An update increased the damage to the lower torso in semi-auto mode, making it possible to get a 3 shot kill if you hit anywhere except the legs (more specifically, you can hit 1 shot to the legs out of the 3 hits). The TTK when you get a 3 shot kill is very fast at 240 ms. Since this weapon shines when used in semi-auto mode, the strength of this weapon depends on how fast you can tap fire, but it is very powerful if you can handle it.

This build includes a larger magazine to decrease the number of reloads needed, while also improving Recoil Control and Mobility. If you don't mind a lower ADS Speed, you may want to replace one of the attachments with a Barrel to increase the Range.
