How hard would it be to make Norfang a reality

How Hard would it be to make Norfang into real life? Basically Norfang is just a regular sniper rifle that shoots exploding bullets. I wonder if actually already have a a sniper rifle that shoots exploding bullets…i bet the US is hiding it in Area 51…

Have you not seen the damage a Barrett .50 does?

That is our Nornfang. Lol

Not very hard as we basically already have that

I’m pretty sure High Explosive-Dual Purpose (HE-DP) rounds are an actual thing. Just take any modern day sniper rifle of a similar caliber and modify it to accept that type of ammunition.

They aren’t hiding it… It’s already a real thing they even have rounds that can penetrate walls/ cover and then explode.

Where have you been?

They are. There are sniper rifles and rounds in real life much deadlier than their halo counterparts. The only thing really futuristic about Halo sniper rifles is their perfectly straight trajectory.

k thanks for your guys feedback.

Although taking into consideration the future armor its up against it would make sense that it does less damage

Realistically it would be difficult to make a Nornfang

14.5x114mm APFSDS HE-AP Rounds would be odd to make

unless it’s just AP-HE and not a APFSDS round anymore.

Besides a normal person shouldn’t be able to shoulder a SRS99-S5 Rifle (the Halo 4 and 5 Sniper rifles) so recoil is in question.

My beef is the Ammo, and it’s Recoil

The sniper is basically a Barrett M107, and it can fire armor piercing explosive rounds already.

I would love to own a paintball/airsoft nornfang. that would be dopppe.

The color scheme with the scope omg someone make me one

They already have one better than the Norfang. Ballistic rounds with tracking and the ability to adjust trajectory with fins—i.e. homing rounds that can easily hit moving targets:
.50 cal sniper homing rounds
Also, someone built a version of the assault rifle used in Aliens 2: Aliens2 rifle

They already have been using programmable rounds in Afghanistan that can kill behind walls: XM25
