Semi-Auto Rifle (Unkrown)

What is the identification of Semi-Auto Rifle in game?

that would be a chinese sks type 56 here is the link http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/SKS --Seekerdude (talk) 17:24, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

No, it's not an SKS due to the fact that it has a detachable straight-wall magazine. While an SKS can be modified with a detachable magazine, it would be tapered rather than straight due to its 7.62x39mm caliber (even 5- and 10-round mags in that caliber are tapered). Rather, the mag looks to me like an M1 carbine magazine that's just been enlarged. Another random note about the Semi-Auto Rifle are that its sights are misaligned, making it difficult to aim.

tell me about it all though the hooded sight led me to believe it was a type 56 also the detachable led me down this train of thought odd that the game developers used a ComBloc weapon / warsaw pact weapon --Seekerdude (talk) 11:22, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

It wouldn't be unusual at all, semi-automatic carbines like the SKS are very popular sporting arms in the US. Spartan198 (talk) 09:17, 15 August 2013 (EDT)

oops got it wrong http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Type_63_Rifle could this be it the weapon in question--Seekerdude (talk) 11:50, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

I thought it might be the Type 63, but the gas tube is above the barrel, rather than below. --Funkychinaman (talk) 11:54, 14 August 2013 (EDT)

So, this is like an m14 for gas tube and barrel. http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/File:M14Rifle.jpg --PaulD21x (talk) 07:27, 14 August 2013 (VE)

To my eye, it most resembles scaled down M14 in terms of shape, but with an lengthened M1 carbine magazine and Type 56-style peep sites. It's a frankengun, basically. Anyway, I'm gonna try to clean up the descriptions on the page, as it reads like English isn't the author's native language (there's nothing wrong with that, of course :) ) Spartan198 (talk) 09:17, 15 August 2013 (EDT)

There, now it's a little more understandable. I left the Semi-Auto Rifle's description as-is for until we come up with a consensus on it. Spartan198 (talk) 11:02, 15 August 2013 (EDT)

Good work, good translated. Sorry English is not my language, my official language is Spanish of Venezuela. I am Venezuelan, I think I'm the only Latin American in imfdb. --PaulD21x (talk) 01:49, 15 August 2013 (VE)
