    Dont quote me on this, but I think they changed that into the Competition LAR-15 another Semi-auto.

    Used that weapon in the beta liked it and relied on it before finding the Police M4. I guess the L could stand for Lightweight, oh crap.

    What I don't understand it why can we have selective fire weapons like most of these actually are? Have the ability to toggle between semi auto and full auto.

    presumably, because Division classifies Weapons with Categories(to determine what Mods it should be able to use, what Stat Ranges, Et Cetera). if a Weapon could bridge Categories, then... the Stats and compatibilities would need to change every time you switched Fire Modes? not really practical for Division.

    as always, remember that Division is a game that features Firearms, but it is not a game about Firearms.

    I think that rifle was bugged. Damage was way lower than other rifles, with a better firing rate and reticle reset rate, but not nearly enough to offset the nearly 200 lower damage compared to other rifles.

    Fire selection has never been an option in the Division game and this is not a simulator, so reading off U.S. Army definitions really has no bearing. Besides the categorization has changed to "rifle," which is new in the Division 2

    Glorified AR, yes, less reliable no. Over priced? Yes. Manufacture out of business, yes. Reason? Overpriced.

    But I think he's using semi-auto when it looks like full-auto. Anyway, LVOA-C is based on the AR-15 which are usually civilian semi-auto rifles.
    Massive are correct with this change.
    Not aware of any police or military units that actually purchased the LVOA-S. Normally, the lowest bidder gets the contract, evident by the US Military picking the Sig over the Glock, not a better choice of firearm but 150million less says it all. The LVOA was 3k and resulted in Warsport going bankrupt and getting picked up by ZRODelta (they don't appear to be selling the LVOA either)

    For me, it was the P416.

    For others, it might have been the CTAR.

    Same remark.
    Sometimes I'd really like to be able to switch from full-auto to semi-auto on an assault rifle, depending on the circumstances.
