The L1 itself was a simple, durable and effective weapon and came in three main versions. The basic version, the A1, didn't look like a sniper rifle at all - with a very short barrel and no scope, rangefinder, or even iron sights - it looked more like a scattergun than a sniper weapon. The A2 had the classic long barrel but still lacked any even rudimentary aim assist features. And only the most advanced A3 was equipped with a targeting scope, which made this version more or less adequate to be called a sniper rifle.
The sniper rifle was produced in four color schemes.
