The Army of Lachenburg is in the process of transitioning from the older model Sig550s to a more modern weapon platform. This new KAR-001 certainly interests us and we have a few questions about it:

1. How well does it perform in arctic conditions?
2. What is its maximum effective range?
3. What types of equipment are able to fit on this rifle?

We would greatly appreciate it, if you answered these questions.

Being a small republic, we should only need, at most, 200 000. We can offer $475/ unit. That translates to 95 000 000 USD.

As for the first question, The Compound stock and frame can protect the interior of the weapon from temps ranging from 120 degrees farenheit, to negative 60 degrees. The barrel, bolt and reciver are crome lined, which protects the parts from freezing. As long as the Gas from the bullet can power the recoil piston, and the trooper can pull the trigger, the gun will fire.

Second question: The Rifles maximum range, which is from the the time the bullet leaves the barrel until the bullet begins to arch downwards is One thousand Three hundred yards. But kill range at maximum, is up to One thousand five hundred yards.

Third: The weapons bayonet mount can be removed to make way for a 40mm gernade launcher, laser sights, or bipod. The Rifle has rail mounts for any size scope, red dot, night vison, infa red etc etc. The Rear of the weapon (stock, reciver and bolt) can be replaced by a Machine gun belt feed, but this is still in testing.
