The assault rifle is a moderately heavy, automatic ranged weapon which fires 3-shot bursts of rounds which deal a moderate amount of damage each; a slightly shorter delay between each shot; a moderate time between bursts; slightly longer range and moderate overall accuracy.
Acquisition[edit]
Assault rifles can be crafted at a Machining table once the Precision rifling research project has been completed. They require 60 Steel,
7 Components, 40,000 ticks (11.11 mins) of work, and a Crafting skill of 6.
They can also be found in ancient shrines or purchased from outlander and orbital combat suppliers, and outlander faction bases. They can also be found on the following raider kinds:
Raider Kind | Chance | Average Quality | Health |
---|---|---|---|
Mercenary Gunner | 9.17% | Normal | 70-320% |
Elite Mercenary | 53.37% | Normal | 100% |
Boss | 53.37% | Normal | 100% |
Ancient Soldier | 10.81% | Normal | 100% |

Analysis[edit]
The assault rifle is the jack-of-all trades of RimWorld's firearms. Single-target damage is respectable, with accuracy and warmup time being good overall. Range is amazing - tied for third of all non-consumable weapons and only beaten by weapons with considerably less DPS. The assault rifle can be used to good effect in virtually any use case, whether in close-quarters, out hunting, or on the field. Other weapons surpass the assault rifle in specific roles, such as the chain shotgun in maximum DPS and in close quarters, but no other weapon is as flexible and versatile. For this reason, assault rifles are a common choice for standard issue when not optimizing for a specific strategy.
In terms of actual DPS, the assault rifle is consistently higher than the LMG, lower than the heavy SMG until beyond short range (12 tiles), and generally outdamaged before and after AP by the lower-ranged charge rifle. All four are completely outdamaged by less flexible weapons like the minigun and chain shotgun however. The assault rifle is a moderately skill friendly-weapon when the player manually controls the pawn's range, though the charge rifle and heavy SMG tends to fill that niche better.
The only real thing that the assault rifle lacks is stopping power, as it's unable to stagger humans. Another downside is that production is quite expensive, though not as expensive as a charge rifle. You also won't see raiders use assault rifles until the midgame somewhat limiting the chance to use looted rifles before the higher qualities available to colony-produced weapons take precedence.
Stats[edit]
Against an unarmored human, an assault rifle can kill with 4 hits to the torso, 3 hits to the head or neck, or 1 hit to the brain; cripple or destroy limbs in 3 hits; and cripple or destroy eyes and digits with a single hit. It'll generally take around 6 hits (~10.1 seconds average) to incapacitate that human from pain shock.
