Currently the t21 looks very dumb if your trying to snipe something. Can we get a t21 that has a stock/scope, slower speed and higher dmg? The older version with be the gunner version, but i still think it needsa stock due to massive kick

unfortunately don't expect stocks or scopes anytime soon on our weapons. During the last few builds they broke the weapon appearance customization and decided to disable the code till a later date (I read never)

You can get a T21 to appear with a stock and a different muzzle.But don't expect to find any on vendors very often. Factory made weapons are created with the default appearance. To get those items to show up on any weapon the weaponsmith has to hand make everything. Just the final assemply stage on a T21 takes a while when hand crafting so many WS's just make factory runs. Another reason is it takes about 5 minutes on average to make a 40/40 stock. It's MUCH easier to spend that time to make a schematic and run 1000 of those in a factory.

T21 is NOT a sniper rifle. It's a machine gun.

T-21 is a bipod mounted squad automatic blaster. Designed to be a single man unit, but also able to hook into a power generator for fully automatic fire. For sniping, look somewhere else. This thing is meant to make the enemy keep their head down, or blow it off if they don't.

Ack, I read that the "visual" looks of the weapons was only temporarily disabled.
I thought they said they do plan on putting them all back. Unless you read something different.

They said something similar about the M-16, until Vietnam saw a sniper version of it.
trouble is..the T21 is more comparable to the SAW, then an M16
a SAW? pfft, doesn't do it justice. Maybe a 240b, but probably a .50cal is more likely.

They do intend on putting them back... just not anytime soon. It won't be befor eth eCURB is released, and there are other non-cosmetic priorities that will likely keep them busy for quite a while before they get around to looking at this one again. In short, I wouldn't hold your breath...
