Overview[1]
The Mare's Leg is one of the most powerful and accurate rifles in the game, capable of dealing an insane 116% damage while enemy is in range to the head and 60% damage to the torso to unarmored targets (3-1 shots to down an unarmored player). It has one of the longest ranges in the game capable of dealing the most damage at range. This weapon is also slightly decent in CQC due to its high damage which allows it to instantly down someone with a headshot however it is advised to refrain from doing so due to the slow firerate and wide hipfire spread. The Mare's Leg (And other Snipers) has a unique feature which allows other players to spot the sniper more easily. Scoping in the sniper will emit a bright white light (Glint) on the other end of the scope making the user easier to spot by normal players.

Usage & Tactics
This is the first sniper ever revealed to the public and due to its bulky nature and slow fire-rate it is recommended to have a support weapon rather than use this by itself. Although exceptionally good at assassination, you're most likely going to be targeted. If you want to make sure you can protect yourself, it is recommended to buy a weapon that excels in short-range combat, or use it as an Hit & Run weapon, changing positions constantly around the target.
Pros & Cons
Extremely high damage. Has extreme long ranges capabilities. Cheap refill for a sniper. Can be found in gold & red Weapon Crates. Surprisingly good in CQC. Very high armor penetration. Expensive. Emits a white glint when aiming in which can be seen anywhere. Subpar reserve ammo. Slow fire rate. Has high bullet and damage drop.
Patch history
It is the only item added in the V1.1 Winter Update that stayed in the shop, although needing 20 more levels to unlock past the update. Before 1.3 Revamp update, the Mare was unable to pre-unlock or rent. The Mare is the first publicly available Lever-Action/Long range gun. It's name and appearance is based off its real life counterpart Mare's Leg. Although the game variant have a picatinny rail handguard with a sniper scope equipped on top. The weapon itself is actually a shortened variant of the Winchester Model 1892. Buffed to one shot head-shot on unarmored player on 3/24/21, this is true, however. When in long ranges, the damage fall-off ruins this effect. The Mare originally didn't have bullet drop as the sight was off-Centered Making it seem like (This was found out after Players used a Custom Cross-hair with The mare). This is changed after 1.3, with fixed cross-hairs and bullet drop. There is a variant of the Mare known as the Dixie Rifle, which is the same gun but with a longer barrel and the scope taken off and has a gold finish. It is much more powerful and is currently restricted to Admins. Prior to the V1.4 update, the Dixie Rifle could dismember limbs and explode heads, but has since been seemingly nerfed to no longer dismember limbs, though can still explode heads. As of the 1.6 update addition of weapon crates, the Mare can be found inside red crates very rarely. Category:Guns
