Model description       : It's a sniping revolver chambered for magnum ammo.  It was featured in 
			  a Gunsmith Cats (my fav japanese manga) issue.  Red13 
			  (vadimred13@hotmail.com) made the skin.  Give him a round of 
			  applause, folks.

Other info              : It will replace the SSG sniping rifle in Action Quake.  1 new sound 
			  too.  It was taken from a TF pak. I have no idea who made it, or who 
			  to contact to give credit to.  The other sound is from the MK23.

Additional Credits to   : Vadim Nuniyants (aka Red13), id Software, all the ppl who made the 
			  tools i use, Ruger Firearms.

Thanks to               : Red13, nice skin :)  The A Team, the aq community in general...etc

* How to use this model *

	1.  Unzip the pakx.pak file to: quake2/action/
	2.  Rename it to pak#.pak where the #sign is 1+the highest number of your other paks.  
	    That is, if your pak with the highest number is pak5.pak, you rename pakx.pak to 
	    pak6.pak

* Construction *

Poly Count              : a whopping 1440 polys!!  eep!  Sorry.  That's down from 1500, though.
			  I'm sure it could be optimized more, but I really wanted to release it.
Vert Count              : 901
Skin Count              : 1
Base                    : none
Editor(s) used          : QME for modeling, QMElight 3.1 for animating and exporting, Q2Modeler 
			  for importing anims and exporting to md2, NST for arranging faces and 
			  shading, SkinEd for touching up the skin, PPMIFLE for touching up the 
			  skin
Known Bugs              : Since a revolver and a rifle are completely different weapons, it was 
			  quite difficult to get the sounds synchronized.  I finally decided to 
			  drop it, and let the sounds occur at default times.
Build/Animation time    : ~2 weeks
