Actually, I was referring to the fact that an MP5 is an SMG and has an incredebly short barrel for any type of marksman gun, let alone a sniper rifle. Same thing with a G36c. The FPS doesn't matter. No gun stock, other than dedicated sniper platforms, are good sniper rifles. The mechbox can be upgraded. But with a carbine or an SMG, you would need to lengthen the barrel to at least 500mm to make it pointful to get any accuracy at range. So I say what the hell is the point? Carbines and SMGs exist for a reason, just like long rifles exists for a reason. It would be like taking an SL8 and turing it into a G36c. A full size G36 or M16 is a much better platform, again, with an FPS upgrade. Other than prooff of concept, I think turing a short-barreled gun into a sniper platform is retarded.
