Design Notes:
> I originally started this project because I wanted an automatic cannon after seeing a Bofors Cannon, the 40mm one, and quite frankly the shape is simple -- just a rectangle with a barrel. But as I was making it, for 20mm I mean since I already got a lot of these resources, and considering how it would work, I gravitated towards this additional cradle like a lafette mount from the MG42. And with it, I became considerate more and more about it's mechanism, to the point that I was considering why not other faster-firing autocannons since it's just going to be 20mm. But I still deferred to the Bofors because that's still a lot simpler to model, and I could also form the lore around this slower-firing more-powerful round that would make better sense with low ammo-capacity.
> I actually gave up on the stock. I knew it had to be that half-circular stuff from the Oerlikon 20mm, but I could not figure out how to attach it. So fuck it, just a beam. I deferred to the default crescent stock hole, that is of the Oerlikon 20mm.
> I Tried using the Disc-shaped muzzle-brake, that I think was from PTRS, but actually was the Boys Anti-Tank Rifle model. Go figure.
> Sights are a mix of many things: It uses the Mark 3 Reflective Gun Sight for reflex sight; Iron-Sights and Combat-Sight from Bazooka, the Telescopic Scopes are of the PSO1 sight, the shield is new, and Anti-Air is a mix of what I just found on google.
> I also gave up on the many planned legendary and skins. It's just so much of a hassle. I'm not that artsy-fartsy, so I just went ahead with the faction stripes.
