Tips

It is effective for defending the flag in Capture The Flag.

Counters

Upgrades

Theme

SWAT-Forces Themed

Weapon Setups

As its ammo is easy to deplete, carry a much more mobile weapon to get into ammo pickups quickly.

Trivia

It was previously called 'Elite Rifle'.
The Swat Rifle is based on the real life French FAMAS F1 assault rifle.
It is placed after the AK-48 and the Combat Rifle in the Armory, suggesting a rivalry of sorts, because they are all based off of very well known guns - FAMAS F1, AK-47, and M16A3.
It is one of the few weapons that changes its model as it upgrades.
The firing sound is very similar to the Marksman's firing noise.
As of 9.0.0, the Swat Rifle has a suppressor on its world model but its firing noise shows that it still fires if it wasn't suppressed.
This is one of the most accurate Primary weapons alongside the Casanova and Crystal Laser Cannon. It is so accurate that its crosshairs expand to a very tiny limit meaning that it retains near-perfect accuracy when the fire button is held down.
It was removed in the 12.5.0 update, but it was re-added in the 12.5.3 update due to most likely game system was reverted.
