NV-KR5 sniper carbine

"I am death, bringer of dark. And you're a dead punk."

- A Necasian sniper before shooting a target

The NV-KR5 sniper carbine was a type of sniper weapon used by the Necasian Military during the Cruentusian War, predominantly by the Necasian Sharpshooter Cohort. Introduced in the latter half of the first year of the war, the rifle was partly based on the Srav Drag-76 sniper rifle. With a magazine of 6 rounds, the NV-KR5 had a longer range than the Drag, but was generally considered to have lower accuracy, and it was also heavier for most. Its rate of fire was also sometimes brought up as an issue. Nevertheless, later in the war refined versions were developed, imitating the later Drag's radio control feature that allowed users to aim and fire the rifle remotely, though this was not a feature preferred by veteran snipers.
