Trivia

 * The sportshot rifle has a noticably small magazine only holding 10 rounds, even though it appears as a large box magazine on the model. The weapon the sport shot rifle resembles has a large 20-round magazine.
 * Strangely, there are variants of this weapon which will give you 3 stocks upon recycling, this is odd since a rifle, or any other firearm for that matter should never have more then one.
