Compatibility was observed in the captured Alpha dataset. A listed part is not automatically the best part: price, weight, aim time and recoil trade against one another.
Ammunition and running cost

Treat ammunition as part of the loadout price. A cheap gun can become an expensive life when magazines and specialized rounds are included.
How to use this record
Treat this category as a sightline and distance tool, not an automatic upgrade because it costs more. Confirm the zero, an exit route and a close-range backup before committing cash.
- Verify trajectory and zeroing at fixed distances
- Reserve budget for a close-range secondary
- Do not rank it from a single kill sample
What still needs a live-build check
- Current shop price, unlock level and new-player discount
- Recoil pattern, aim-down-sight time and attachment modifiers
- Damage falloff, armor interaction and hit-location multipliers
- Whether every listed attachment remains compatible after the latest patch
