Low recoil, mediocre damage. Great for low rounds!
The FG42 is a German WW2 era Assault Rifle which can be obtained from both Wallbuy and the Mystery Box.
As an Assault Rifle the gun is fairly lacking compared to other weapons of its type having some of the lowest base damage stats of the Assault Rifles category and even having lower damage stats than the majority of Submachine Guns.
The FG42 also has the same RPM as the AK47 at 700 RPM making it not very fast firing. On top of all of that the FG42 is also fairly expensive for a wallbuy costing 1500 points to buy and 750 to refill, (Compared to the STG44 which only costs 1200 and 600 refill). Due to these facts the FG42 often gets overshadowed by anything else within the Assault Rifles category and the Submachine Gun category making the weapon and unpopular choice overall among players.
The FG42's major upsides is its reserve ammo capacity and the fact that it is a wallbuy making the ammo for the weapon readily available and lasts much longer compared to other weapons of its type.
