This carbine has one of the longest reaches in the game. The other being the AC-X11 which is also an NC carbine.

When comparing the two, the Razor has faster reload speed, higher muzzle velocity, and slight larger magazine size. If you are looking for satisfying headshots, the AC-X11 is better for players looking for the precise aim on the head of the enemy. The Razor GD-23 is not as accurate, it is not even as accurate as your default AF-19 Mercenary but the muzzle velocity allows for more reliable alpha damage and the reload speed keeps you ready to shoot from the position of cover. As such, the skill ceiling is lower. The low damage per second essentially means you are at a competitive disadvantage in close quarters thus the recommended range is medium as the minimum engagement range.

For engineer class, such a carbine fits with their defensive playstyle and provides the class more practical offense shooting from a distance instead of having to close the distance to attack an enemy which may have better direct combat ability. The light assault class, being mobile, can use shorter ranges of weapons in much more situations.
