Function
The Marksman Rifle can fire several bullets at long distances. It is considered the weakest sniping weapon in the game, with its bullets subject to Kevlar armor damage reduction. It can be still employed to confront snipers and other infantry, if the wielder is skilled enough. It does basically no damage to vehicles or buildings. Even on the Master Control Terminal, its damage is rather low.
