Makeshift Rifle

The Makeshift Rifle is an Assault Weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale. It was introduced in Chapter 2: Season 6.

Functionality
The Makeshift Rifle is a slow firing, inaccurate rifle, so it's designed for medium to close range encounters. It does not fare well at longer ranges and it suffers from a lack of first-shot accuracy. It's characteristics are similar to an Assault Rifle and Heavy Assault Rifle.

Stats
Makeshift Rifles range from dealing 30 Damage per shot to 33 Damage per shot (135 - 148.5 damage per second). All Makeshift Rifles use. The Makeshift Rifle has a headshot multiplier of 1.5x. The Assault Rifle is a hitscan weapon. It does not have First Shot Accuracy enabled, and will always fire a random spread of bullets, which increases with continuous fire. This spread is decreased whilst crouching.
