Sweetwater Operator: "Diamondback" F2000
REPOST, after rejoining the PMG group. thought this one should be in the pool.
Sweetwater design at its most intensive. Under everything you see here is what used to be an FN F2000... but the only thing left of the original rifle is the chamber lid.
---------------------------------------
The Diamondback, a lightweight version of the heavily-reinforced "Mantis," carries the very latest in electronics, inluding a magazine/mission round counter and ROF adjustment computer, a pressure-activated taclight, an IR laser unit integrated into the foregrip and a special edition Elcan SpecterDR- all made possible by Trapezoid CQC, Inc.
Using the strategy of the original F2000, spent casings are forced down a tube in the receiver to be ejected in front of the chamber- but this SPW mod uses a sophisticated reverse-blowback gas piston system to forcefully eject brass from a port above the trigger group. The forward action of this piston also counteracts rearward recoil, aiding accuracy.
With its two-piece polymer and aluminum ergo handguard, vented, high-volume QD suppressor, mesh-ported triangular heatshield and ergonomic rubberized grips nearly everywhere, the D-back is a prime example of Sweetwater engineering.
Finished in Sweetwater 'Bleak Sahara' tan.

Credit goes out to Irish Warrior for his sling buckle, Garde for the original magazine idea, trapezoidCQC for the scope, torch and laser (all of which were modified.) Credit also to Beck and Kevin for pioneering Sweetwater styling cues like the fluted silencer, the notches on the bottom of the stock and rubberized grippy pad things.
