The sniper version has the scope mounted so that the stripper won't work. So it's one round at a time, with the scope in the way. I suppose the snipers weren't in a big hurry to reload. One or two rounds and they were out of there. The sniper version is a much smoother operating gun though. -- I can see why the "sniper" version would be your preference.

I assume it is the same reason why you wanted the Hbar AR (besides sliding through the Md loophole in the law) They were a selected for better accuracy than the standard infantry version. |
