Fully Automatic, flexible assault rifle with unique recoil
The Hammer Assault Rifle is a new weapon added in Fortnite: Chapter 3 – Season 3.
The Hammer Assault Rifle is a fairly hard hitting AR that is best used at medium range distances and while making use of one-shot accuracy, though it does have a recoil pattern that’s a little hard to predict. With a small magazine but strong damage per bullet, it’s like a cross between the SCAR and the AK.
