L115 is a Sniper rifle, available for the Sniper and Gunslinger classes.
Appearance[]
The L115 in the game is similar in appearance to the real-life AWM. The rifle has a tan color tone and features a black bipod, stock covers, bolt handle, barrel, magazine, and attached muzzle. The rifle comes equipped with an optical scope that matches the same color as the gun. Additionally, there are pins of various sizes visible on both the gun body and the scope.
Description[]
The L115 is the sniper rifle with the highest impact, having the ability to one-shot most of the classes, with some even with body shots. However, it has the poorest ammo capacity, only carrying 1 round per magazine (3 when upgraded).
The L115 also has the lowest fire-rate among the sniper rifles. However this is not to be worried about.
The AWP is the custom version of the L115 and it emphasizes going for headshots as it increases headshot damage by 50%.
Pros and Cons[]

- Being a Sniper; has both outstanding range and accuracy different from other weapon classes.
Cons[]
- Low fire rate.
- Low ammo capacity and spare ammo capacity.

Tips[]
The L115 is a high-risk-high-reward sniper rifle for the Sniper playstyle, primarily due to its extremely high impact but low ammo capacity. It is best to go for headshots as they can instantly kill enemies. That being said, this would mean that the L115 requires great skill as you will have to always aim for the head.
The L115 is also best used with 2+ star upgrades, as it will have higher ammo capacity, and will even have unparalleled accuracy.
The Extended Mag is a very good attachment due to its handicap with ammo capacity. The Ballistic CPU is also good for the L115, particularly if you are using it against higher-leveled enemies.
The L115 and its custom version the AWP are one of the best snipers in the game, comparable with the Intervention / Rehab. It is very much recommended to use this weapon if you are going for the Sniper playstyle.
