This article is quite biased and doesn't do this weapon any justice. I got a 10***  http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/saszombieassault/images/9/92/RED.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/40?cb=20150205035300 version, and it is FAR from disappointing when augmented with Deadly, Enlarged and Adaptive and used in the right role. I read this article and was going to sell it but I received some good advise from Ifthenelse01, who said it's a good weapon when used correctly. After actually using it, I figured out he is absolutely right. Stats are not everything when it comes to how effective a weapon is in the game. The http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/saszombieassault/images/9/92/RED.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/40?cb=20150205035300 version (and I assume the Black version too) is an EXCELLENT support weapon. It's DPS and stats are not great, but this gun wasn't meant to kill bosses like the Jagdfaust or the HIKS 3100. This gun is meant to vaporize large hordes of minion zombies (Shambler, Stalker, Shielder, Bloater, etc) very, very quickly. If you are in a tight spot and sorrounded by zombies, simple spam-fire that 25 round magazine in all directions and watch the zombies get vaporized. It's like unleashing a hurricane of frag grenades (until the magazine runs out). You don't have to even get direct hits. Just fire at a wall close to the zombies and watch them die. It's a perfect anti-shielder weapon for people who's primary weapon can't penetrate that shield. The only issue with this weapon is ammo cost, which can be mitigated by doing ammo contracts for HD ammo. This gun is unfairly underrated because people are more focused on DPS and stats than the actual application of the weapon in the field. If you  get a high grade http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/saszombieassault/images/9/92/RED.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/40?cb=20150205035300 or black version, and you need a weapon to destroy a large number of zombies in a very short amount of time with minimal effort (aiming), then this gun is for you. Perfect for Last Stand, Survivors (when a bad teamate activates multiple hordes at once), and Ice Station (during the truck ride). I wouldn't recommend the http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/saszombieassault/images/9/92/RED.png/revision/latest/scale-to-width-down/40?cb=20150205035300 version for Nightmare mode though. That 25 round clip and the long reload time means you can't keep up sustained fire, which in Nightmare mode means you die.
