TAC-16 Assault Rifle

A modular, lightweight, bullpup assault rifle created to replace the aging FCAR, which was still in service with the Republic of Titan Space Armada following the Solar Civil War. Though the TAC-16 eventually lost out to the Defense Research Institute's Infantry Combat Rifle for the contract with the Space Armada, the TAC-16 is still incredibly popular with paramilitary and police forces. The TAC-16 comes with an integrated 1-4x collimator sight and a standard rail on the bottom of the handguard for mounting secondary weapons, lasers, flashlights, etc. Mounting rails for the sides and top can be purchased as accessories. It is an incredibly simple weapon to operate, utilizing an uncomplicated trigger safety on the grip, located beneath the trigger. Additionally, it uses an ambidextrous magazine release and has a switch on the ejection port which allows it to eject spent cartridges in either direction, making it a very popular choice among left-handed shooters.
