Swift Sniper Modifications

Founder
Alexander Thomas Swift was born on Harvest in the year 2489 to a family of harvesters and farmers. He grew up knowing little about Harvest and the rest of the planets under human control. In fact, the first contact he had with the outside world was when a strange spaceship landed in his livestock enclosure. Mintues later, hundreds more landed and chaos broke out. Swift and his family were among the lucky few to escape Harvest, but he remembered that day for the rest of his life. Several years later, he joined the Marines to aid in the fight for Harvest as a part of Battlegroup 4. He suvived on board the CMA Hercales, but noticed how ineffective the destroyer's rounds were against the Covenant ships. From that day on, he thought deeply about that. The one weapon he noticed as being the most effective was the sniper rifle. Swift became an officer and retired. He devoted the rest of his life to making custom sniper parts. He made his first production rifle, the Swift 290, in 2559, at the age of 70. He died on Earth on January 22nd, 2583, of natural causes.
