Raw Reference Notes

From the 7 Aug 2026 closed alpha (25 weapons). Bulkhead have confirmed 37 weapons at Early Access launch, so this list is incomplete and any entry may change or be cut. No official stat sheet has ever been released.

Damage/muzzle velocity are the platform's own baseline figures for this build. RPM has never been published for this weapon even though the source frames damage+RPM as its "two base figures" — only damage actually appears. The only magazine listed is a 100-round box, sold as an attachment rather than stated as this weapon's fixed capacity, so mag size is left blank rather than assumed.
