Note:		Available as part of Fourth Anniversary Bundle.

The GR-22 is an assault rifle available to the New Conglomerate. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The GR-22, similar to the H-V45 and TAR, is a close-range assault rifle that sacrifices a large amount of accuracy and damage range for amongst the highest close-range damage-per-second in its class and exceptional mobility.

Similar to those other two weapons, the GR-22 features a tight hip cone-of-fire, as well as access to an Advanced Laser Sight. With this in addition to the weapon's 0.75x movement speed modifier while aiming-down-sight, in contrast to the typical 0.5x multiplier found on most weapons, the GR-22 finds itself as an exceptionally mobile weapon platform, as a trade-off for heavy penalties the weapon suffers when fighting at range.
