        But, you also have to unlock the first sniper rifle first. Then you can get the SF unlock

                Okay I'm in the same spot (sort of) as this dude... I just purchased SF and started playing a few rounds now. I was told you get like 2 free unlocks for the purchase of SF or something like that? Cuz i'm really far from my next rank and can't wait that long to get the L9!

                  thats messed up.
                  what other guns cant i use without the SF booster thing?

                  isnt there a file or something i can get instead of having a friend play as me?

                    I just bought SF, and was surprised to suddenly get four unlocks at the end of my first round (I just made Staff sgt in Vanilla).

                    It's like Christmas in September!

                      The following weapons are only available to SF players:

                      SpecOps: SCAR-L
                      Sniper: L96A1
                      Assault: FN F2000
                      Support: MG36
                      Engineer: MP7
                      Medic: G36E
                      AT: P90

                      As stated previously, as soon as you complete a round of SF you should be able to unlock these weapons.

                          Why do you guys want the L96A1 so much?

                          The M24 is the best sniper in the game..

                          The L96A1 may have thinner crosshairs, but it isn't accurate at all.. there is SO much bullet drop it's not even funny.

                            really? i thought that all the sniper rifles had the exact same amount of bullet drop? and, the noise is less of a bang so that no one can find u most the time. but is it true that it has more bullet drop, or is DICE just saying that. i need an answer from someone who play sniper a lot and has the L96 unlocked.

                              No I am saying that from personal experience..

                              If you go for a headshot on someone that is sitting still, at 100m, and aim DIRECTLY at their head, you will not get the headshot with the L96A1, but you will with the M24.
