AK000 Assault Rifle

Update 1.2 30.06.25:

Fixed performance. No more horrible FPS drops because of high fire rate and amount of projectiles (calculations). Thank you to everyone who highlighted this issue.
Aim down sights now adjusted to nice position. Stock isn't in view anymore.
Reduced damage on base AK000 by 30%.
Removed fire rate variability for performance stability.
Reload speed is now vanilla and just normal.
Increased EM damage on Wafflemaker barrel.
Fixed Annihilator rounds producing White Hot effect.

High-powered assault rifle. Customization enthusiasts will love the extensive tinkering this platform allows. Adjust it to suit your needs and playstyle.

Major variants include: -CQC/Storming. For extra warm "welcoming parties". -Sniper. To show off your ballistic supremacy. -Big Game Hunter. To have walls in your mansion covered with trophies. -Old School Heavy Machine-gunner. To give enemy combatants a good rinse with lead. -Particle Weapon Specialist. For tech-savvy. -Silent Assassin. For those who don't need extra attention and noise around them. -Shotgun conversion. Comes as a separate weapon type. Can be found or bought. -AI-augmented homing projectile launcher. Illegal conversion that requires AI adapters to craft.

Each class offers both noticeable cosmetic and technical changes to the weapon and its gunplay.

Favored by many mercenaries, outlaws, and renegades of the Common Space.

You can find it at your nearest Trade Authority! If it's not there, it's just sold out, so keep checking in! Denis from Cydonia might even have one just for you!

For collectors and gun enthusiasts, this comes in a package with a special mag-lev stand to display your armaments proudly (and professionally lit). Find it under your Weapon Cases tab in the Building menu.

Customization variety: -7 Barrels. -4 Grips. -3 Mags. -7 Stocks. -6 Internal. -4 Vanilla Optics.

Balanced for endgame and NG+. Due to the low availability and high price of rounds, I've added a crafting recipe to the industrial bench to supply you with plenty of ammo for plenty of fun!

Please share your builds with me on X or Nexus @8strd!

Note: This is my first completely from-scratch project, meaning I handled the concepting, modeling, texturing, and integration myself. It's been a huge learning curve, a whole lot of fun, and I feel great about being creative and actually doing something I really enjoy!
