T1 Cycler

The  is an assault rifle available to the Terran Republic. It is unlocked by default.

The T1 Cycler, not unlike the NC1 Gauss Rifle and  Pulsar VS1, is designed to serve as a standard all-round weapon, with no exceptionally high stats in exchange for no particularly punishing stats, with the Cycler's high rate-of-fire and large magazine allowing it to serve as a solid jack-of-all-trades rifle.

The T1 Cycler starts with the red dot variant of the RTA Reflex Sight unlocked, as well as the Forward Grip, aiding it in serving as a suitable all-round starter assault rifle for a fresh Combat Medic.
