The Silver Sky

Eh, everyone has one of these now a day, so I thought, what the hell?

I've always wanted a place to keep track of my weapons, so here it is!

Note: I do not have specific numbers for these weapons, to hard for me to count.

[Silver Sky Republican Army]

[Infantry Weapons]
BAR-34A1 (http://the-junkyard.net/images/weapons/halo2/battle_rifle.jpg)
Description: The Silver Sky Military had longed looked for an Assualt Rifle to call it's own, first came the XM-8 7.62mm Assualt Rifle, it worked for a time, but with many nations developing body armor that was capable of stopping multiple 7.62mm hits to the chest it was decided that The Silver Sky Military needed a new Assualt rifle, thus the BAR-34 came into play, after many tests of the weapons the BAR-34 was declared the winner, capable of defeating most body armor at ranges of 300m and unarmored opponets at 600m. The only weakness of the weapon is the recoil (slightly stronger the the M-16)at full-auto accuracy is decreased. The rifle also features a small LCD screen that shows the direction of the magnetic north pole and how many rounds are left. The BAR-34 also includes a universal top rail for the mounting of any kind of scope (Regular, Infrared, Laser) and a bottom universal rail attachment for flashlights or 20mm/40mm Grenade launchers. Standard Silver Sky infantry carry a drum fed 4-shot 40mm grenade launcher

BAR-34A2: The BAR-34A2 is an improvement over the A1 in many ways, the use of case-less ammunition is great improvment over the cased round, it provides a faster burst speed and better accuracy in 3-round burst mode, and it allows 3 extra rounds to be carried in each magazine for the same size and weight. It also has a longer effective range due increased velocity. It will phase the BAR-34A1 out of service in the next few months.

BAR-34A3 Carbine: Basically a Spec-Ops version of the BAR-34A2, same muzzle velocity, range as the A1, though it weighs 1.5lbs lighter then the A1, has a shorter barrel, a 33 round magazine, and a ROF the same as the A2, it's also equipped with a silencer, it's the perfect weapon for your Special Forces or a PDW for your sailors cause of it's compactness and it's perfect blend of stopping power and range.

SMG-10A1 (http://the-junkyard.net/images/weapons/halo2/smg_small.jpg)
Description: The Silver Sky had long been looking for a small SMG similar to the MP-5K to equip it's regular and special forces with. Thus the SMG-10 was developed, it fires 10mm ammo similar to the MP5K/10 and also features a collaspable stock, and the ability to mount any kind of scope. The only difference between the two is that the SMG weighs less and can also carry a 90 round drum magazine.
