Defiling Democracy's Ceremonial Rifle: the Constitution

General

This is for fun and should not be taken seriously, altering the Constitution in any non-standardized way is of course an act of Treason and should not be done, any of these modifications would be highly illegal even for Helldivers

Scope Mount: a 4x to 10x scope on an offset mount so as to not get in the way of the bolt's operation

Bolt Upgrades: an Arctic style well lubricated bolt would increase the rate the bolt can be cycled, cutting a slot into the bolt will allow stripper clips to be used vastly increasing the speed the internal non-detachable magazine can be refilled (you can still load the rounds normally if you want to)

Internal Magazine: making the magazine fully detachable would make too much sense for Super Earth so it is expanded to a double stacked 10 rounds that now slightly sticks out the bottom of the rifle, this may or may not negatively affect the reliability of the rifle

Stock: adding a cheek rest may improve the aiming down the sights scope experience, a small stock bag for preloaded stripper clips can improve spare ammunition capacity

Muzzle Device: a suppressor does not make sense with a full-sized rifle round, a muzzle break on a bolt action might save your shoulder but as a video game you would not notice it, flash hider however can reduce the muzzle flash which would be more valuable for stay on target without blinding yourself every time the weapon is fired

Under Barrel: A Bipod can offer stability while prone but a laser range finder is not very useful for Helldivers that know how to tag enemies as it gives a changing and accurate current distance to target, laser pointer...optimistic, no bayonet as this is a bolt action precision sniper rifle but could be fixed into position via weapon wheel and removed when not needed

Barrel: Super Match would give marginally more accuracy at extreme ranges but without super match grade ammunition it would be unlikely to be noticeable

Ammunition- Firing the standard issue FMJ rounds gives it its standard performance, Steel Cored High Velocity Armor Piercing rounds would give it +1AP but 30% less damage with slightly less bullet drag, Ballistic Capped Hollow Point rounds fly like the FMJ rounds but have 30% more damage per shot (does full damage to weak points) but at the cost of -1 AP, APHEIT rounds do full damage to weak points and have +1 AP but do 40% less damage overall and may ignite flammable objects, High Velocity Total Metal Jacket High Mass rounds are modified rounds fully encased in a hard steel jacket and filled a classified hard high frangible metal that fly at higher velocities and have less drag on the projectile and has +2AP and does 3 times damage to weak points but does 15% less damage and is only available via special issue due to the use of classified metal and the high production costs as well as less rounds being carried overall due to its increased weight

Would you use this highly illegal and defiled Constitution Rifle or deny the treason and have the democracy officer actually make approval sounds at you?
