Oh look, another TFU suggestion people will hate me for.
Brief description of idea: Add a light 5.56 DMR to the TFU's Arsenal. My idea would be:
Add the SG550 with the already compatible PMII Scope. In my experience I feel like the SG550 is way more accurate and suited for this role (And it's just my preference).
If not then the M16A4 should get the same option for those that prefer this weapon instead.
(Controversial) Possibly give us the option to put a 5.56 suppressor on these weapons which would make them a valuable asset for outdoor situations that require it where the Remington M24 lacks in firerate due to it being a bolt-action weapon. Possibly introduce a limit to how many suppressed DMR's you can have currently deployed to not make the M24 obsolete.
Please discuss if you should be able to put a suppressor on these weapons, even without the PMII scope in place. This is not intended to replace the M24 Remington.
What benefits would this idea have for the department: Add a viable semi-automatic weapon that excels at range but not at close range situations.
Hopefully not even close to OP as a ACOG rifle is still the perfect middle ground for ranged firefights due to the back-up and main sight. These DMR should not have the option for a ACOG sight.
What potential negatives could this have for the department: Would most likely make the M24 Remington a less popular choice when more suppressed weapons are introduced.
Other additions: Just want a SG550 tbh.
