Black Ice Assault Rifle

"Ah, another one of Dr. Schultz' creations. The Assault Rifle; slow firing and keeps the enemy at bay."

- Ernst Von Schnee

The Black Ice Assault Rifle is a fully automatic firearm created by Nazi Germany black operations group Glatteis in 1941 during the Second World War, and was mainly issued to both its security and strike teams. Specifically created from designs and concepts by Doctor Schultz, the Assault Rifle was meant as a replacement for the STG-44 that Schultz and Ernst weren't fond of using.

Firing at 360 RPM, the AR was a slow-firing firearm that some of the security and strike teams noted was a downside, but was made up for its extreme penetration capabilities and low recoil being produced from sustained fire. It also had a magazine size 32 rounds and its reload time was significantly lower than the STG-44, allowing for efficient use.

While playing as the other three characters, the AR is simply the "Black Ice Assault Rifle" and once Pack-A-Punched, it becomes the Sentinel, gaining more base damage, range, ammo reserves and larger magazines. However, playing as Ernst Von Schnee will instead change the weapon to be "The Von Schnee", featuring an all-chrome patterning. Both the name and patterning is retained once Pack-A-Punched, gaining the same effects as the standard AR.
