@"Shikeh" I see your point. Your sarcasm image of Top Gun is legit reason to not be in favor of a possible buff to a gun which "any indie" can use with agency ID. But look - there is always a solution to such a problem and it can be handled with "faction agency ID".
For example - current adapted guns can remain as they are - unchanged...while Copy of them to be created, slightly modified/buffed - locket per faction ID (Currently LSF| and BDM| as only official factions cuz BIS and Kempetai are not official or nonexistant)...In this way indies wont be able to use the buffed variant while official factions that will not abuse them - will properly RP them out.
Faction perks exist and things tied to a specific ID can be done...its possible way and better step forward instead to consider all under same roof (indies/officials) and reject to buff weapons that are useless due to possible indie abuse.
