 You know, the Stoner 63 is pretty modular. Can be used as everything from a carbine to a LMG. Mix and match! Slap a 150-round drum on it and you can finally get some use out of all of that .223 ammo you've left behind.  Really, look it up. Plenty of info around. Such a big kit, so many possibilities. (I imagine it isn't already in the game. Forgive me if I'm mistaken.) Oh, and I found some VEPR variations. Minor stuff, but still fun.

.45 ACP +P ammunition. More pressure for an already powerful round. Special ammo for a special weapon. The HK MK23 along with other "classics" can supposedly handle it. Special ops stuff indeed!  Then there's .45 Colt. +P variants come with almost twice (!) the pressure. Great for those big nasty revolvers and rifles (carbines?).

Due to the nature of XML modding, it would be easier to introduce .45 Colt, including +P, instead of adding +P .45 ACP. I'll think about it because there is going to be a big gap in the middle when I move .223 Remington to the end of the ammo list (so I can easily add all the versions on the todo list).

No to the Glock 22LR conversion: 1) not much reason to downgrade any found Glocks, even less for ones bought and shipped to your mercs 2) already plenty of European Polymer pistols in .22 LR GSS 7.62x39mm - I'll think about depending on how the whole ammo revamp for later this year goes. EDIT: will be adding the following: Modernized FG-42 - gets more use out of 20 round mags for 8mm Mauser (or whatever notation is used in-game) PDR-C - again it fits a niche in-game, and must encourage people to do more artwork. Hint to people who browse this thread, throw artwork at me and I'll come to you asking for permission to add it to the mods...

.408 or .375 Cheytac isn't the best unless you are going for short tactical insertions due to availability (especially in JA2). Tough gun to draw in 117px too due to detail, but can be done. Though I think others are needed first. Working on these at the moment:

wil473: it is a posible make cleaning aviable for pistols ? Sure anything that I figured out how to setup with items and mergers can be applied to another gun, but the question is do I want to? Answer is no, the Cleaning Kit was originally meant to take the edge off of lack of reliability found on AR-15. It later expanded to other rifles. I am not going to expand weapons that cleaning kits are applicable to pistols as that would water down its purpose even more.

I made a rather impassioned case for inclusion of the the Winchester Model 94 lever action rifle in .30-30 caliber over in the AIMNAS request thread. I don't know how to link to a specific post, sorry, I think I have the only posts that discuss the .30-30 so a quick search ought to turn it up.
In summation: It is a very real, very popular (millions!) rifle / caliber combination. They are ubiquitous in the United States. They are also quite popular in South America, the setting for JA2's fictional Arulco, and has military application as a "scout rifle" platform when mounted with a low power (2.5-4x) scope. This is a gun highly likely to be found in the militia of a poor South American nation. My post in the AIMNAS forum has links to scope mount manufacturers, ghost ring sight sellers, and a synthetic stock "tactical" .30-30 lever action made by Mossberg - with rails even! With modern ammunition (that has eliminated the blunt nose bullet limitation) the .30-30 gives up nothing to any other intermediate range rifle caliber.
More important than the rifle really is the .30-30 cartridge itself, the most popular caliber by far in the lever action platform, and much harder hitting than any pistol-caliber (.44, .357, etc.) lever gun. In fact, the rifle could even be a Marlin 336, or Mossberg 464, etc and not the Winchester. I do like the Winchester Model 94 because the graphic is already in the XML and that particular .30-30 lever action was made in vast numbers since its introduction in 1895, 117 years ago!
I made one for my own game using the Winchester trapper graphic. Since the ballistics of the .30-30 are similar to 7.62x39mm Warsaw Pact I made it take that caliber, though it really needs it's own ammo entry. My attempts to add a caliber didn't work out so well. I will persist but I'm sure some xml whiz can knock it out in a day.

I also agree with Wolf00 that some more revolvers are needed, but if a new caliber is called for, .45 Long Colt is a no brainer. The .454 Casull in game is a lengthened .45 LC, and is "backwards compatible," .45 LC can chamber in those guns. Not in-game, of course, but in real life.
Plus, with .45 LC we can have ambidextrous Colt Peacemakers. Yee-haw!
One more thing that bothers me. .223 Remington and 5.56x45mm guns take different ammunition. .223 and 5.56x45mm are technically (though not practically) different but the in-game effect caused by separating them as two ammo types leads to a bizarre situation where a merc cannot use ammo that really ought to fit, even in a pinch.
The same situation in real life exists with the interchangeability of .308 Winchester and 7.62x51mm ammo but JA1.13 simply uses the latter even in rifles that should be .308 in real life, such as the Steyr Scout or the Vepr-308 (which even has .308 in the name)! Come to think of it this would be a good solution for .223, get rid of it altogether and change the .223 guns to 5.56x45mm since there are only a few .223 guns relative to the number of 5.56x45mm guns. This eliminates complication and is a real-world solution a ragtag bunch of scrounging mercs would adopt anyway!

@Wil473: I gathered some infos for you The DB-10 is the bullpub version of the H&K SLB2000 hunting rifle. barrel: 20" overall length: 82cm calibers: .223 /5.56x45 7,62mm NATO (.308 Win) 30-06 7,92x57 IS (Mauser) 300 Win Mag Weight: 4,6kg Magazin sizes: 2, 5, 10 Price:€1,796.90 (inkl. 19 % MwSt.) I think for this rifle large calibers are interesting, eg. 300 Win Mag. Could be used as a sniper's secondary rifle for medium ranges, using the same ammo. ++++++++++++++++++++++ The Remington XP-100 is a single-shot pistol that is chambered with rifle ammo: .223 (5.56 mm NATO) .308 (7,62 mm NATO) and some other, rather strange calibers Apparently it's able to take a bipod it could be an early-mid-game medium range (20-40) weapon suited for gunslinger mercs (could be in sidney's starting gear) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remington_XP-100The ugly wooden version can't be used ambidextrous. ++++++++++++++++++++++ The XP-100R is the improved version: a bolt action repeating pistol (4-5 shot mag) available in many calibers. Ideal caliber would be 5.56 /.223. AFAIK it has an internal mag, but no exchangeable mag. ++++++++++++++++++++++ Fortek 2002 is an state-of-the-art, extremely accurate(<0.5 MOA), not too expensive (€3,750) precision rifle /AMR.. It's made by a small gunsmith, "Manufaktur Heinrich Fortmeier" Weaknesses are: No Magazine, large dimensions(Overall length: 123cm)and a weight of 10.67kg (including bipod) Calibers: .338 Lapua, 7,62mm NATO, .50 BMG barrel length: 79cm unique to this gun: its carrying handle is on its bottom site. It' similar to the Steyr HS50(both are based on an earlyer version of this gun) http://www.50bmg.de/CALIBER/C_10_Fortmeier-_1_.pdfshooting&reloading should cost IMO not less than 80 AP ++++++++++++++++++++++ Mauser SR93: http://arthuro12.deviantart.com/art/Mauser-SR-93-76980768unique: it has an internal bipod that retracts into the stock. ++++++++++++++++++++++ Gressar 2000: another bullpub hunting rile overall length: 80 cm weight: 4,4 kg (without scope) calibers: 7.62 NATO, .30-06 Spring. .300 Win. Mag. barrel: 51 cm It has an internal Magazine of 2, 3 or 4 shots ++++++++++++++++++++++

- rework all item sizes now that the limits have been externalized (this will take weeks...) No kidding! I have a spreadsheet for the itemsizes I use in AIMNAS. Maybe you'd want to use that as well. ATM I use 950 item sizes instead of 34. If you're interested I can upload the spreadsheet to my skydrive. - rework graphic libraries now that there are more of them available. This will actually take even longer than item sizes. Even getting a decent 10 colour palettes for the the 10 available sti files is a LOT of work. I tried to make the palettes and gave up on that due to lack of time.

Think I'll put in a request for a long slide LAR Grizzly. Something for BR's Used section, maybe? I enjoy rarities. Perhaps after I fill in the .410 & .45Colt roster. Looks like I have a candidate for the first .45Colt rifle for the game, and it is a dual calibre weapon too: Rossi(Legacy) Puma in .454Casul and .45Colt with a 10 (9+1) round capacity. Need to see what else is suggested before I decide on adding a new capacity size for .454Casul
