Description A sneek peek to my next wallpaper... hehe

i did a little reasearch.
At first i thought it was a Steyr Scout sniper rifle (if you've played counter-strike you'd know it) [link]
Saw a couple of pics and it looks like a springfield sniper rifle (the ones americans used during the WW2) [link]
another rifle that was a bit similar (in my eye's opinion) is the M14 [link]
but after looking thru many different sniper rifles, the closest I can find is the m24 sniper rifle. [link]

and with the lack of magazine, i think it's the airsoft version as well.

edit:
Upon doing even more reasearch, it seems that this rifle looks more like teh VSR 10 [link]
i think that this is an airsoft only rifle and that there is no real weapon counterpart... i could be wrong thou.

edit again:
and yes.. i was wrong...
people from the AQS forum was able to dig up some info and the rifle turned out to be the "MC M40 Vietnam War version" [link]

yeah, but that's an ASSULT rifle, not SNIPER rifle

M14 may be an assult rifle, but if i rememebr correctly, it's also effective as a sniper rifle (that and it's semi-auto.. if not bolt action)

i gotta check my sources again for that thou.

and you get yelled at by the officers, right?

rule #1 when holding a rifle:
NEVER EVER EVER(!) point a rifle at anyone. Always assume that it's loaded (even if it's a model)
When you point a rifle at someone, your intent is "shoot to kill".

heard it from my officers:
point a gun (pistol) at the police (or any other "millitary" people), everyone will point theirs at you.
point a rifle at the police (or.. same as above), they open fire.
