Additional weapons not in list.

[Mobhack]

you will not get offered any weapons not in the army's 255 possible weapon slots. Each army has its own little weapon database of its own as you know - it is not global. Check the army in Mobhack - and search for "drag" in the weapons tab. If nothing such is there - it obviously cannot be made available.

However, scenarios keep their own internal list of weapons actually used, dereferenced to a new weapon index and original army ID. It's nasty and complex, but it does allow for the use of allied nations in a scenario. In which case - and I have never checked that out - you may be able to short-circuit it by buying allies who have the Dragunov available to them, then playing around with that.

However - since the statistics are the same (It's not an anti-material rifle, just a generic sniper rifle) - all you will get for a lot of hacking about is a cute new weapon name for your sniper rifle armed unit.
