Company of Heroes: Vietnam Conflict is a total conversion modification for the PC game Company of Heroes. We are aiming to bring all the most iconic weapons and equipment of the Vietnam War to the RTS genre, and will be including helicopters, jets, tanks, new maps, new abilities and more. Our aim is to do for Vietnam what the original CoH did for WW2; to mix elements of realism and tactics with amazing graphics and fantastic gameplay, to deliver 'Nam as you've never seen it before.
Here, we have a beast of a bolt action, the M40 sniper rifle. This rifle has extreme range and accuracy, perfect for those budding Carlos Hathcocks amongst you.
for what its worth, I hate the recoil on it
I hate to say (such a nice model) but this is inaccurate. Here you have M40A3 - the newest variant. In Vietnam USMC (because it's theirs sniper rifle) used just M40 and M40A1 (they look almost indentical in shape, with the difference beeing woooden and polymer stock.) Here's picture:

Actually, the M40A5 is newer, but they're close.
Yeah I know. I was just having a little fun with this M40, because I didn't want it to look too similar to the M21. However it is highly unlikely that this will be the in-game variant, don't worry ;)
