Z-5 Heavy

The  Z-5 Heavy  (sometimes shortened as  Z-5 ) is an LMG featured in SAS: Zombie Assault 4 (both PC & mobile) as a starting primary gun exclusively for the Heavy class.

Overview
As a starting gun, Z-5 Heavy comes with decent damage, high capacity & 2 pierce, which is recommended for rookie players who prefer defense playstyle. However,  Z-5 will become ineffective for later levels as it suffers poor stats when compared to other LMGs. Also, It can't be augmented without EACs.

You should sell this gun not for money but a slot or simply replace it with a better gun that is randomly found in Strongboxes. Though Z-5 Heavy can be augmented with EACs, It's recommended not to do so due to EACs' rarity.

Design
Z-5 Heavy is based on Stone LMG 96. Its ammo box is appeared to be fed from the right side, mirrored to most real-life LMGs. However, this makes Z-5 look like another real-life MG called Stoner LMG 86. It has the word "Z-5" on its cover latch. It has scratches & some duct tape wrapped over its stock and foregrip, which means this gun is under bad condition but still usable.
