Assault Rifle
The Assault Rifle is a weapon with well-rounded stats, as it functions well at any range. It requires the player to keep their crosshair on their opponents to deal its damage. This is the default primary weapon that the player obtains first when joining the game.
Default starter primary, reliable at all ranges.
Paintball Gun
