Additional Comments: This sniper rifle is built on a highly accurate version of the M14 rifle. The weapon comes equipped with a telescopic sight (Leatherman ART II) and a sionics noise suppressor (silencer). The telescopic sight can be removed and a starlight scope (AN/PVS - 4) attached for use at night.
Dismounting and remounting a scope calls for some skill and that the owner can get to a range and re-zero this rifle. It would be best if the owner of this Rifle was also the primary for the M21 kept in most project vehicles. Setting up one rifle with the passive night vision and the other with the telescopic sight. Thus having a day and night option. It would not be practical for a shooter to trying to switch back and forth with this design.
