ABRa4

The ABRa4 represents a significant evolutionary step within the ABR series, focusing on extending the assault rifle's effective range. With a demand from RUBICORE soldiers for a versatile long-range option to tackle diverse operational environments, the ABRa4 emerged as the fourth variant in this distinguished series.
==Design==
The ABRa4 maintains the core elements of the ABR platform, staying true to the proven design and functionality that soldiers have come to rely on. This consistency ensures that soldiers can quickly adapt to the ABRa4's operation.
The defining feature of the ABRa4 is its extended range capability. The rifle is equipped with a substantial 20-inch barrel, significantly increasing its effective range and accuracy. This alteration is particularly well-suited for engagements in larger operational theaters, where encounters can occur over extended distances.
To accommodate various accessories and attachments, the ABRa4 boasts a quad-railed handguard. This design allows soldiers to customize their rifles with optics, grips, lasers, and other mission-specific enhancements, ensuring adaptability to diverse combat scenarios.
While the ABRa4 incorporates a heavier and bulkier buttstock, it remains adjustable to cater to individual soldier preferences and operational needs. Maintaining this feature ensures that soldiers can maintain optimal comfort and control in the field. The ABRa4 continues to utilize the potent 6.8x43mm SDC round, providing soldiers with the necessary firepower to engage targets effectively at longer distances. This ammunition offers an ideal blend of power, accuracy, and range.

==Trivia==
===General===
* The ABRa4 primarily finds its place in larger operational theaters where engagement distances are substantial. In regular operations and close quarters combat scenarios, the ABRa3 continues to serve as the standard issue rifle, offering a balance between range and maneuverability. Conversely, the ABRa5 serves as the close quarters counterpart, optimized for confined spaces.
*Recognizing the ABRa4's potential as a designated marksman rifle (DMR), soldiers have the option to modify it for this role. Common attachments for this transformation include the Zetsky 6x scope for enhanced accuracy at longer distances, a Panthera fixed buttstock with an adjustable cheek-piece to ensure comfort during precision shots, and a bipod for steady support when engaging distant targets.
*Unlike its predecessors, the ABRa4 comes standard with a camouflage paint finish. This isn't just for aesthetics; it is specifically designed to provide effective concealment in desert environments, where the rifle may see extensive use.
*Due to its longer barrel and design for extended-range engagements, the ABRa4 is less practical in urban areas characterized by confined spaces and shorter sightlines. Soldiers operating in urban environments may opt for other firearms better suited to close-quarters combat.
*The ABRa4's extended barrel length pays homage to the Holt MK16A4, a previous long-range assault rifle utilized by the Armed Forces of the Panamoan Republic (AFPAR). The Holt MK16A4 was chambered in the precursor to the 6.8mm SDC round, the 5.56x45mm SDC. This connection to AFPAR's equipment history serves as a reminder of Nexonia Prime's military heritage.
*The ABRa4's suppressor is distinctive in its construction. It features a polygonal and rectangular shroud that encases the barrel, offering enhanced protection from damage during combat. Beyond its durability, the suppressor serves to reduce the acoustic intensity of gunfire, contributing to stealth and mission success.
