''Common Name: L9''


This is the most inaccurate and second least portable sniper. It also has the slowest firing rate, and a lower level of magnification than the M24, SR-25 or MSG-90. Yet this is the most popularly used sniper because of one thing: its ridiculously powerful one-hit kill. The power is over 100, so a shot to anywhere besides the leg is a 1 hit kill.

Yet this is the most popularly used sniper because of one thing: its ridiculously powerful one-hit kill. The power is over 100, so a shot to anywhere besides the leg is a 1 hit kill. If the L96A1 isn't equipped with a suppressor, any shot to a medium or light-vested opponent will result in a 1-hit kill.


Because it is bolt-action, recoil does not affect this gun. The bolt takes much longer to work than does the M24's bolt, the L96A1 also takes longer to scope. The L96A1's shots are very loud without using a suppressor, in fact, if you are playing in Snow Valley, nearly everyone in the map can hear your shot.

This Supply Case upgrade on the L96A1 differs only in that it is covered in green grass for camouflage, and that it comes with a suppressor. This suppressor is exactly the same as the S1 suppressor which you can buy from the Modification shop for just 100 GP.

This suppressor isn't exactly the same as the S1 suppressor which you can buy from the Modification shop for just 100 GP, as the Ghillie version is still a one hit kill to light and medium-vested targets. The Ghillie has the power of the regular L9 without the suppressor.


The L9 Ghillie seems to scope and fire a bit faster than the standard L9, but this might not be worth the money of trying to get it from a supply case.
