The Carnage AR is a very different weapon from your typical NC weapon that is more precise with fine-tuned bursting. The strong and erratic horizontal doesn't reward short bursts as much as they do. As such I wouldn't recommend you explicitly go for headshots unless you are in very close range. Instead, this assault rifle is about spraying your enemies with longer than usual bursts. The horizontal recoil bounces back and forth across the enemy's chest. Combined with the expanding cone of fire and high rate of fire, it randomly gets headshots.

An important feature to compensate for the lack of pinpoint accuracy is the mobility of the weapon. Namely the 0.75X aiming down sights movement multiplier and tighter hip-fire. One of the more unusual attachments is the compensator. The purpose of the compensator on this weapon is to lower the vertical recoil per second to give long bursts at a minimum of 5-shots per burst as to keep the muzzle from climbing too hard and the erratic recoil does its thing.

Overall, the Carnage AR is a very simple but also good weapon. The GR-22 is better at close-quarters but the Carnage AR offers more spray accuracy at longer ranges with quicker reload speed and more damage per bullet between 33.5 and 38.5 meters.
