Lever-Action Rifle

The lever-action rifle is a weapon in CULTIC.
== Mechanics ==
The lever-action rifle is first encountered in C1M1: The Grave. It consumes magnum rounds. Its standard-fire produces a single precise hitscan projectile (the visible tracers are purely cosmetic). It deals high damage, particularly on headshot. A unique attribute of the lever-action is its piercing shots, allowing the player to hit and even headshot multiple enemies with one shot.
The lever-action is one of the only weapons which you can fire whilst also holding out the lighter, making it useful in dark areas.
The lever-actions alt-fire fires the weapon quickly in sequence at the cost of accuracy. When the Deadeye upgrade is purchased, every headshot from the alt-fire will give the player slow-motion, making getting subsequent headshots easier.

== Strategy ==
* Lever-action headshots are a guaranteed kill for light enemies, even on Extreme difficulty. Heavier enemies such as the Adept and Harvesters can tank a few headshots. 
* Enemies bunched together in narrow corridors are fodder for the lever-action. Good aim and positioning are key to maximizing this weapons potential. 
* The lever-action is also good for sniping faraway enemies, especially if you don't have the FG-42.
== Trivia ==
* The lever-action rifle is based on real-life Mare's Leg, Winchester Model 1892 rifles with custom shortened barrels and stocks.
