> I've only been playing the game long enough to move up to Corporal,and have had the L96A1 for a couple weeks,and have searched the forums for the answer I'm about to ask for,and never found it. Why is there white tape wrapped around the barrel of the L96,and why not use a camo scheme like the M24? I can only guess that the tape serves to break up the silhouette,is this the deal? Tommy D.
I always thought it was stuff to make a Turnikit out of. I'm Probably Wrong Though.Immobile Sniper wrote:

Doesn't it act to both break up the outline, and also has some silencing properties?
it kinda looks like toliet paper raped around the barel lol.
moved to BF2:Chatter, as this is obviously not an issue with bf2s.com. We don't do weapon designs...
No other effect than to break the outline.....doesnt matter what it is so long as it breaks the shape

And so stated one with the know. Question answered. Time for amod to trundle his ass in here and close the thread.
That for of camo is winter warefare.
Its white masking tape holding the barrel together.
maybe british steel aint that strong

AWP L96A1. The AW stands for Arctic Warfare so it's a camo deal with the white.
Isn't the one in-game an AWS (Arctic Warfare Suppressed)?

i honsetley thaught it was there to make the barrel camo and not be seen but alot of help that does in bf2
who
cares? merely some nice-looking eye candy on the ole awp (yes yes L96A1, but for me the awp). also serves some outline-breaking functions.
and please, no more toilet paper jokes... how lame.

It's so the barrel doesn't shine in the sun. Though it's just for looks in BF2.
