L118A2 Sniper Rifle

[iggybomb]

L118A2 is finally complete. All real and correct AI except the barrel which is made off a Bartlein blank to the exact L118 profile and specs by Crescent Customs because it was specific to the contract so no hope of finding a real one (deviated in twist rate to optimize the gun for 185G Berger Juggernauts). Cool points are the AI suppressor adapter, AI QD scope mount (made specifically on contract for the L118a2 and L129A1), UK Spec ACI, and S&B PM2 3-12 with AI windage turret. 48 of these were purchased by the MoD and I can confirm that they are still in regiment armories and used for counter terror operations. I have seen two non public photos of them with the Accuracy first level and one with the badger rail with an LA5 mounted instead of the AI factory rail (also reasonable considering many L115A3s have been seen with the badger rail). To my knowledge there are no AI .308 suppressors in the US so it will be impossible to get the correct can. L115A3 and AI AW Covert are in progress and I will post them once completed. If anyone happens to have the AI inline front rail for the L118 or L115 or L96 please shoot me a message! Cheers

Turned out super nice.
I'd like to see your L115A3 when it.is done. I have a MOD marked L115A2.

Gorgeous build! One of these days I'd like to put one of the Gen1 rifles together. Need to learn more about them (the non folding stock).

Thanks for sharing!
