Hello everyone! Once again I am filling in for the Armsday Guru, Dannycteris (who we all miss dearly! Seriously, where the hell is he?!)!
Be sure to check out my somewhat In-Depth Video for those who want to know why I picked certain rolls, as well some visual aid, and more info other than just the rolls.
This week’s Armsday is…moderate.
Could be better. Not as awful as last week’s however.
Omolon continues to disappoint, Hakke seems to be hiring former Omolon employees, Suros barely has a showing once again.
I apologize I did not get all of last week’s packages. Due to mandatory overtime at my job, and Iron Banner I lost track of time and failed to place my orders. (Augh!)
As always…
All recommendations are my opinion. If you see a Roll you like and/or fits your playstyle…please get it.
I lean my Recommendations to Static Performance vs Situational Performance.
IE: Gun will perform the same in all situations vs Overperforming/Underperforming in other situations.
Remember, the goal is to have fun.
My recommendations are mainly PVE based and I do not PVP religiously. I may on occasion consider a gun for PVP but you’re probably better off not taking my advice on PVP.
I am also trying a new format, please let me know your thoughts! Did it help any?
Please post your rolls and I will update this OP with them & give credit where it is due!

Redeem or Reserve? Redeem. None of these rolls are good. This is a VERY GOOD HC. Can have much better rolls. Patience is a Virtue. However you can reorder it this week. So, buy one, dismantle it for marks, and reorder.

Redeem or Reserve? Reserve. You can live without any of these rolls. Roll 3 can get some good range, and as an Omolon it has wonderful stability. But this gun can be much more. Worth the wait.

Headseeker
Zen Moment
Single Point Sling/Hand Loaded/Oiled Frame

Unflinching
Single Point Sling/Fitted Stock/Hand-Laid Stock
Roll 3:

Recommendation: Roll 3
Tired of Waiting: Um...why have you not gotten Roll 3?!
Worth not Redeeming? Redeem!!!
Pardon my lack of sleep. I looked at a God Roll and paid it NO mind. Roll 3 is a definitive God Roll.
Huge shout out to [b][u]Slothee[/u][/b] for pointing this out and making me look at this again. I'd completely overlooked roll 3 and just how useful it would be in my half asleep stupor.

[b][u]Suros[/u][/b]

Perfect Balance/Casket Mag
Snapshot/Injection Mold
Counterbalance
Recommendation: Roll 2 or Roll 3 (Roll 2 for Ranged Combat, Roll 3 for Stability)
Tired of Waiting: N/A
Redeem or Reserve? Redeem. Could have much better rolls. But Roll 2 is quite good, a Jack of All Trades in my opinion. But Roll 3 is a nice stable AF. Choose based on playstyle!
You can reorder this gun, so why pass up on Roll 2 or 3?

[u]Omolon Uzume RR4:[/u] 50/50
Low Impact Sniper Rifle. Does surprisingly high amounts of damage considering its impact. A very good Sniper truth be told, easy to handle. 5 in the magazine. If you do NOT have an Eirene Order, this is worth giving a shot. A reliable, beginners sniper for sure.
Looks to me like Omolon is going out of business and is having a…*grins* [i]Liquid[/i]ation Sale.
*dives for cover*
