In this episode: the Honey Badger - an American Personal Defence Weapon with integral suppressor: named for a particularly ferocious species of mustelid.

The Honey Badger's damage is moderate, with the weapon performing well in close quarters: three body shots to kill, or two shots where one is a headshot.

At a distance, you may need up to five shots to kill, unless you're fortunate enough to land four headshots upon a distant target.

Rate of fire is a healthy 800 rounds per minute, very good for the assault rifle category and certainly enough to hang in most close-quarters gunfights.

Hipfire performance is at the assault rifle default, but the intrinsic stealth benefits paired with the higher than average rate of fire means that hipfiring should generally yield good results.

Recoil is high, with your shots quickly dispersing in an omnidirectional manner.

The Honey Badger is very much suited to close range engagements, so you should seek to avoid longer range combat where possible.

Aim time is the same as any other assault rifle, at 300 milliseconds - and your movement speed is identical to the Honey Badger's peers too, at 90% of the base.

Magazine capacity is 30 rounds, or 45 rounds with extended mags: the standard for the assault rifle class.

Reloads are reasonably quick, taking 2.63 seconds to complete: sometimes inconvenient for a close-quarters weapon, but the default silencer will often buy you time sufficient to change mags.

The Honey Badger is an effective assault rifle for close quarters combat that comes pre-loaded with a free silencer.

Its damage is more than sufficient compared to the alternatives, and few other assault rifles can compare to the Honey Badger's rate of fire.

When used in a stealth role, the weapon is both versatile and deadly - more than able to quickly take down enemies out to a middle range.

At a distance, performance does suffer - the higher recoil means landing shots at range is difficult, which could give the advantage to a weapon better suited to the engagement.

You'll find SMGs and shotguns do outperform you at a very close range, too - while the Honey Badger's output is good, it pales in comparison to the weapons which specialise in short-range scuffles.

Still, you do have a stealth edge - and the blend of traits bestowed upon the mighty badger do make it a good fit for such a role.

Such a tenacious weapon won't stand for any nonsense, and will earnestly cut down any prey bold enough to stand in its way.
