The M-36 Scarface is a Special Forces Combat Assault Rifle, and comes in two calibers, both the 5.56mm and the 7.62mm. The M-36 is more resistant to fine sand, dust, and other things that may find their way into the reciever than the M16, and all weapons that use its ejection/bolt system.

The M-36 has quick detachable barrels, which help switch from various configurations (such as that from a Sniper to a Carbine, etc.).

The M-36 also has single and automatic firing modes. The reason for it not having burst fire is due to the fact that it is made specifically for Special Forces Operators, where usually single fire is used anyway.

Sighting equipment, including telescopes, night vision, infared sights, etc., can be fitted onto the mounts. The M-36 does not feature a grenade launcher or a bayonet mount. It features a silencer as a standard add on, that comes with every rifle.

An impressive weapon, but we prefer the AN-94 for our Special Forces needs.

That is your choice, but the M-36 can easily own the AN-94.

Nice rifle. What'll production rights for both the 5.56 and the 7.62 cost?

Nice rifle. What'll production rights for both the 5.56 and the 7.62 cost?

Being that the nation of Layarteb has served Witzgall well with good intentions and actions in the past, we shall sell you production rights. The prices are as follows:

5.56mm = $4,275,000.00
7.62 = $4,800,000.00

That would make the total cost $9,075,000.00.

Confirmed, wired, thank you.

Please, come to us anytime. You are always a welcomed customer, Layarteb.

May I enquire how much the Production rights would cost for wwa ?

Thank you.

This rifle has been newly designated the M37 Special Assault Carbine (SAC) and is going to serve with both SWAT and military forces in the police and ILM.

NS truly has gone into a dark age of rifle design

NS truly has gone into a dark age of rifle design

And what does that mean, exactly?

Old rifle designs were so new and full of life and new ideas. The rifle industry in NS hit its peak when New Empire designed they're infantry weaponry. Now were back to old ideas, even the old rifle caliburs.

Ok....you mean "Modern Tech"? I've never seen a New Empire weapon design, not for small arms at least...

And old rifle calibers meaning.....the current ones?

Old calibers? Both the 5.56 x 45mm and 7.62 x 51mm are NATO rounds that aren't old. The .30-06 would be an old round. Also it is fielded for the 7.62 x 39mm which is the Russian round. When in combat, this provides excellent availabilty if the enemy has AK-47s. Additionally, this design is very new (introduced late 2003).

New Empire didn't publicize them very much, but he did have them posted on his site, im not sure if they're still there now.

And yes i mean the current rifle rounds, previously they were scraped by most nations in favor of better caliburs.

Well we all want the 6.8 x 47mm Remington SPC round but too many people still use the NATO rounds so...

The 5.56mm and 7.62mm are cheaper to manufacture, and are more common in the battlefield.

Part of me wants to agree with you. The other part of me says, if it aint broke, dont fix it...however I do have to say this...from now folks....PHOTOSHOP IS NOT YOUR FRIEND WHEN DESIGNING WEAPONS...that, along with 90% of the home made deisgns, is the ugliest thing I have ever seen.

The only thing about that is photoshopped is the suppressor (an M4 one copied and pasted).

Agreed, it's just an FN SCAR with a much-too-small scilencer on the end...

Also, I've found photoshop(or simillar) can be your best friend when designing weapons.... as long as you remeber the finishing touches you can make much more realistic looking weapons than most of the other means.

I was working on the silencer, but it just didn't "fit" when expanded. So I opted for a smaller one, which (although it doesn't provide the best accoustic suppression) still helps maintain stealth.

Everyone's a critic...I'd like to see some of the critics design better...

So would I.

Actually I think the suppressor isn't that bad on it. Sure it could probably be touched up but nothing I would lose sleep over or criticize.

I dont need to design anything better, because one of the best designs already exists. While my main military force uses FT (you really need to to stay competitive anymore, we use Halo Tech right now, but since EVERYONE is using it, I'm about to switch to Kill Zone tech), my spec forces (which I actually RP with, as apposed to troop movements and what not) simply used a locally produced, modular M4 known as the CAR-48. Its rechambered in the Remington 6.8x47, and is not only a funtional weapon, but a good looking one. Some examples:

CAR-48 used by Naval Special Tactics and Warefare (My version of the SEALs) (http://www.boomarms.com/collector/SIR/1.jpg)

CAR-48 used by 22nd Special Operations Task Force (My Rangers) (http://www.boomarms.com/collector/OLKA/870_203/1.jpg)

CAR-48 used by ICMC 69th Special Combat Operations Unit (The Fighting 69th, My Counter Insurgency, Counter Revolutionary, CQB specialty teams [SAS, CAG, NSWC, what have you]) (http://www.boomarms.com/collector/JAC_MRE/1.jpg)

and my personal favorite...

CAR-68 (Custom Verson of the CAR-48) used only by ICMC Marine Combat Recon (General mix of SAS and Force Recon, best of the best, they do everything, and they do it well...) (http://www.boomarms.com/collector/M4Custom/M4Custom.html)

AND, in the true spirit of the uber-capitalist Imitora...You can get your CAR-48 today for only $650 USTD (Universal Standard Trade Dollars)! That $650 gets you a rifle, sling, reflex scope, ten magazines of 6.8x47mm (In your choice of BTHP, JHP, FMJ, or LTL) cleaning kit, and instruction booklet! Kill your enemies dead with the CAR-48! Serving Imitoran Special Operations Forces since 2002!

I like cheese

WOW! Spam and idiocy!

Also, the 6.8mm round that everyone looooovvves so much isn't that fantastic. And, when you run low on ammo, your enemy won't have any! Unlike the 5.56mm interchangeable with an M16 or Colt Commando mag.

Why isn't it so great? Velocity and accuracy of a 5.56 witht the stopping power of the 7.62? Sounds good to me. And you'd be suprised how very few MAGAZINES are interchangeable. For example, you can't slap in the 5.56 mag from say, a HK G36 or SIG 550 into an Armalite round. And the AK-47 mag will only wok with AK-47s or rifles that have a reciever milled to it. Especially becuase they use that odd ass round (why can't the russkies be like the rest of the world and use 7.62 NATO or 5.56 like everone else?). The round may be interchangable, but have you ever tried hand loading some of these magazines? Its not an easy task, especially a double stack magazine, or curved mag (I.E. AK Mag)

And, if your good, you don't need to pick up ammo in the field, becuase you'll control the logistics side of things.
