Trivia
Edit
- The end of the bound strap on the midsection of the gun has movement/cloth physics similar to Syandanas; it flaps loosely whilst moving and firing the weapon.
- Aesthetically, the rifle appears to be heavily based on the M16 assault rifle, with its filename data referring to it as the "GrineerM16Rifle", reinforcing the connection.
- This is the first official automatic Grineer Assault Rifle introduced in the game (following the burst-fire
Hind rifle), as the
Grakata is considered to be a submachine gun and the
Gorgon is more of a Light Machine Gun.
- The weapon was introduced in Update 11.5.
