A shiny versatile weapon, but nothing special in any category (other than 0.75x ADS speed I guess). It fires as fast a normal TR weapon with the same damage, and only drops off one damage tier at a longer range than most weapons of similar status (take GR-22, 143 -> 112 to 60 m, although I still like the GR-22 more). Accurate and controllable, with a good muzzle velocity of 580 m/s. Competent at close quarters (don't tread on higher DPS weapons, and there will be a lot of them. Most notable are the Serpent and Cycler) and enough to make some medium range targets reconsider the engagements. While yes, compared to the TR's T1 Cycler, its magazine size is a handicap, but there is a speedy reload to think about. Its got a tight hipfire, which means you can add a Adv. Forward Grip instead of Adv. Laser Sight (never met a weapon that has the ability to equip either of these) without terrible loss. Its got nice recoil stats.

Therefore, I find it as a very great NC weapon, a one well worth the cost and recommend for any beginner. The GR-22 is a favorite for me personally, but this was way easier to learn on. Now if this guy had options for High Velocity or Soft Point...
