For the low-low price of free you could have your very own request done. Just note with a detailed description, sketch, or link to a weapon that needs shoopin'. No real or preset weapons. The more interesting and realistic the better.

The ABR 14A4 is a rather simple, if odd weapon chambered in 7.5x50US. For all intents and purposes, it is an M12 ICR cut up and reassembled in a non-bullpup configuration. Few ABRs were ever manufactured "fresh" from all new parts, rather they are the scraps and leftovers of ICR parts, mostly from damaged or highly used weapon that have been sent back to the manufacturer, who then either repairs the weapon or salvages the usable parts into ABRs. Very few ABRs circulate back into Marine armories, instead they are sold at wholesale discount to the United States Colonial Expansion Service, and some of the more accurate long-barreled ones find their way into Army and police hands as DMRs, often along side of real ICRs.
While the ICR has several advanced recoil compensation systems (Counter weights, collapsing bolt, etc), the ABR lacks anything besides an odd, even by Greyson standards, variation of their collapsing bolt system, leading to many heavily bruised shoulders from Mil-Spec ammunition and a "shitty" stock. In addition to its other drawbacks, the short barrel leaves its accuracy well below that of the CQIR and allows a large portion of the propellant to escape, reducing velocity and producing a massive muzzle flash. Even the most hardened opponents of government and military spending see the 14A4 as a counter point to be a low blow.

Expect some more fine tuning tomorrow, when I'm not half passed out.
The higher the quality and the more time spent on something seems to have inverse effect on views and comments.
