(re)Introducing the AR-22 Series of High-Powered Assault Weapons. Designed to take on the class of armored soldier found on today's battle field, all AR-22's are built around the Standard TPM round, ".450 Phoenix" aka ".45 Caliber Rifle" aka "11mm". .450 Phoenix is slightly longer and thinner than the .450 Ackley Magnum which is the only other known true .450 round (.450 Marlin is actually .458)

[[OOC: Please keep OOC comments to the absolute minimum . About the recoil, for anyone who cares, click here (http://www.teppojutsu.com/video/458_SOCOM_Full_Auto.mpeg) to download a 6mb mpeg video of an assault rifle firing .458 SOCOM rounds at full auto, and note that the AR-22's are heavier, and contain much more extensive recoil dampening systems than the rifle shown in the video and has semi-auto and burst fire functions as well ]]

Both cased and caseless versions of the round have been in use since the original AR-22 was adopted years ago and it is a well proven round. Ammo types include hollow point, full metal jacket or teflon coated armor piercing.

The MG-22 was made recently on request from TPM infantry units, who found it cumbersome to carry diffrent ammo for thier assault rifles, m249 saws, m60 machine guns and other weapons. Well the MG-22 uses the same round as the AR-22, and in fact it can take the AR-22's 32 shot clip, not recomended tho. The MG-22 has almost double the ROF of the AR-22, this allows it to provide cover fire much more effectivly. A longer, heavier barrel, which can be quick changed in 1 minute w/o tools, has been added and the action has benn reloacatec. Standard accesories include, movable handgrip, foldable bipod, TAC light, laser sight and aimpoint sight. The butt stock can be removed or replaced with a folding stock if needed.

OOC: Very Interesting weapon, good work with the pics btw. Though I have concerns over the wisdom of a 12 pound rifle and the recoil (not mention weight) of 11mm ammunition. Is this by any chance supposed to be a PMT/near PMT weapon?

OOC: With High-Power comes High-Recoil. Of course by any conventional means. Only a real man uses a gun without Delayed Intertia/Inertia Dampning systems; though not a huge population of NS are real men JUST KIDDING. So you gotz any Recoil Dampning or you selling plain rifles?
