Assault carbine expanded

A magazine-fed, compact automatic weapon with a high rate of fire and so a high damage-per-second (DPS) value and a comparatively low spread, though this can be offset by its low base damage of 13, the second lowest of any rifle in the game. It is one of the most accurate automatic weapons in the game and can be effectively used in close and medium range combat. When used in V.A.T.S., it will shoot a 5-round burst for a cost of 20 Action Points.

The assault carbine uses 5mm rounds, boasting an armor piercing effect of -10 DT, and 5mm AP rounds, which have a -25 DT effect. These make the weapon highly effective against medium armored or heavily armored targets, as only power armor possesses more than 25 DT. In addition, 5mm HP rounds have only a x2 DT multiplier, compared to the x3 multiplier of other HP rounds (all effects as of patch 1.3.0.452). The 5mm ammunition is typically sold by most merchants in moderate-to-large quantities.

The assault carbine can be equipped with an extended magazine, identical to that used on the regular marksman carbine except with a black rather than aluminum finish.

Durability[]

The assault carbine (GRA) can fire approximately 3,745 standard rounds, the equivalent of 157 reloads, or 125 reloads when modified with extended magazines, from full condition before breaking. When modified with a forged receiver, it can fire a total of about 4,983 standard rounds, the equivalent of 208 reloads, or 167 reloads when modified with both the forged receiver and extended magazines.
