Absolutely humongous clip size.
Very accurate whilst prone. If you're seriously using this weapon, prone is the way to go.
Isn't concerned with headshots. Will shred foes rapidly from great distances.
Technically this is a Machine Gun. The only one. We didn't want to dedicate a web page to it. ☹️
Horribly inaccurate at full-auto fire when not prone. No, there is absolutely no other option but to hold down the fire button like a lunatic.
Extremely loud. The screaming doesn't help.
Very versatile build, that focuses on movement speed and reducing recoil and reload times. Highly recommended!
