What ARE these? these are NOT sniper rifles, and ive always pictured them as some sort of evolved WW2 rifles like the mosin nagant.
Light rifles
These are weapons with a slow fire rate… is this the anwser you were looking for?
they are sniper rifles, just not one-hit kill sniper rifles like in more popular games
There basically bolt action rifles , like the Kar98k you might of seen on the cod games 
no, i just wondered what these are related to in RL and, why are they light, surely theyd be heavier than Assault rifles.
ive heard them referred to as long rifles as well, and the light refers to the category they fall under, not their actually weight. They wanted all body types to be able to use them, so they put it with the light weapons
So bassicly, mosin nagants? and M1 garands and Other single shots like the FN FAl or m14?
These are original weapons. Why are you comparing them? One is bolt-action and the other is not.
is there a page where you can take a look at all the guns of brink? i’ve searched everywhere without success!:mad:
you can carry 2, one of your own weight and one that is under your weight, ie. if you are medium you could carry an assault rifle and SMG.
[QUOTE=iezza;290374]Only 2?
Worse than Homefronts choice of weapons then.[/QUOTE]
errmm…no! homefail had aswell “just” 2 sniper rifles if you remember. and i think in sniping is not that effective and needed in brink, so 2 are enough.
