R104 Precision Rifle

Whilst the Longbow DMR is a misnomer - being more like a sniper rifle than a Designated Marksman Rifle - the R104 Precision Rifle acts to fill this niche, serving as the main mid to long range engagement weapon for both the IMC and Militia. It uses very high calibre rounds - even larger than the R111 - fired at high velocities, making it the champion of longer-range, protracted engagements where good pacing and a steady trigger finger is required.

Weapon Specifications
The R104 has a streamlined, graceful shape and is one of the only two weapons in the R Frame series to possess a bullpup layout, with the magazine loaded into the weapon's stock. It is also the second longest R Frame weapon, with an extended barrel to maximise its range, and uses 10.1mm rounds which are capable of punching straight through even a Pilot's strengthened skull. Grunt fireteams operating in open environments are typically issued R104s instead of Carbines, but they are less commonly seen in the hands of a Pilot as they tend to be harder to aim when on the move.
