Tips

 * If the player holds down the fire button it will fire a three-round burst, and continue to do so as long as the fire button is in use.
 * If the player rapidly taps the fire button it will behave similar to an automatic rifle and increase the fire rate to that of the Swat Rifle, while being semi-automatic.
 * Quickly tapping the button once releases only one shot compared to the burst of three from holding it.
 * This gun is useful in taking down weakened targets with its moderate damage and fire rate and low recoil.

Counters
