M99 SASR

The M99 Special Application Scoped Rifle, (formally known as the Long Range Sniper Rifle, Caliber .50, M99), is a sniper rifle produced by Misriah Armory and used by the UNSCDF.
== History ==
The M99 entered service with the UNSC Army in 2430. Because of its modular design and ongoing manufacturer support, the rifle was adopted by all branches in 2462.
Though introduced during the Insurrection, the M99's best known use was against Covenant forces during their war with humanity; it proved invaluable in eliminating most personnel types, (from unggoy to mgalekgolo), from long-to-extreme range. It was later found to be effective against Imperial forces during the border skirmishes that occured in 2557 and 2558.
== Design details ==
The M99 SASR is a semi-automatic, gas-operated sniper rifle that fires match grade 12.7x99mm or 11.43x77mm ammunition from an eight- or ten-round detachable box magazine, dependant upon configuration. The charging handle and ejection port are located on the right side of the weapon. The rifle is designed in the conventional layout, with the magazine and operating system located in front of the trigger.
The M99 has an overall length of 140 centimeters in standard (anti-materiel) configuration and is highly modular. It is fitted with an Oracle optic that features two levels of zoom and both night-vision and thermal view modes, in addition to showing range, elevation and wind speed. The rifle is also equipped with a recoil-compensation system, backup iron sights, and a folding bipod.
