Shoulder Fired Oerlikon Rifle

The Oerlikon 20 mm cannon is a series of autocannons based on an original German Becker Type M2 20 mm cannon design that appeared very early in World War I. It was widely produced by Oerlikon Contraves and others, with various models employed by both Allied and Axis forces during World War II. Many versions of the cannon are still used today.
This gun has been stripped from it's mount and had several parts removed. It has been reworked to be used as a shoulder fired weapon for use while in Power Armor. The gun has a weight of 150 lbs (empty) and is roughly 9.5 feet long. It was made and set up to be used while in Power Armor, and is realistically something that would not be able to be carried, let alone fired by a normal human. Because of the high recoil, the rifle is only single shot, and has no option to be made into a full auto version. It fires armor piercing high explosive rounds.
Normally the gun is chambered for 20 mm rounds, but to keep it so that people don't need to have any other mods to use it, I made it .50 caliber. Photos of the weapon damage are in the Images section.
If someone would like to make a Caliber-Complex patch for the gun they are welcome to, but I would not like any other patches made with out asking first.
The Shoulder Fired Oerlikon Rifle does not have any special animations or upgrades, and I will not be making any for it. It is just a basic no frills weapon just the way I like them.
As stated above in red the weapon cannot be improved or changed at the Weapon Workbench.
The Shoulder Fired Oerlikon Rifle has custom sound when firing.
The Weapon is craft-able at the Chem Bench and has its own listing, so it should be easy to find.
The mod is flagged as an ESL, so it does not take up any mod slots.
The mod is what it is, and unless it is a game breaking issue, will not be revised.
A huge thank you to NeoExperiences for aligning the ADS on the weapon, he did an awesome job lining them up and getting to work. Thanks again man. :)
A big thanks also to ChillyPencil for taking some really cool photos for me to add to the page for people to see. :)
If you are crashing at the Chem Bench when trying to make the weapons, go and download and enable the mod No More Legendary Screen, that mod will stop the crashing from happening. Make sure you get the correct copy of the mod for the version of the game you have.
