What Can The CARV.2 Do?
A lot. The CARV.2 is a tactical defense rifle that fires in 3-shot volleys, which is characterized by high damage, range, and bullet speed. Since the CARV.2 is already available as ground loot in Warzone, there have been numerous videos and clips that show how powerful the new rifle is. If the CARV.2 actually comes into play in this way, it will in all probability replace the M16, AUG, and FR 5.56 in Warzone and possibly even become the new meta.
