Notes:
- All of the General Liu's pistols (QSZ-92) have been of special edition manufacture by SIMINCORP (Sinoese Military Industies Corporation), the contractor to the ARSA. The special edition pistols are distinguished by the encrustations of jade on both sides of the handles. The QSZ-92 .45 has dimensions slightly larger than its 9mm cousin.
- The Type 88-II and Type 85-II are weapons redesigned and improved by SIMINCORP but based on their original NORINCO counterparts. The QSZ-92 .45 is of SIMINCORP manufacture.
- Sometimes two pistols are carried instead of four. The silencers are always carried if not screwed on.

Alfredo D'Carlonia, the Prime Minister of the Combined Parliament carries just two weapons: a fountain pen (manufactured in Walmington on Sea, of course), which is always filled with top-quality ink, and a razor sharp tongue. Granted, many say the TSP's leader isn't quite as eloquent as his former mentor, Nicomedo Sabino, but he's quite able to hold his own even against Hiresh Dhawan (CWP) and the Earl of Dirwisham (CON) on the C.C.P.'s floor.
Iansislean Prime Ministers long ago found out that these two simple devices were much more useful in maintaining control over a turbulent legislative body and a fickle public than any number of firearms.

Nuki Fujimora, Chairman of the Naorian Red Army and Administrator of Southern Naori until the upcoming elections, actively fought in the Naorian Civil War. He was hit by a snipers bullet in his right leg, and walked with a cane. He no longer carries a weapon, as with a leg like his, he is no use in battle. That was one of the main reasons he became the NRA's Chairman: every man that could run and carry a gun was needed to fight the Imperial; Naorian forces.

However, for his own security, he carries some weapons like:
-His charming hamster-wife, the duchess Fussyball, who is willing to bite any attacker.
-His horns, like all hell bovines do
-His golden staff, which can be also used as a club.

jiggady keeps a well maintained flintlock pistol in his upper desk drawer, used mostly to deal out punishment when he wants to make a point. The gun belonged to his distant grandfather, Sir Henry Morgan. The brains of several staff members and foriegn ministers have been splattered about his office, the result of his many tirades. He also is quite handy with a cutlace.
Other than that he also carries a Glock 9mm, though it has never been fired. jiggady relies on the skills of his bodyguard who is always at hand to protect him.

Our esteemed leader Kerakh T'havrei is publically known to carry an unimbellished 9mm glock pistol - which is the favourite that it appears to be for good reason - and a cerimonial dagger. An artists' rendition of the latter item may be seen at 'http://www.users.qwest.net/~lhhw/dagger.jpg'. Other weapons may be present, of course, but the Foreign Office is generally not kept appraised of her whims in this matter.
It might be noted that the Heriditary President is routinely less well-armed than the vast majority of Exilian citizens have the option to be.
We do have a question for General Liu or his staff: In battlefield conditions, where armour-piercing rounds are most likely to be used, why does he make use of a kevlar helmet? For that matter, as blunt trauma can easily result from simple handgun bullets fired into one protected by this material (we believe the current international standard allows up to four centimetres of penetration into the body of the wearer, to prevent the armoured vests becoming thick enough to impede motion), is it worth the use in a helmet at all?
It has been interesting exchanging information, and to be hoped that the practice will continue in the future.

Kevlar is more economical than steel, although our troops are also issued with helmets with steel interior. U.S. troops are known to be frequent users of kevlar helmets and body armor. But then again, steel helmets can be pierced even by standard rounds. A soldier's helmet serves more as a function like a workman helmet although the soldier's helmet has potential in allowing the wearer to survive a headshot.

OOC:
Is that F.U.B.A.R. or what?
Am I completely lost here or F.U.B.A.R. is f***** up beyond all recognition?, if so... I don't understand what it means for this case.
IC:
The President of the Community of Bariloche is an amateur sniper practicer, he has a Experimental Sniper Model of the F.M.B.-R.L.A. (Fabricas Militares de Bariloche, Rifle Ligero de Asalto - Bariloche's Military Factory, Light Assault Rifle):
It is chambered for the 7.62x54R rifle sniper cartridge, features a reinforced receiver and robust lengthened barrel.
Characteristics Caliber, 7.62 mm
Cartridge 7.62x54
Length, overal, 1200 mm
Barrel Length, 750 mm
Magazine capacity, 15 rounds
Sighting range, 1500 meters
Weight w/empty magazine, 3000 g
Mode of fire, Semiautomatic / 3-Round-Shoot, switch
F.U.B.A.R stands for f*cked up beyond all recognition/reason/repair.
As for you design of the F.M.B.-R.L.A., that's F.U.B.A.R. too. It resembles more of an assault rifle than a sniper rifle from your description. If it fires up to 1500m, than that't got to be heavier than 3kg (with the mass of the lengthened barrel). I doubt that sniper rifles come in burst fire as it is best to have less of the moving parts to ensure superior accuracy (OOC: call me old fashioned here but bolt action is good enough for a sniper rifle). The Barett M82A1M .50cal ("light fifty") has a mass of 15kg, and it is the only sniper rifle that can reach a range of 1500m.
Is your nation Soviet? Soviets prefer 7.62X54mm over .308 Rem. (7.62X51mm).

Gernomalis' leader, Don Dada Junior Asbentis has a Colt Anaconda, a six shot .44 caliber pistol. It is a custom made piece with a encraved barrel with tribal designs. The gun he uses for protection is a gold plated Desert Eagle .50AE. Engraved on the side is "Swine", the previous owner was a drug dealer who earned that nickname by feeding his victims to pigs.

President Strain of Spyr, not being a military man, carries only a light 6mm pistol, with which his skill rates around average.
Coming from a family of pre-Revolution aristocrats, he also carries a traditional sword, with which he is quite killed, though in these modern times swordplay is rarely a useful combat skill.
The Prime Minister of the Armed Republic of Redhawks has a large collection of weapons, too numerous to list here.
In public appearences, mainly cerimonies and rallies, he has been seen to have:
-Diemaco C7
-Diemaco C8 SFW
-Colt 1911A1 Government
Governor Shak has, integrated with his equipment pack, a revolver mechanism.
Military Head Archanak has, as part of his official combat gear, a assault-rifle mechanism and a one-inch "Shredder" disc gun.
Of course, we all have our teeth. And our claws.
And our near-universal use of fireproof materials has caused some to jump to conclusions...
The Aviean führer, Treize Jäkal, carries a 1909 P-08 Luger, which was his signature weapon back when he the reichsfürer of the Aviean SS. Despite it's age, the gun is still in excellent condition, and with Jäkal's aim (he's a crack shot), he has no need for any other weapon.

Crookfur
07-01-2004, 20:10
King Cameron II of Crookfur is getting on it years and has left his military days behind him. His military service was as is traditional as an officer in the Crookfur Royal Navy (CFRN) where he qualified with the CFAR P1A1 (Browning hipower copy), the service pistol in use during his time where he eventually rose to captain the Vaingloriuos (basically a leander class frigate).
As a keen game hunter the King does make regular use of his custom biult Allenby and Metworth feild rifle (currently used model uses .50 beowulf rounds) and fowling peice (10gauge shotgun).
On ceremonial occasions the Sword of Crookfur (a rahter large and decorative but still functional claymore) is worn.
The royal household does maintain a private armory and weapons museum featuring examples of every type of small arms produced in Crookfur often in both a production version and a special decorative version.
The king's children have all completed or are under taking a term of service with the armed forces and thus are often to be found using thier chosen service arm's weapons of choice.
Princess Aliria D'Hyru uses always her charming and deadly smile...
And about the ShadowPrince....well, he has a room full of all kind of weapons, from Aránruth, the sword of the first king of the Sindar; to advanced Eldar Warp spinners and Aelosian ShadowBolt Battlerifles.

While Director Koshiako is but eight years old he often carries a traditional short sword, though it is hardly expected that he shall have to use it in anger. He is proving quite the skilled martial artist, locked away in the safety of Paegam's forbidden city.
Secretary Hotan meanwhile continues to go unarmed most of the time, also occasioning to carry a Drapoel short sword, and sometimes sitting at a desk containing an 8mm Nambu automatic pistol. It is still rare for the Secretary to be armed inspite of Director Kurosian I's assasination and the attempt on his own life.
During the attack on Hotan three armed Christian capitalists of uncertain origin were killed by a letter-opener to the throat, a broken neck, and a crushed windpipe, while the Secretary suffered multiple bullet wounds.
Erm.. to answer your question, Drapoel leaders are usually unarmed.

President Jewell is never more than an arm's length from his Model 2002 MacLeod. Firing .50 caliber rounds(AP, APHE, HE, and Fletchette), it is a man stopper. An old soldier, he's a deadly shot. He usually also has a modified Bowie knife within reach.
His permanent Body Guard, Marea Bideman however normally wields an automatic magnum shotgun.
It is recorded historical fact, sir. Dra-pol, Beth Gellert, and Quinntonia are all involved enough to confirm it, as if the Secretary's wounds and the three dead bodies are not testimony enough.
Or perhaps you were refuting the unarmed nature of the leadership, in which case one would wonder why Kurosian was beaten to death in China and did not simply shoot his towering attacker.

The Prime Minister of the Li Kam States carrys a concealed SIG P-229 firing custom hollow-point .40 S&W plus 2 mags when necessary. Why doesn't he need an assault rifle? Because accuracy with one of the best pistols in the world coupled with SF training ensures a definite kill zone within 20 metres.
Close protection teams carry the Five-seveN 5.7mm pistol. No more of those 9mm and .45 rounds - fires essentially a shortened 5.56. The HK SMG II for concealed protection, the MP5/10 for medium ranged engagements, and the HK 53 complete with optics for war-zones.
Sniper teams field the Accuracy International AWM Super Magnum firing the .338 Lapua Magnum. Try and out shoot that with any non Swiss rifle in the world!

President Ivan Nagunov carries always his Tokarev TT33 semi-automatic pistol. Even when he's in the bed.

President and First Consul Benedict Michael Sukothai, having been a former infantryman, still keeps his trusty Colt Series 70 M1911A1 on his person from his Army days, as well as a Mk. XIX .50AE Desert Eagle pistol. He also has in his possession an M468 assault rifle, which is an M16 chambered to accept 6.8mm SPC bullets. Like all Syskeyian M16/M4 variants, Sukothai's M16 has been retrofitted with a gas piston system for greater reliability.
Also, Sukothai has kept his officer's field sword, which is a modernized fusion of the Norman knight's sword (http://store6.yimg.com/I/greatsword_1781_18302819) and the Roman gladius (http://www.jelldragon.com/images/specials/roman_gladius_1069.jpg).
And now, for some pics:

A Desert Eagle Pistol much like Sukothai's (except for the fact that his have wooden grips (http://www.magnumresearch.com/products/DEP815.jpg) to match his Colt)

While Directors Joan Covey and Harlen Damien prefer to remain unarmed, Central Director Elliot Schultz has found it necessary to keep a sidearm with him at all times. Due to his significance as a member of the Schultz family who were responsible for the Schultarian Revolution 65 years ago, he has a symbol of both Schultarian pride and its revolutionary spirit.
His weapon of choice is the Al-Kal .45 revolver. This weapon has the particular notoriety of being the only firearm that was ever indigenously designed and produced within Schultaria Prime's borders. The gun has undergone extensive refits to the receiver and grip to suit Elliot's firing style, and a low power night vision scope was installed by personal request.

Prime Minister Lin Pak does not believe in carrying guns; rather, it is a known fact that she tends to carry 5 to 7 two inch bladed stilettos in her sleeve as well a bowie knife in her boot. Her personal guard, former members of Team 2 of SecForce carry AK-74's, supported by Colt 1911.

Unlike most world leaders, President Hiren uses a most unconventional weapon.
THE PEN!
Yes, like any good politician, the pen is his deadliest weapon. With it he can end any life, or change the fate of billions. Indeed, the pen is quite possibly one of the most lethal weapons around.

Hmm... if only you had asked a few months ago, Sino... let me see. My Prime Minister's greatest weapon is his personal bodyguard. Malissa's greatest weapon is her set of rings, several of which have covert weaponry built into them.

Like all proper national leaders, Rene Seingult has people to dispose of other people for her. After all, if leaders had to soil their hands killing inconvenient people they'd never get any work done, certainly?

President Snapcase carries no weapons, as this is why he has a protection service.
Actually, that's just what he tells people. The truth is that he's pathologically incapable of hitting anything more than a meter away, and even then he usually cheats and pistolwhips the target if no one else is looking. The protection service permits him to carry a six-inch length of sharpened string (eight while abroad) for his own peace of mind.
(A Presidential aide rushes in and begins whispering something about sedition)
... uh, yeah, ignore all that, then. :oops: :lol:
And the rumor about his being the only man in the region ever to manage to shoot himself while pointing a pistol away from himself at arm's length? Totally baseless. And it certainly didn't give him a cool scar on his shoulder that he shows to visiting dignitaries who slip him a kzag or two. *whistles innocently*
PM Yun Ren (recently elected) uses her words to deferr any violence aimed to her. (and a wooden billy club with a metal plating at the end of it)

Looks kind of familiar. The Type 95 can be described as a modified French FAMAS with a tactical operation similar to the British SA80.
