The only lineart I've seen better than PMG was some that a guy posted when I said I've never seen lineart better than PMG. Other than that, PMG, if not done up stupidly, looks better.

The front sight looks too low, and I'd personally extend the handguard forward to cover that bulky bit just in front of it. But then again, depends if you're from the form>function school or not.

Name: AAS-98 (Automatic Assault Shotgun 1998)
Manufacturer: Yorktown Armaments
Year: 1998
Length: 850mm
Barrel Length: 430mm
Weight: 3.8 kg unloaded
Action: Lever Delayed Blowback
Rate of Fire: 1,200 RPM
Cartridge: 28 gauge
Feed System: 15 round magazine, or 50 round drum
Cost: $930
$125 for USSSFTA-02
DPRs: $930 million
$125 million for USSSFTA-02

History
The AAS-98 was developed in the late 90's as an export rifle which would be marketed to foreign nations as an assault shotgun. The goal of the AAS was to be a fully automatic shotgun with the ability to put out enough lead to clear out a room in only a few seconds regardless of the number of people defending it. The first problem in designing the AAS-98 was the decision over which size shell to use, some people in Yorktown Armaments proposed a 10 gauge shell, other proposed 12, 20, and 28 gauge shells. In the end, it was decided that a 28 gauge shell would be much easier to control on full auto, and it was decided to chamber the AAS-98 in 28 gauge. The first prototype of the AAs-98 was finished in 1996 and after 15 months of testing, and modification, mass production began in early 1998. In 2010, Yorktown Armaments made a deal with The Royal Britannian Arms Manufacturing Co., where by RBAM would produce and sell the AAS-98 with Yorktown Armaments receiving 50% of all profits.

Design
The AAS-98 operates on a lever delayed blowback system, where leverage is used to delay the opening of the breech. The cartridge fired by the AAS-98 is a 28 gauge shotgun shell, offered in shot, slugs, and flechettes. The very high rate of fire allows the shooter to put out hundreds of projectiles in one second, allowing even armoured targets to be killed by random shot hitting the face and other unarmoured parts of the body. In the event that the user wishes to penetrate body armour, then the option exists to use shells loaded with 4 tungsten flechettes, or a solid slug, both of which are capable of bringing down armoured targets.

Under-slung flamethrower
As well as regular attachments such as bayonets, under-slung shotguns, and under-slung grenade launchers, the AAS-98 has an unusual attachment in the form of a one shot flame thrower. The AAS-98 can have the USSSFTA-02 (Under-Slung Single Shot Flame Thrower Attachment 2002.) As the long form of its name suggests, the USSSFTA-02 is a rail attached under-slung flame thrower, with a small tank, only capable of one or two short bursts. The main role of the USSSFTA-02 is to be used in assaulting bunkers, where the user simply inserts the nozzle into a opening in the bunker, and uses his one shot to roast the occupants alive. The USSSFTA-02 has a maximum range of 10 meters, and can be fired for 3 seconds straight. The fuel and pressurized gas tank combined weigh 10.5 kg, and are small enough for a soldier to carry one or two extra tanks.

I am asking people to search for any faults no matter how small before I put this up on NSD.


I'm not keen on the stock, since that kind of M4 stock generally is generally collapsible and rests on some kind of tube. At present, it looks a little too short IMO.

Rawr! Sketchiness and Galil-inspired carry handles! A hand-drawn Rsa/55/G1 with G2 Pistol grip and receiver, and detail on the sights! I'd do a statdump, but aside from it being a left-side loading .303 battle rifle that is restricted to semi-automatic fire (by an easily removable rod of malleable metal) that RAID likes to cut down to give their ambushes more 'Oomph', Does anyone really care about that?
Image


The G2 receiver and weapon is still produced by Ramsetia Munitions Production Group, and they will make G1s by request or in limited 'collector's' runs to commemorate special occasions.

The G2 receiver and pistol grip were thought up on-the-spot, I'd appreciate constructive criticism on the weapon, and not my horrible lack of art skills.

Only complaint is that the mag latch is a little bit too small and might be difficult to manipulate with winter gloves, and it lacks a bayonet lug.

Volley sights?

Old models of the SMLE has dial-type volley sights that set the rifle at a high angle and lobbed the bullet over long distances to kill massed infantry with massed infantry. Your sights do the same.

By "on officers" do you mean that it's part of their standard-issue kit? Are you implying every member of your commissioned force is a fully qualified sniper? Either that's a very small group or very expensive to train and maintain.

Either that or you mean that your snipers shoot at officers...which really isn't of note since in modern warfare, that would be common sense.
