This adapter adds an alternate fire mode that unleashes a torrent of rounds after a 0.8 second spinup. Two rounds are fired per shot at a higher rate of fire. While the damage per pellet is reduced, overall damage output greatly increases. | |||

The BX Adapter is a rail attachment.
The adapter functions as an underbarrel attachment, adding an alternate firemode with a unique functionality. When the trigger is pulled, the adapter begins firing after an 800ms (0.8s) delay, unloading its magazine two bullets at a time at 750 RPM until the trigger is released or the magazine empty. The adapter can only be fired from the hip, with the aim key serving no function.
The adapter shares its magazine and ammunition pool with its parent weapon, meaning that firing a round from either will deduct a bullet from both firemode's shared magazine, and reloading one will similarly reload the shared magazine.
The adapter is completely unaffected by attachments on the parent weapon—a Hybrid Suppressor will not reduce the sound of the adapter or stop it revealing the shooter on the minimap, and neither KCAP Ammunition nor Soft Point Ammunition have any impact on the adapter's damage, fall-off ranges, or velocity.
To use an underbarrel attachment, press the weapon's Gear Slot hotkey (Gear Slot 1, 1 by default) whilst the parent weapon is held in hand.

History[]
March 30, 2022 Update (The Arsenal Update)
- BX Adapter no longer reduces magazine size, and uses the existing weapon ammo pool.
- BX Adapter now consumes two rounds per shot.
- BX Adapter's refire rate from 60ms to 80ms.
- BX Adapter no longer prevents barrel slot items from being equipped.
Dev Note: These changes increase the usefulness of the BX Adapter in far more situations, and prevent it from harming the base usefulness of the weapon as it had before.
- BX Adapter icon changed.
- BX Adapter received an updated tooltip.
- BX Adapter no longer reduces ammo capacity.
- BX Adapter reload speed from 2.25sec./2.92sec. to 2sec./2.6sec. (Same as the default reload.)
- BX Adapter can no longer be equipped at the same time as the Hybrid Suppressor.
Dev Note: We decided to keep the BX Adapter a niche attachment while fixing some quality of life issues it created.
- Added to the game.
