The 45/70-T is a lever-action rifle with a four-round tube. It hits hard per shot for a rifle, and Matéo Serrano's insurgency rewards its unique version, Vaquero Del Espacio.
It suits a careful mid-range player who likes heavy single shots. With a suppressor it works well for quiet takedowns at a base edge. In a loud fight the small tube runs out fast, so pair it with a weapon that holds more ammo.
Vaquero Del Espacio is the reward for Matéo Serrano's insurgency in the Los Bandidos operations. The Libertad Custom version is an upgraded model with high-end mod slots.
It takes all six ammo types. Armor-piercing rounds handle helmeted soldiers, and blast rounds give you a way to hurt light vehicles. Optics run from reflex sights to an ACOG.
AK-47
The AK-47 is the rifle most FND soldiers carry and the symbol of Libertad's revolution in Far Cry 6. It is a dependable 30-round assault rifle you can buy or find early, with Death Rites and Min Maxed as its unique versions.
AK-M
The AK-M is a modernised AK with slightly more punch and accuracy than the AK-47. It fills the same 30-round assault rifle role, and its unique versions include Fuck Antón, Royal Mint and the Lost Between Worlds rifle Red Fractured.

The AR-C is a fast-firing rifle you unlock by finishing the A Little Birdie Told Me treasure hunt. At 900 rounds per minute with good stealth, it is one of the better general rifles, and its uniques include Urushi, The Comrade and Bliss Rifle.
AS Val
The AS Val is a Soviet assault rifle with an integrated suppressor, new to the series in Far Cry 6. Its high stealth rating and 900 rounds per minute make it a strong pick for quiet base clearing.
