For the people that play Combat Arms...

Recoil will almost never play into effect for an L96A1 or M24 because the bolt action requires you to wait a certain amount of time before firing anyways so the scope will automatically drop back to its original position.

Eh, go figure.

But either way, I think I'll stick with the M24 w/o silencer. That gun already proved its value to me either way. Now to find a time to go into a Snow Valley game and do some long-range sniping.....and shoot up the L96A1 bandwagoners.
