Tried WeaponOffset in the UT3Weap_ViperGun class but doesn't seem to have any effect that I can notice. Any suggestions on what else could be tried or why WeaponOffset doesn't work for this but does for the Manta?

While it's not true to UT3 I'm not so sure we shouldn't go with the dual fire because gun barrels appear to be on both sides of the Viper's front when looking at it closely suggesting it was meant to have wider dual fire but wasn't finished, just something to think about it perhaps.
