Chinese Assault Rifle (Fallout 3)

Chinese Assault Rifles were developed for Chinese Army (PLA) prior to Great War. These weapons are encounterd in use in Capital Wasteland-quite possibly a leftover from the United States' war with China, an event that triggered the Great War. This rifle is chambered in standard 5.56mm

This rifle can be seen in use by the super mutants in the Washington, DC area around 2277.

This weapon is not like the assault rifles you may be used to in FPSs like GWAR, Rainbow 6, etc. This weapon is not very accurate. Perhaps 1 in 3 shots will go astray even at approx. 10 yards. It's effective range is slightly longer than the shotgun. You should think of it more as an Sub-Machine Gun (SMG) in that it is best used indoors or in close quarters. Please note that when using this gun in VATS, each VATS attack you cue up will fire 3 bullets.

Regular Assault Rifles can be used to repair the Chinese Assault Rifle.

Behind the scenes
The rifle bears some visual likeness to the Russian-designed AEK-971 assault rifle, as well the AK-47, but also have some distinctive differences.
