AR556-SEMI

The AR556-SEMI is a semi-automatic centerfire carbine featured in The Last Stand: Dead Zone.

Description
A solid and ergonomic carbine based upon the AR-15 design. It's a very reliable carbine, but is limited to semi-automatic firing, because of various laws in various American states that prohibit automatic firearms. it also is rather expensive, which is one of the main critic points of this gun. It features a 16.12 Inch barrel, aluminum receiver, steel bolt, plastic grip, buttstock and handguard and it holds 20 5.56x45mm NATO rounds.

An expensive firearm made for law enforcement and home-defense. Available for purchase in various gun stores.

Information
Tactics

Most likely the first assault rifle that the player obtains, it provides a large boost in the player's armory compared to equivalent-levelled weapons. While it shoots fast for a semi-automatic, it's relatively inaccurate and isn't fully-automatic like the other assault rifles that can be scavenged. Any gear that increases accuracy, such as cleaning kits or some variants of glasses are highly recommended.
