Real Name: M16A3 / M16A4 Standard US Military issue for over 40 years, the M16 has a modular design capable of accepting grenade launchers, flashlights, and lasers attachments. Renowned for its accuracy and innovative new design, but not for its reliability, a stigma it has not shaken off to this day, despite anecdotes for cleaning it. Unsurprisingly, both SWAT armories and local Navy/Marine Corps outposts yielded some fully automatic M16A3s and some M16A4 that was subsequently modified by local gunsmiths to fire fully automatic again. Good for a "last hope" weapon, but ammo isn't cheap. Despite the graphic of the M16 showing one, the under barrel M203 grenade launcher is unusable and only serves to aid its aesthetics.

Real Name: FN FNC The FNC (Fusil Nouveau Type Carabine) is a 5.56mm assault rifle developed by the Belgian arms manufacturer Fabrique Nationale (FN) of Herstal and introduced in the late 1970s. The FNC is a selective fire weapon that uses a gas-driven piston operating system (with a long-stroke piston) and a rotary bolt locking mechanism equipped with two locking lugs that engage corresponding recesses in the barrel extension. The bolt is rotated and unlocked by the interaction of the bolt's cam pin with a camming guide contained in the bolt carrier. Overall, the mechanism strongly resembles the Kalashnikov but adapted to the more advanced design and production methods. Added October 11th, 2008.

Real Name: SA80 L85A1 The SA80 (Small Arms for the 1980s) is a British family of 5.56mm small arms. It is a selective-fire, gas-operated assault rifle. Elements of its design, in particular, the bullpup configuration, come from the earlier EM-2 rifle. The L85 rifle variant of the SA80 family has been the standard issue service rifle of the British Armed Forces since 1987, replacing the L1A1 variant of the FN FAL. The improved L85A2 remains in service today. The remainder of the family comprises the L86 Light Support Weapon, the short-barrelled L22 carbine, and the L98 Cadet rifle. Added October 11th, 2008.

Real Name: Steyr Armee Universal Gewehr The Steyr Aug is an Austrian made 5.56mm assault rifle, designed in the 1960s by Steyr Mannlicher GmbH & Co KG. The Steyr AUG (Armee-Universal-Gewehr - Universal Army Rifle) was adopted by the Austrian army in 1978 as the StG 77, where it replaced the 7.62mm StG 58 automatic rifle (a license-built FN FAL). It was very famous for its then-futuristic look. In production since 1978, it is the standard small arm of the Austrian Bundesheer and various national police units. The name of this weapon was changed from 'Steyr AUG' to 'Stell AUG' on January 24th, 2010.

The Heckler & Koch G3 is a selective-file battle rifle developed by the West German Heckler & Koch and the Spanish state-owned CETME. The standard issue rifle for the German Bundeswehr until 1997, it still sees widespread sevice to this day all around the world. The G3 was exported to over 70 countries and has been built under license in over 15 countries. Many variants, including the PSG-1 and the MSG-90 along with countless locally-built copies, have been derived from the G3. Release: Feburary 6th, 2024

Real Name: FN FAL The Fusil Automatique Léger ("Light Automatic Rifle") or FAL is a self-loading, selective fire battle rifle produced by the Belgian armaments manufacturer Fabrique Nationale de Herstal (FN). During the Cold War, it was adopted by many North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) countries, with the notable exception of the United States. It is one of the most widely used rifles in history, having been used by more than 90 countries. The FAL was predominantly chambered for the 7.62×51mm NATO round, and because of its prevalence and widespread use among the armed forces of many NATO countries, it was nicknamed "The right arm of the Free World" during the Cold War. As it is popular with police - surprise - Fairview's police had a fair amount of these weapons. |

The legendary Automatic Kalashnikov Model 47 was one of the first true assault rifles. Due to its relative cheapness and incredible reliability, it is by far the most widely used assault rifle in the world. With its powerful 7.62x39mm round, the AK-47 can penetrate fabric armor, as well as penetrate light cover to hit targets hiding behind it. Though later versions, such as the AK-74 use a fragmenting 5.45x39mm round, this classic variant doesn't.

Real Name: M4 Carbine A shortened variant of the M16, the M4 was commonly used by the U.S. military since the early 1990s. Both lighter and shorter than its predecessor, the M4 almost completely replaced the M16 in the US Army. Unfortunately, the majority of these weapons were thought to be stockpiled at armories outside of Fairview when the outbreak occurred -- until soldiers uncovered a previously-unnoticed cache of them in the back rooms of an abandoned Fairview arsenal. Since then, gunsmiths have been scrambling to convert the copies of this weapon found in the many Army supply trucks scattered throughout the city. Added February 18th, 2013.

Designed for special forces operations that favor stealth, the AS Val is a Soviet selective-fire assault rifle featuring an integrated suppressor. Firing 9x39 mm subsonic ammunition, the AS Val shares around 70% of it's components with the VSS Vintorez sniper rifle and is typically fed from a 20 round magazine. 10 and 30 round magazines are also available.

A modified AS-VAL manufactured at Camp Valcrest, issued to apprentice exiles. Key improvements include reforged body with Picatinny rails to house modern red dot sight in place of the outdated PSO-1, improved suppressor that can handle more powerful munitions while maintaining stealth, and most importantly a foregrip to handle the weapon's overwhelming fire rate.

The Hammerhead 47 is one of the first fully automatic weapons capable of chambering the recently discovered 14mm rifle round. Essentially a discarded AK rifle that's been souped up with an ACOG sight and an assortment of random bayonets, the Hammerhead is pretty much the big brother to the Uziel 14mm submachine gun. A notable weakness of the Hammerhead is its lack of controllability - while it can, true to its name, hammers zombies and anything else in its path with a relentless stream of 14mm rounds, its poor accuracy and absurd recoil means much more strength will be needed to control the Hammerhead than with any other assault rifle.

Considered a "bootleg" copy of the legendary Amethyst Raider, the Amber Raider has found its use against the different types of infected that plague Fairview, equipped with almost the same features as its superior counterpart (3 burst firing system and an extended magazine of 99 rounds with rapid reloading). What characterizes this "copycat" is its use of the 9x39mm cartridge, instead for the more devastating and lethal 14.5x114mm, as well as its lack of AP system and obviously its body made of amber (again, for unknown reasons) and a nickel-like material. Even with these differences and "disadvantages" the Amber Raider has proven to be a lethal weapon in the hands of a skilled survivor capable of going toe to toe with the more dangerous mutants that roams Fairview.

The classic AK-47 wound up being chosen for conversion to the N-9/2025 round thanks to its simple mechanism and reliability, things greatly appreciated in the post-apocalyptic world where mud, blood and a lack of spare parts are simply facts of life. The conversion work included rechambering the gun for the heavier 7.62x51mm NATO reused from the X-Garand, creating a 100 round AK drum mag, and swapping the existing barrel with a heavier one for increased accuracy and heat tolerance. The result is a RPK-esque weapon that allows the survivor to maintain stable, continuous fire either on foot or from a stationary position, without having to compensate as much for recoil when aiming.

Compact shape, a 3-burst firing system with an AP (acronym for armor piercing) property, accompanied by an extended quick-reload magazine with a capacity of 99 rounds and chambered with the glorious 14.5x114mm are some of the qualities that this curious and strange, yet powerful assault rifle possesses. Made of an incomprehensible compound based on amethyst (this for reasons obviously unknown) and lightweight titanium has positioned the Amethyst Raider as a brutal option against the infected of Fairview as well as the different groups of bandits that roam this desolated city, thanks to its armor-piercing ability. Useful when pitted against infecteds who have evolved armor and exoskeletons (like the ones seen on the southeastern frontier) as well as survivors sporting some of the high-end armours available on the market.

The A10 Bull Shark was a relatively unknown AR-15 clone from a forgotten manufacturer, utilizing a novel 14mm cartridge said to be based on the .50 Beowulf. Originally advertised as a vehicle- and power-armor-buster due to its enormous caliber, the prototype cartridge failed to gather interest from any military or police branch, all of whom simply are more content with the versatility and compactness of underbarrel grenade launchers or the sheer power of anti-materiel rifles and MANPATS. In recent days, A10 blueprints and copies were discovered in an abandoned warehouse in Southeast Fairview, allowing the cartridge to be reverse engineered and the A10 to be put back into service again. As the cartridge has a much shorter length than the available 14.5x114mm, engineers have instead crafted it from spent .55 pistol casings, with a soft-point lead containing N-8/2035 gel core.
