CMR-76

Sign in to edit

« Designated marksman rifle of an Eastern origin. It is a gas operated, semi-automatic rifle of a bullpup construction. The housing is made of polymer. The rifle is chambered in 6.5 mm and therefore is most suited to ranges from 500 to 700 meters. The CMR-76 is missing both the sides and the bottom rails but is equipped with a bipod by default.

The CMR-76 6.5 mm designated marksman rifle.

The CMR-76 is a 6.5 mm bullpup designated marksman rifle used exclusively by Pacific CSAT forces in ArmA 3. It was added with the release of the Apex DLC.

Overview[]

This is a premium asset that requires ownership of the Apex expansion pack.

The CMR-76 is a gas operated designated marksman rifle with a short-stroke piston that is chambered to fire cased 6.5×39 mm ammunition.

It loads from 20-round magazines, and can attain a fire rate of up to ~ 652 rounds per minute[CfgWp 6][Formula 1] with a muzzle velocity of 980 m/s.[CfgWp 7] It supports optics on its top rail[CfgWp 8] and can mount suppressors onto its muzzle.[CfgWp 9] However, it cannot be fitted with any flashlights or laser pointers, and eschews the need to mount underbarrel attachments since it utilises an integral bipod.[CfgWp 10]

The CMR-76 provides the operator with the ability to provide great sniper fire cover. Thanks to it having the highest muzzle velocity out of all DMRs in ArmA 3[CfgWp 7] and accuracy that is on par with that of the .338-chambered MAR-10[CfgWp 1], it can be effectively used to suppress enemies with precision accuracy at distances of up to ~ 790 metres.

It weighs the same as its NATO counterpart, the MXM[CfgWp 11], but is more accurate at medium-long ranges and has less recoil. Its bullpup layout also results in the CMR-76's inertia penalty being less than that of the MXM. As a matter of fact, its inertia penalty (0.5)[CfgWp 4] is the same as that of conventional assault rifles like the SPAR-16 (0.5)[CfgWp 12] despite the CMR-76 having a longer barrel.

The main downside to the CMR-76 stems from its small magazine capacity, which is limited to a maximum of twenty rounds[CfgMa 1] in stark contrast to the MXM's thirty or even up to one hundred if it is loaded with the MX SW's casket magazines.[CfgMa 2]

Furthermore, unlike most marksman rifles it is limited to a semi-automatic fire mode only. When it comes to attachment options, the CMR-76 only allows for sound suppressors and optical sights to be fitted. Due to the lack of a side rail, it is not possible to mount a laser pointer or flashlight.

Ironsights[]

Arma3-cmr76-ironsight-overview

The CMR-76's ironsights can be zeroed starting from a minimum of 100 metres up to a maximum of 600 metres (100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600).[CfgWp 13] It uses a default zeroing of 200 metres.[CfgWp 14] Neither the front nor rear sight are illuminated.

If an optical sight with a zeroing limit greater than 600 metres is attached onto the top rail (e.g. LRPS), the CMR-76 will only permit an absolute maximum zeroing of 1,400 metres.[CfgWp 15]

Camouflage[]

  • Black: Standard black paint finish. Primarily used by Pacific CSAT marksmen.
  • Hex: Arid Hexacam camouflage pattern.
  • Green Hex: Tropical Hexacam camouflage pattern.

Trivia[]

  • The CMR-76 is directly based on the real-world "QBU-88" designed by the China North Industries Corporation (NORINCO) for use by the People's Liberation Army, though the box magazine used by the CMR-76 contains twenty rounds rather than the ten on real QBU-88s.[2]
    • Given the PLA's adoption of the non-bullpup configured "QBU-191" designated marksman rifle in 2019[3], this rendition of the QBU-88 would be a highly anachronistic platform for ArmA 3's mid-2030s time period.
  • The CMR-76 is uniquely the only 6.5 mm-chambered firearm that fires cased ammunition rather than caseless.
  • Prior to Game Update 1.64, it was not possible to mount the Stealth Sound Suppressor onto the CMR-76's muzzle (it was restricted to regular 6.5 mm suppressors).[4]
    • It was also possible to get stuck while reloading the CMR-76 whilst the user was prone. This was similarly corrected after the patch's release.[4]
  • Although portrayed as the service DMR of Pacific CSAT forces, the CMR-76 (along with the CAR-95 series) uses an incorrect naming nomenclature despite the fact that other weapons like the Type 115 are designated correctly.
    • The correct designation for the CMR-76 would actually be Type 88-1 (not to be confused with the real North Korean-made "Type 88" assault rifle used by the Korean People's Army). The -1 suffix would be to designate that it is a further modernised and improved variant of the existing QBU-88.
The information below details unused, pre-release or removed content.
  • Prior to Apex's official release, teaser previews showed a large compensator installed on the CMR-76's muzzle. Although official screenshots still depict the compensator being installed[1], it was eventually removed from the in-game model for unknown reasons.

Formulae

  1. ↑ 60 / reloadTime = 60 / 0.092
  2. ↑ Magazine's initSpeed * Ammo's caliber * 15 / 1000 = 820 * 1 * 15 / 1000
  3. ↑ Weapon's initSpeed * Ammo's caliber * 15 / 1000 = 980 * 1 * 15 / 1000

Notes[]

  1. ↑ This value only applies to the magazine itself. The CMR-76's initSpeed value takes precedence and always overrides the magazine's muzzle velocity.
  2. ↑ This is the CMR-76's actual muzzle velocity. The weapon class initSpeed value (980 m/s) takes precedence over the magazine initSpeed value (820 m/s).
  3. ↑ Damage will be reduced if the projectile's velocity drops below this value.
  4. ↑ This is the actual penetration depth of the CMR-76's 6.5 mm ammunition. The weapon class initSpeed value (980 m/s) takes precedence over the magazine initSpeed value (820 m/s), affecting its penetration formula as a result.
