The GR-22 Assault Rifle for New Conglomerate, it lacks the range of some and versatility of other assault rifles available to medics but during close quarters battles and  at short ranges it will out perform anyone but a very close Shotgun or Sub Machine Gun user. (Do not take this as it says, the GR-22 is a weapon that was made to be an equal to some of the Terran Republic assault rifles).

The rate of fire, although not as high as the TR's Cycler TRV, is excellent considering this weapons short reload, although the 30-round magazine evaporates away quickly, which can often have you switching to your sidearm to finish a fast moving target.

Interestingly, despite the high rate of fire, the weapon is extremely manageable and the recoil and bloom are relatively low. New players should definitely cert into this weapon, as the combat medic coupled with the ease of use of the GR-22 will allow you to earn some experience and certs while learning the game.
