We would like to enquire on the service history of this firearm within your country's own armed forces or else that of another country that uses it. That plus it's effectiveness in comparison to more traditional sidearms like the 1911, Five-Seven, and USP.

Thank you.

From: Chernobl Military Industries.

The LP-12 has seen action in the 1998 Ishevskia conflict, where it was charged with hundreds of kills. It also saw action in the Kurabistan invasion. where it logged an estimated 14,000 kills. In comparison to other weapons, the LP is superior in accuracy and stopping power to the 1911. The USP is less accurate at long distances. The Five SeveN though superior in stopping power, it is infamously unreliable, unlike the LP which has never suffered a combat failure. We hope you will purchase the LP-12 over all of the following weapons.

Thank you.

"To each according to his ability, from each according to his desire to give."

Greetings to the state of Chernobl, the Third Empire sends its congratulations on designing a handgun worthy of interest. The Third Empire has been studying this handgun for some time now, and has decided that it will begin the first phase of acquisition. Should the weapon see combat action, we will be glad to report the results, effectiveness, and abilities of this firearm in our own military experience. We are thrilled to replace our aging stockpile of 1911 handguns with something else. Though this order shall not replace, eliminate, or dent the stockpiles of that particular handgun, it will allow us to outfit some newer divisions and elite forces with this handgun.

With that in mind, the Imperial Ministry for Defense has lodged the following order with the Chernobl Military Industries:


1,000,000 x LP-12


This comes to a total of $450 million dollars, which the Ministry for Defense shall wire once confirmation of the order has been received.

Signed
