Trivia

 * The rifle has two magazines sellotaped together, allowing for quicker reloads, but despite this the reload animation is carried out in a slower succession.
 * The reloading animation just consists of the two sellotaped magazines being flipped around and inserted, no matter how many magazines the player goes through.
