Hi All!
Its February and its that time again! Time to show off alot of the new content we have been working on. Since the last release (v1.3), we have slowed progress on new weapons and started working on preparations for different types of camo systems and different parameter setups for all different kinds of players. We want to bring everyone together over the next few updates, because there are alot of people who love the original ballistic mods, such as 2.5 (With SKBP, JW and SW bonus packs), fix and extreme. More details on that in the coming months.
For this month, we will be showing off a number of weapons that are being worked on as we speak. Please not that alot of these models are still a work in progress and textures/models are subject to change. Release date for this content may vary depending on what the team want to work on, which at the moment is wandering more towards the camos ;) . For now though, enjoy the content and happy fragging!

Details
MX32 Rocket LMG
One of the weapons we have already released as part of 1.3, the MX32 Rocket LMG is a light support weapon that packs a punch in regards to the number of rockets it contains. Be wary of the rocket barrage that can not only be spammed towards the enemy but can be guided in a similar fashion to the G5 RPG. With its 5.56mm rounds and high rate of fire, this LMG is one of the faster LMGs and certainly a power not to mess around with!
Skrith Crossbow
WIP: One of the biggest work in progress weapons. Bringing this weapon to the skrith arsenal and certainly a sniper you do not want to mess with! With its different types of chargeable shots, this sniper can deal with all kinds of enemies at a long range will protecting the user close range with its extremely sharp pike. If you engage the skrith crossbow from a long range, you will lose no questions! If im wrong, sue me!
AH104 "Hellfire" HandCannon
WIP: One of the most beloved hand cannons, first making its appearance in the Sergeant Kellys Bonus Pack. Descibed as, "Hits like a truck" and "Time to run and Hide". This handcannon is the pinnacle of weapons within the Ballistic Weapons Mod so we defo cannot leave this weapon out of the collection! However we want to upgrade this handcannon even further! The new model has access to a Flamer Module, as described by the name "Hellfire". More details on this one soon!
Viper SMG
WIP: The E23 Viper has been the only gun from the viper arsenal to make it into the mod for over 15 years, until this year! The Viper SMG is a lighter, faster and close range variant to the Viper Rifle which will sport fire mods that benefit this weapon as a PDW with close range attacks and the speed of a pistol.
Looks amazing as always! 😺
