Notes: The spiker is the gun that burst firing forgot. Whether pulsing the trigger or holding the trigger down, the rate of fire and accuracy remain the same. This gun fires slowly, but is suprisingly good at range and very effective at close quarters as well. It is nearly as verstile as the assault rifle. Dual wielding, of course, negatively effects accuraccy.
For demonstrations of the spiker's range and killing abilities, see the following short films:
