Real-World Background: John Moses Browning was one of the greatest gun makers and inventors of all time, and it'd take you over a day to count all the US patents he had. With guns, of course, come the bullets, and he had a hand in crafting those too, in particular the .50 BMG.To make things clear, lets compare the .50 BMG to an expression, the elephant gun. The first elephant-killing round was the .450 NE, and that had around 5k ft-lbs of force. The .50 BMG had almost three times that amount of energy. The round, though, was originally designed for his heavy machine gun, the M2, but gun makers saw more than that in its ballistics testings. Eventually someone had the gal to put a sniper rifle around the cartridge and make it man-portable, Ronnie Barrett. His M82 rifle made the enormous power of the .50 BMG tamable by one man, and what feel out of that was an amazing anti-material rifle that has found wide use with the US Military today. The M95 furthers that ideology of making the cartridge manageable by using a bull-pup configuration. Now you have the same 'Big 50' force but in a smaller package.

Notes for Usage: Tired of the bullet drop you have to deal with for other snipers, or got a whole bunch of walls blocking your targets? Use the M95. The highest damage possible, high accuracy, and very low rate of fire. The scope will work seamlessly with the rifle and has user-friendly mil dots. The clip is quite small but sustained fire isn't exactly the role of this weapon. Take care with each shot, careless 'grouping' won't guarantee a kill, and reloading will take forever once you run out.

Optics: The scope is the ideal optic for how this gun function and there can't be found good use for the other ones. RDS might make the gun fun but it certainly isn't very effective. ACOG makes for an imprecise reticle and doesn't fit the stand-off range this rifle should really have.

Prime Environment: Wide-Open to Jungle (Example: Base 1 on Arica Harbor)
