doing something Vietnam like...

Anybody know where a Winchester Model 70, 30-06 sniper rifle is or if it exists?

Its the precursor to the Remington 700. And shoots much farther than the remington too.  

So if you have any info could you help me out?

Thanks

EDIT: Hmm, if anyone has good suggestions for a Vietnam armor pack and some fixed wing aircraft, I'm all ears. Currently I'm diving through OFPCZ's dungeons full of addons.

And has anyone found that the sebnam M14 has a weird full auto mode?
The JAM counterpart seems more on the mark in how many rounds per second. The sebnam one seems to do single mode like hitting the mouse "fire" button in quick succesion.
Is this a good representation of the M14? The sebnam one.

M14s that i know of are selective fire, at least some are
the civilian version the M1A is semi auto, and i believe the M21 is semi auto only

You may have found this one, but here it is anyway

Its some well made NVA tanks and planes. The tanks are actually good (the sebnam ones were just M60s with different names   ) and it adds a F4 phantom to the west side. Lots of other vechiles aswell.  

Other than that, 'COMBAT!' are making a Sheridon, which could be vietnam era if its in woodland camo

Hmm, the pack is like 27mb.
But I think I found a good M60A1 tank. Seems to fit.

But because I was thinking of basing it off a book or two the guy never saw much of tanks nor knew much about them so I don't think I'll make the player download a bunch of stuff.
But thanks, didn't see it before.

And an F4 Phantom, found some of those, I guessing I don't need the A6 intruder so.

@bigdog632
Selective fire? The M14 I'm talkin about is the regular infantry rifle before the M16. Just the one in Sebnam has kind of a crappy full auto. Since the missions will prolly be more book based, the M14 was the guys saviour to the M16.


And no one has seen a Sniper rifle like I said above?
I found a Winchester 1892 hunter, but its like an elephant rifle or something. ;D
Looks like the Remington is it...

The M14's cyclic rate of fire is about 750 rpm. That makes
it faster then the AK74 firing on full auto at 650 rpm or so.
Does your sebnam one fire faster than the AKs in OFP?
A good rifle, the old M14. Way better than that bag of crap
the M16A1, anyway. In any case, its easy to fix the rate of fire
in OFP weapon addons - just de-pbo it and tweak the config
settings. Sorted.

...and don't bother with sniper rifles. The longest sniper shot
in the Vietnam War was made by Carlos Hathcock of the USMC;
2,500 yards...a one shot kill...with a .50 cal M2 machine gun! LOL?

@Jimpy

the M14 in the sebnam pack fires like

"boom" wait 0.5 "boom" wait 0.5....

so you could easily do it with semi auto. I like how the JAM M14 works but the sound... Dunno about it, its so M16 ish. Then I found another M14 pack, and well its better than the sebnam but the fire rate is not as good as the JAM. Yet the sounds kick ass.

Bah, I don't know what to do there, prolly JAM for a good firing rate.


And if I edited the addon sebnam... 50mb... ahem..... :-\

As for snipers, lucky shot, lets see if he can do that consistently...
But I think the Remington will work ok, I really wanted a Winchester though.... :'( ;D

Can't you just pull a George Lucas? Retexture the Remington with some nicer textures and bam, you got your Winchester.

Then there's allways the Winchester.

:beat: *Gets Shot* :beat:

[Dubieman]

Wish I knew how to texture...
Hmm, I've got an idea though, maybe it'll work.

Then there's allways the Winchester.

Lol, I'll make sure to include him.... ;D
