Heavy Barrel
A heavy barrel reduces cone of fire bloom by 20% while aiming down sights, but reduces aim down sights movement speed by 20%.
Empire:

The Heavy Barrel is a rail attachment. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

While attached, a heavy barrel reduces the cone-of-fire bloom of the weapon while aimed by 20%. In exchange, the weapon's aimed movement speed multiplier is reduced by 20% down to either 0.4x or 0.6x, for weapons with a base multiplier of 0.5x or 0.75x respectively.

This attachment has no effect on any hip accuracy characteristics, nor does it affect the minimum cones-of-fire of the weapon while aimed.
