Hey, I made an improvement on the scope image halfway down the page of this article. Thought I'd leave it here for you guys to decide if its decent enough for the page. I just used Paint, maybe someone could do a better job using Photoshop or something, if they wanna improve it a bit better. -[[User:TheLostJedi|'''<span style="color:maroon">TheLostJedi</span>''']] 19:26, 31 October 2008 (UTC) | Hey, I made an improvement on the scope image halfway down the page of this article.

Thats just not true. The SRS99D is just a variant of the SRS99 S2 AM series of rifles, and they should all be included in one article. Differences in game play are minimal and the difference in look does not make it look like a whole new class of weapons either. Why not discuss this with me in the talk page rather then the history?

**Like i've been saying a hundred upon thousands of times to you, and YOU only. The MA5C, and the MA5K have their own articles, and their variants of the MA5 series. The M6C and M6G are variants of the M6 series, they have their own articles. The merging of the BR55 and the HB SR failed, and I say this article should stay as it is. | **Like i've been saying a hundred upon thousands of times to you, and YOU only.

**They have different magazine sizes, power, rate of fire, dual wieldability, etc. The two S2 AMs only differ in rate of fire barely, in fact the S2 AM from the first Halo is far more different from the S2 AM in the second halo then this one is (nigh vision, 2x instead of 5x), and yet it does not have its own article. I think the S2 AM should just have its own article with variants as subsections. | **They have different magazine sizes, power, rate of fire, dual wieldability, etc. The two S2 AMs only differ in rate of fire barely, in fact the S2 AM from the first Halo is far more different from the S2 AM in the second halo then this one is (nigh vision, 2x instead of 5x), and yet it does not have its own article.

#'''Against Merge''' Gameplay doesn't factor in to the actual finesse of the models, and shouldn't really be used as a reason to merge. Besides, like CT said, the MA5 series all have their own articles. --[[User:Maslab|Do not insult me.]] 23:04, October 4, 2009 (UTC) | |||
:Thats because the MA5 Varients actualy vary significantly in power, accuracy, fire rate, range and slightly astheaticaly. the only differences between all of the SRS99 varients is looks and that MC doesn't automaticaly correct the aim after recoil hits but thats not actualy about the gun.

In Halo 3: ODST it seems to be the same Model, but it seems smaller. This is probably because the Version used in Halo 3 was made for Master Chief. But sense you're a ODST you can't wield that big of a Rifle. | In Halo 3: ODST it seems to be the same Model, but it seems smaller.

@Whoever that is up there ^ (please remember to sign your name with four tildes) it's the exact same model. Why would they spend more on materials and development of different sized rounds and components just to scale it up to a single Spartan's size, and keep the same damage? --[[User:Maslab|Do not insult me.]] 23:09, October 4, 2009 (UTC) | |||
it also seems to do less damage, I have seen brute minors live after a headshot with this weapon on easy. [[User talk:Jabberwockxeno|Jabberwockxeno]] 21:53, October 12, 2009 (UTC) | |||
== Edit Summary == | |||
Continuing my edit summary: Small corrections made, usually concerning nomenclature or punctuation. Also, there was a tidbit in the disadvantages about easily missing shots when not using the telescopic sights, especially head shots: I don't know if the author intended this, but that statement (I didn't put its exact wording here) inferred that head shots were easier. The head is a very hard target, due to its size - and that difficulty is compounded by the fact that the head is often mobile. <b>[[User:Smoke.|<span style="color:#770000; font-weight:bold; font-family:Tahoma Small Cap">Smoke</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Smoke.|<span style="color:#770000; font-weight:bold; font-family:Tahoma Small Cap">Sound off!</span>]]</sup></b> 00:23, December 20, 2009 (UTC) | |||
==Range== | |||
It says the range of this sniper is "Standoff". If anyone can specify whatever this is. I think it might be the length of standoff the Halo 3 map, but what is its length??? [[Special:Contributions/98.242.105.36|98.242.105.36]] 06:19, December 24, 2009 (UTC) | |||

I just noticed that there is a close similarity between the Trinity symbol and the [[:File:WST Logo.png|Weapon Systems Technologies logo]].
