In DayZ, these firearms have good range, damage and rate of fire. The range, recoil and sway can be impacted with various weapon attachments. Because DayZ Assault Rifles are some of the most powerful firearms in the game, they are usually found in high tier loot spawn areas and are considered good loot.
In essence, an Assault Rifle is a type of weapon with rapid firing, intermediate cartridges, selective fire, a detachable magazine, and a small size. This provides a tremendous deal of flexibility in a variety of combat circ*mstances.
