The T32 Bull is a light machine gun available to the Terran Republic. It is unlocked through purchase with Certification Points or Daybreak Cash.

The T32 Bull offers a platform that trades a noticeable amount of damage output and magazine size for improvements to both aimed and hip accuracy and recoil, higher muzzle velocity, and very low damage fall-off—combined with a very quick reload speed for a Terran light machine gun.

Optic
HS/NV Scope (1x) 49 OR 30		Nanite Systems' HS/NV scope has no magnification, but provides high contrast outlines to nearby objects and illuminates nearby soldiers.
RTA Reflex Sight (1x) 49 OR 30		The TR's Rapid Target Acquisition sight provides no magnification, but uses a clear red dot sight for close-combat situations. More reticles for this scope available, see full article.
MH2 Reflex Sight (2x) 49 OR 30		The Terran MH2 features 2x magnification inside of a holographic red dot sight, giving it the advantage in urban combat situations. More reticles for this scope available, see full article.
DMO (3.4x) 49 OR 30		Equipped with a combination chevron/crosshair reticle and 3.4x magnification capabilities, the TR's Designated Marksman Optics functions well at many ranges.
HDS (3.4x) 49 OR 30		Using a red dot reticle with 3.4x optical magnification, the TR's Holographic Dot Sight performs well in close and mid-range combat scenarios.
TMS (4x) 49 OR 30		Sharpshooters have long preferred the Terran Marksman Scope, praising its simple 4x magnified crosshair for its versatility and efficiency.
ACS (4x) 49 OR 30		The Terran Republic's Advanced Combat Scope utilizes a triple chevron reticle and 4x magnification, making it a good choice for all-around use.

Barrel
Compensator 49 OR 100		A compensator redirects gases upward, reducing vertical recoil by 30%, and increasing hipfire cone of fire by 15%. The added sound pressure causes the player to show on the minimap 35m farther away.
Flash Suppressor 49 OR 100		A flash suppressor makes the shooter less visible to the enemy, but increases the range at which you appear on enemy minimaps by 15 meters.
Heavy Barrel 49 OR 100		A heavy barrel reduces cone of fire bloom by 20% while aiming down sights, but reduces aim down sights movement speed by 20%.
Short Barrel 49 OR 100		This shortened barrel reduces cone of fire bloom by 40% when firing from the hip, and increases vertical recoil by 20% while aiming down sights.
Suppressor 49 OR 100		The weapon's muzzle flash and noise generation is reduced, and the player no longer appears on the minimap when firing. In exchange, the weapon's damage falls off 20 meters sooner and bullet velocity is reduced by 15%.

Rail
Angled Forward Grip 49 OR 100		An angled forward grip reduces the vertical recoil of the first shot in a burst by 60%, but increase the side to side recoil of a weapon by 10%.
Darklight Flashlight 49 OR 100		The rail mounted Darklight Flashlight can illuminate hostile cloaked infiltrators and dark areas but the light can give away your position. The light can be turned on and off with Toggle Attachment hotkey.
Forward Grip 49 OR 100		A forward grip increases control of the weapon, reducing horizontal recoil by 25%, but increases equip time by 0.15 sec.
Laser Sight 49 OR 100		A laser sight increases the user's hipfire accuracy by 33%.

Ammo
High Velocity Ammunition 49 OR 100		High Velocity Ammunition increases the weapon's projectile velocity by 10% and minimum damage range by 20 meters, but reduces the weapon's maximum damage range by 2 meters.
KCAP Ammunition 99 OR 200		KCAP ammunition removes the legshot damage penalty, and increases damage to the leg area by 20%, but decreases headshot damage by 50%.
Soft Point Ammunition 49 OR 100		Soft Point Ammunition increases the weapon's maximum damage range by 5 meters, but reduces its projectile velocity by 10%.

Damage Fall-off

_{Stats in yellow are with Soft Point Ammunition, and stats in orange are with High Velocity Ammunition.}

• 143 before 10 meters (15 meters) (8 meters)
• 125 after 65 meters (65 meters) (85 meters)
