Thorpe EM1

Description
The EM-1 was one of the British post-WWII rifle development projects with the ambitious goal of replacing both the infantry rifle and the submachine gun with a single select-fire weapon optimized for combat within 600 meters and the first rifle was ready for test firing in December 1949. As NATO trials rapidly approached in the early 1950s, it became clear that the UK could not submit both The Thorpe EM-1 and the Janson EM-2 for testing. The EM-2 was a simpler rifle and more likely to succeed, and so the EM-1 was dropped from development and all efforts concentrated on the EM-2, thus abandoning the EM1.

The scope of this mod replicates the effect of a dual render scope, but will not cause frame loss.

The gun already features different reloading animations when empty and partially full. I won't be adding one round in the chamber.

Realoading animation need improvement. One round in the chamber and reloading while the magazine still have ammo type thing. Pls add b/c i love this mod a lot. Thanks a lot <3

I dont know if accept Requests or not but if so...can you perhaps make an Armalite AR-10 Rifle from the 1950s in the future?

Glad to see people are liking it!

Firstly, this made me smile to see somebody had done it. I'm an absolute sucker for all the EM series guns.

Secondly, good job capturing the size of the gun, judging from screenshots (before loading it up) you've done very well in demonstrating just how damn large the EM-1 is. I've stood next to them in real life and online representations very rarely capture just how big all of the (well known) EM series are.

Thirdly, on the note of additional optics mounts, the EM-1 never had them nor a pure iron sighted version. There were about 3-4 EM-2s modified to use a 3.5x "Sniper" optic but no EM-1s. The reasoning behind the use of optics was due to the *somewhat* dubious logic of the shorter sight distance meaning less accuracy, but given that it has been fine on other bullpups I think this was an excess concern.

The scope reticle is pixelated because of the way this scope system works. If it hits the point where the gun is unusable because of the pixelation, then it won't be effective at that range anyway.

Is the scope reticle really blurry for anyone else?

He’s a little confused but he’s got the right spirit
