Heavy Rifle

Bringing power and precision together, the Heavy Rifle offers extreme stopping power with accuracy to match.

The Heavy Rifle is a formidable assault weapon featured in Grand Theft Auto Online. Known for its high damage output and precision, this rifle is perfect for players who prefer overwhelming firepower in medium- to long-range engagements. Its strong recoil is balanced by its stopping power, making it ideal for those who want a reliable weapon in intense firefights.

Weapon Overview

Design

The Heavy Rifle is designed to deliver massive firepower. Its bulky frame and large magazine make it a weapon of choice for sustained engagements, while its longer barrel allows for better accuracy at distance. Although heavier and slower than other rifles, the trade-off is its immense damage, making it lethal in the right hands.

Performance

In GTA Online, the Heavy Rifle excels at medium- to long-range combat, dealing significant damage per shot. However, its high recoil requires careful control to maintain accuracy during sustained fire. While slower to handle compared to lighter rifles, its raw power compensates, making it capable of quickly neutralizing enemies, especially in intense combat scenarios.

Customization

The Heavy Rifle can be customized with a variety of attachments such as scopes, grips, and extended magazines. These attachments help mitigate its recoil and improve accuracy, making it even more effective for players who prefer to engage enemies at a distance.
