// PVP ROLE

Ferro with a 6-round magazine. Same 40 damage, same 2.5x headshot, same Strong pen. But you get 6 shots before reloading instead of 1. At Tier IV the fire rate hits 1.17 shots/sec, making this one of the most oppressive mid-range weapons in the game. The trade-off: requires Gunsmith 2 and costs more to craft.

// THE MATH

Identical damage to Ferro. 3 body shots through Light, 4 through Medium and Heavy. 2 headshots kill through any shield tier. The advantage over Ferro is sustain — 6-round mag means you can fight multiple players without reloading.

VERDICTThe endgame hand cannon. Pair with Stitcher or Bobcat for CQC backup.
// HOW ANVIL COMPARES
Anvil vs Ferro

Anvil is Ferro's upgrade path. Same damage, better sustain, faster fire rate. Costs more. If your stash supports it, always Anvil over Ferro.
