MW2 M16A4 Grenadier (for SCAR)

Description
Colt M16A4 with M203 from CoD: Modern Warfare 2

A version of the M16A2 with a removeable carrying handle, doing so would reveal the Picatinny rail for alternative sights or scopes. Typically, the factory handguard is replaced with a quad-rail one which allows installing more gadgets like LAMs or vertical grips.

Replaces the "Desert Combat Rifle" (model and reloading sounds)

I took some liberties with the model here and there. I removed the never-used rail on the carry handle which only disfigured the rear sight (which is normal now), added a laser aiming module from the game's resident Intervention, and set the selector to "burst" (even though the texture says "auto"). I could have picked MWR anims because that's what CoD4 M16A4 (and MW2CR version) uses, but the OG MW2 version uses the M4A1 animations instead, and I'm not sure about the clipping induced by the thick rail covers. So by adding a grenade launcher, I side-stepped the issues and made the skin more diverse. Too bad that the reload animation is rather slow as a result of being a SCAR replacement, but imagine your player character has a Clumsiness of Hand perk. Well, the animation is now only slowed down when you play online, as the offline version takes 2.2 seconds to reload instead.

Okay, so I added a faster animation to play offline only. I tested it both online and offline.

Hell, I did already mention that in my previous comment.

I can make it faster. But that will break it online... unless I make the offline-only animation to be fast, and the online-only animation to be slow.

That might be a fun little experiment.

fun to use but holy crap the reload is so painful to watch

This is an unfortunate byproduct of the Desert Rifle having 3.3 seconds reload time. I might, however, make a local-only faster reload, on par with M16 and AK with 2.2 seconds, so that online is still takes 3.3 seconds to be consistent.

Ok. Thank you for the reply.

No, no such plans at the moment. I added the launcher to coincide with the release of the actual GL replacement, and because I wanted to change the animation set for a long time. With how large the rail covers are, I don't think any conventional animation would fit it without clipping; as an option I might consider a vertical grip.

I preferred this mod back when it didn't have the grenade launcher, any change of making a version of this gun mod without the grenade launcher again, please?
