VN-212 elite tactical rifle

"You kriffers can keep your rosaries and your holy books. In battle, my god is this ass-kickin', punk-ownin' little baby. Just point and click, and watch the bastards go down."

- Bakas Mofo talking to Necasian soldiers

The VN-212 elite tactical rifle was a specialised assault rifle reserved for higher-ranking soldiers in the Necasian Military during the Cruentusian War. A standard weapon for elite divisions such as the Necasian SpecOps or Greyfox Squad, the rifle was rarely delegated to regular troops unless they picked it from dead comrades or if they were lucky. The rifle was known for its fast rate of fire and its internal kinetic heating system, which heated the rounds fired through the barrel as they passed through, increasing their power. However, as this system tended to overheat and cause recoil, it was normally turned off and used only in tense situations. It was also given a retractable minaturized grenade launcher that was sometimes removed in favour of laser sights or bayonets, as it tended to jam. Many users would often personalize their rifles, such as Necasian commando Bakas Mofo, who owned a heavily customized rifle he named 'Old Sally'.
