advanced battle rifle

Rifles chambered in .308, .45, or 5.56, some with underbarrel flashers, grenade launchers, or shotguns. Swap different magazines, scopes, or muzzle mods you carry without a weapons workbench.

advanced battle rifle

There are 12 basic types: .308 basic. 308 with flame launcher. 308 with grenade launcher. 308 with shotgun. 45 basic. 45 with flame launcher. 45 with grenade launcher. 45 with shotgun. 5.56 basic. 5.56 with flame launcher. 5.56 with grenade launcher. 5.56 with shotgun.

Once you have one of these, here's what you do for it:

Five different scopes, including night vision and aim point

Four different magazines, including a 100-round double drum (like the ACR Remington is developing for the U.S. Army)

Four different muzzles, none, light bayonet, regular bayonet and suppressor. (The bayonet cannot be used on underbarrel mounted rifles.

Any of these mods can be swapped out in the wild without a weapon workbench. Even in battle.

You can easily switch between full-auto, semi-auto, or even a lower barrel if your rifle has one. I recommend setting a hotkey to toggle.

Where can you get this fantastic weapon?

At your local Red Rocket! Well, at least the one near the shelter. (see picture) There you will find a .308 Common Basic Advanced Battle Rifle.

You can craft all mods at the standard weapon workbench. Keep in mind that you can only swap mods in the field if you have a mod in your inventory and use a holotape.

Also remember that slings are not mods. You have to find an advanced battle rifle that already has the lower barrel installed. Speaking of additional Advanced Battle Rifles, there is a bunker in the northeastern area of ​​the map filled with Advanced Battle Rifles, mods, and ammo. But I'll leave it to you to find out for yourself.
