History

ACS-12 is based on the real life AA-12 shotgun. It was originally designed by Maxwell Atchinson (hence its original name Atchinson Assault Shotgun). However, Atchinson's original designs only came to produce a few prototypes, with the development that led to the weapon entering the market being done by Military Police Systems, Inc.

The most prominent feature of the AA-12 is its reduced coil and is known to only fire on fully automatic mode. Because of its low cyclic rate of fire at 300 rounds per minute, however, a user could fire individual rounds through short trigger pulls.

Usage

ACS-12 is a low damage, high fire-rate weapon. Because of its poor damage/range and only having two mod slots, it's mostly used in a DPS Striker build as it can build up stacks pretty fast. So far, only the Black Tusk Controllers have been seen using it.

Variants

Trivia

• The Blueprint for the ACS-12 was intended to be a Season Pass reward from Season 10: Price of Power, but was mistakenly replaced with a duplicate Blueprint for the SIX12 instead.
