SG 540 SIG (and 542) in obat 92, 84, 82, 68 and 62

For the SG 540 SIG Rifle there is no exact LBM; most of the times the LBM for the SIG 550 is used.
I think LBM 36240 looks more like the actual 540.
But best (in my opinion) is to add an other LBM. So if anybody can/likes to make one?

obat 92 - Paraguay : Unit 174; The LBM shows the SIG 550
obat 92 - Paraguay : Unit 323; LBM shows FN-FAL Weapon is G3 - I think Weapon should be G3 (sorry forgot No)

obat 84 - Nicaragua : Unit 346; same LBM is the one from SIG 550

obat 82 - Ecuador : Unit 379; the same again

obat 68 - Lebanon : no unit uses actaly Weapon 016 (=SG540)

obat 62 - Chad : Units 380...384 ; LBM is SG 550 not 542

So I would change those LBMs into LBM 36240.
It's nothing wrong with those units; I just found those LBM less accurate then they could be...

I agree. If you could maybe set some time asside to do this it would be great. In the mean time those of us who are aware of te problem will take care of it ourselves.

I have pictures, but I have NO idea how to make the LBM files...

Send them over! (or post them here)
I'll make them top-priority on my lbm list, and try to send them back first time next week.
Troops pics work as well.

This are the rifles...

...I also would have some more pictures (for the swiss oob mainly) to be done as LBM - if you would like to ;-)

Thanks for the pics!
I'll look around see if I can find any field pics of those, presumably in Chilean service.
Regarding Swiss lbms, I already have some in store, given I'll have to take the Swiss OOB on soon or late as well. I'll send them up when I can get back to them.
