M2A Carbine

The M2A Light Assault Rifle is a small, rugged rifle, ergonomically designed and made of fibre reinfroced polymer shell with a hollow graphite stock. It swaps incapacitation powers of larger calibre weapons for portability and longetivity of fire. The weapon is unusual in that its mounting for the M024, M025 and the M026 is above the barrel. The weapon in its baseline package comes with a 2x scope mounted on its left side reciever and with support weapon packages comes a computerised fire control scope on the top railing.

Uses
The ideal use of the M2A Light Assault Rifle is in supportive, high movement scenarios, utilising smaller calibre caseless ammo for higher volume cartridges, enabling prolonged suppresive fire. To this end the weapon is often used by mobile infantry, such as those in mechanized, motorised or airborne units. It is also popular among spec ops units for its ease of portability. The weapon has also found popular use as a Light Support Weapon, similiar to a Squad Automatic Weapon and as a personal defence weapon, used by medics, spotters in sniper teams, loaders for weapon teams or engineers.
