M55 ARGUS
Miranda wasn’t happy that other people were gettting new gear, and there was nothing for her. So to stop her from squashing people with biotic powers, I made her a new gun. This is the M55 Argus assault rifle. The M55 is a modernised version of the older M96 Mattock design. With removal of the carry handle and integration of the main chambers the Argus has a much smaller profle and is easier to manage in combat. These changes allow the weapon to be wielded without the need for heavy weapon training. This does reduce its damage output compared to the Mattock, however the improved firing mechanism gives the Argus a burst fire ability unlike the Mattock.
The M55 Argus;
The Argus is a high-powered rifle favored by senior C-Sec officers. An excellent medium-range weapon, its bursts of fire ensure ammunition conservation during lengthy conflicts. Other law-enforcement agencies across the galaxy are adopting the Argus as their standard rifle, as much for its intimidation factor as its suppression power.

Yep Im back again with another ME3 weapon. This time the M55 Argus. I know some people thought I was a bit daft making the Mattock a heavy weapon, but I figured having two "mattock" style guns as rifles was a bit iffy. So thats why I split them between the classes, with the Argus as the AR.
In case your wondering, no its not just a "tweak" of my other gun. This is the actual Argus model, with a couple of edits, such as the usual stock chop and grip removal. Both are huge and clip badly so had to go. But since I already had "bits" for the Mattock, and knew where to edit, the gun came together a bit easier.
Paint wise Its "ok" imo, but still needs a few tweaks. However I currently have a few issues with my paint tools after a recent windows update, so things have been a bit wonky on that side (and extremely frustrating). As soon as the issues are resolved I will tweak up the paint some more and add a HD 2d Icon.
*NOTE*
Attachements DO NOT appear on the weapon; This is NOT a bug, its a design decision to keep the weapon from looking "fugly as hell" with attachments added. This is purely cosmetic, and stats will update when attachments are added.
