I modified the new rifle skin because I didn't like the colouring of the wood, so I did a bit of editing, mostly putting it through various filters, and I think it looks much cooler. Although, this is just my opinion. If anyone wants it I'll upload it to quadropolis (or akimbo).
Here's a screenshot:

Pl0x comment & rate.
Added some colour to the skin:
It looks a lot like the original, but faded and with older metal. Me <3s effects. Might actually do some real image editing now though.

Kirin - because the wood is ugly. I even experimented with making the metal parts look rusty. I could upload a version with rust too, but I like my modification, even though, as you say it's just messing with the skin. Might add a bit more colour to the wood, to make it still look slightly like wood.
Uploading to Akimbo now, I'll edit the post and add a download link in 5 mins.

the carabine original skin doesn't look cool, they can do better wood efect... and i don't like yours too, because you just modified the actual skin and didn't created your own. I don't see where your modification are better than the actual one... try do better dude ! ;)

Deathstar, it's not the wood, just the colouring of it. If someone can provide a UV map I'll happily make a texture. I just can't seem to get the UV map right in my software (mm3d).
(It keeps adding the hands in with the gun on the map)
