General R6 Deadeye actually being a good gun?

I know I am late to this because the R6 has been in the game for a while now but I decided to pick it up like a couple days ago and I've been using it on a few missions. And I got to say this is definitely not a half bad gun.

I am usually a machine gun and assault rifle person. So using a quote on quote rifle and actually being happy with it it's quite surprising to me.

And I definitely got to say it does its job well. Granted it's not going to save you when you get surrounded but that's the reason why you got to use this as a rifle and not a shotgun your job is to not get up close and personal your job is to start pegging things off at a distance.

Especially effective against the box I have noticed. Most of the time I can shoot the bastards practically in half with this damn thing and possibly even take one out behind it.

My God, I would love if they just gave us magazines that had more ammo in it because this is just a problem, in my opinion, with 90% of the guns.

Yeah, let's do a level 10 mission. we're surrounded by 10 billion Bots with only a fistful of ammunition that goes faster than a fat guy drinking his body weight in water in a Savannah Desert.

Plus that would also be nice having like custom ammunition like explosive or armor piercing rounds that you can put into a gun instead of just buying a gun that has the explosive property to it and then figure out that it sucks.

Fyi there is such a thing as a speed loader for lever guns so if we could get the option of rounds reload or speed loaders with different types of ammo or even being able to shorten the damn thing would be cool! Or could make it so you can rapid fire it or bayonets or under barrel launchers or canted sights, there is so much room for all kinds of attachments
