The ArmaLite AR-10 is a battle rifle designed for the American rifle trials of 1955, meant to replace the M1 Garand. Springfield's M14 prototype and FN's FAL also competed; the first won, though the AR-10 saw purchases by numerous smaller countries, including a few orders towards Oceanyka. However, this unsuspecting rifle would later be rechambered into .223, giving birth to the AR-15 and a family of weapons that would dominate the American Armed Forces' armouries for almost a century. In Oceanyka, it is considered a fine example of American manufacturing excellence, and sought after.

This weapon is fully automatic, either inherently so or by the presence of a selective-fire mechanism.
EFFECT:
This weapon can fire more than one shot each time it is used. Each subsequent shot has a progressive penalty.
Automatic weapons are considered STABLE when they're mounted on a vehicle, tripod or turret. This is different from the Stabilised SA.
- Point Blank Range - No penalty.
- Close Range (≤10m / 2sq) -> -1
- Short Range (≤50m / 5sq) -> -2 (STABLE: -1)
- Average Range (≤200m / 10sq) -> -3 (STABLE: -1)
- Medium Range (≤500m / 20sq) -> -5 (STABLE: -1)
- Long Range (≤1000m / 50sq) -> -5 (STABLE: -3)
~ Beyond this point, automatic fire is unfeasible without a STABLE firing platform. ~ - Very Long Range (≤2000m) -> (STABLE: -3)
- Extreme Range (>2000m) -> (STABLE: -5)
