Overview
Very popular among veteran players, the weapon features high damage, range, and the ability to attach both muzzle and scope attachments, making it a very good sidearm for the medic, who can then be "dual-purpose" (This weapon can be alternatively used as a "back-up" sniper). The only downsides to this weapon is the low magazine size and low hip accuracy, as well as high recoil.
