Carbine Repeater

Description

General Information
The Carbine Repeater, introduced in the 3.0 update, is a secondary weapon based on the American 1858 Colt Revolving Carbine. The real life weapon, however, was never used in the Anglo-Zulu war, but had actually been used in: The American Civil War, The American-Indian Wars, The Australian Frontier Wars, and The Fenian Rising (to name a few).

The Carbine is like the Martini-Henry and the Webley Revolver had a child, having 6 shots in the revolving magazine, a limited range between the Henry and Revolver and a relatively fast reload speed (4-8 seconds), also between the Henry and Revolver. This combination also gave the Carbine a range of around 200-300 studs, which in this game is mid range.

Despite this, the Carbine is very similar to the Repeating Rifle, even reusing its animations as well as having similar Fire-rates (2.5 seconds). However these weapons differ in terms of range and magazine size with the Carbine having a higher drop rate and only 6 shots compared to the Rifle's 15 shots, so it can be argued that the Carbine is a direct downgrade to the Rifle.

Cost and Value
As a weapon concept, the Carbine Repeater is very interesting as it combines the capability and styles of 2 weapons to create it. Despite the relative cheapness of the Henry and Revolver (free and 400 coins/135 Robux respectively), the Carbine can be obtained temporarily for 750 coins or permanently with the Repeating Carbine Game-Pass that costs 220 Robux (making it the 2nd most expensive Weapon and the 3rd most expensive pass in the game).
