This sniper rifle is capable of firing 52 shots per minute.
  • Martini Henry: Customised for medium-range shot kills, the Martini Henry sniper rifle's USP is that it lets players shoot enemies in the stomach to finish them off. Body damage inflicted, by the Martini Henry, causes 100X damage compared to the SMLE MK3.However, close-range shots require firing of comparatively more shots, as the Martini Henry is more customised for medium-range targets than short-range ones.This means that it is desirable for players to use pistols for enemies at close-range. Finally, the Martini Henry sniper rifle is capable of firing 38 rounds per minute.
  • M1903: This sniper rifle is custom-made for long range shots; it is capable of finding sweet spots between 100-150 metres. The M1903 offers effective head shots to finish-off long range enemies. However, in case of missed head shots, the rifle is capable of inflicting damages only in the range of 60-80x.Therefore, this weapon is recommended for experts, rather than amateurs.The M1903 is capable of firing 53 rounds per minute. Bullet drop is 12 metres per second.
  • Russian 1895: Custom-made for medium and long-range shots. Offers one-shot chest kill between 60-85 metres. USP of this gun is that it can be reloaded comparatively faster. It is capable of firing 62 rounds per minute. Bullet drop is 12 metres per second.
