• w_model: World model for dropped weapons and third-person views, with accurate hitbox alignment to prevent clipping issues on the ground.
• Custom Sounds: Original firing bursts and reload clips pulled from CSO sources, adding a deep, echoing boom that stands out in noisy firefights. No overlapping audio conflicts.
• Inspect Animations: Full set of intuitive inspection sequences, including spin and detail views, synced perfectly with the v_model for immersive handling.

This model emphasizes hitbox accuracy, aligning pellets precisely with the visual barrel for reliable close-range hits. Polycount stays low to maintain 100+ fps on older rigs, ideal for LAN parties or public servers.

Usage Features

In matches, the CSO Rail Cannon's bulky design can psych out opponents, buying seconds for flanks on sites like A or B in classic maps. Pair it with a no-recoil script for sustained fire, though purists stick to defaults. The unique silhouette aids in quick weapon ID during deags or mid-round picks.

Safety first: All files scanned clean—no viruses, backdoors, or slow-hack elements. No adware, no auto-connect scripts, just pure mod content. Compatible across MasterServer protections, won't trigger anti-cheat bans on legit servers. For bot play, ensure .nav files are updated if using custom maps.
