Sniper Rifle for Ponies

Description

As in many fanfics(mainly in FO:E), guns in pony world seems to be have the similar way to operate: mouth. And it seems to pretty legit.

Of course Unicorns do magic, but Pegasi and Earth ponies are not capable of handle things that need to done by exquisite workmanship, such as firing a Sniper rifle that needs to be extremely steady when target is one klick away.

I designed this when I was in barracks, rough sketch and Field Manual did helped me out little bit.

As in position, I drew prone position because it was obviously the most steadiest, and automatically it became shoulder mounted. Also it can be quickly deployed by carrying it on back of the pony.

Its major functional machine part positioned behind the trigger, as well as magazine. Shooters head is relatively close to muzzle, but it's acceptable.

Semi-Auto let the shooter don't needs to bother reload after every shot.

Bipod is to support the weight of the rifle and gives more steadiness.

Scope, I got the idea from Panzerfaust-III, instead measuring size of tank turret that scope measuring size of pony heads by the distance.  And can attach Iron sight instead.

Suppressor is detachable
I am not a mechanic, but I was a soldier for sure. My knowledge about weaponly gives me a lot of advantage I guess lol

Next time I'll draw Recoilless Rifle, which was my weapon back in army XD.

Expecting a whole lota fun

Seems the nature of the trigger would spoil precise aiming. You'd need heavy pull to prevent accidental firing with a chin lever.
