The USG-50 Ultor Sniper Rifle is one of two scoped weapons in Red Faction. It fires .50 caliber armor piercing bullets to an extreme range; however, it only has a six-shot capacity and is thus not recommended for close-quarters combat. But, if you're looking to reach out and touch someone, you can't ask for more than this. Just engage its UNVS-8 12x scope and zoom in to pick 'em off one by one. This weapon never poises a problem when used against you throughout the actual game. Those who use it against you do so very ineffectively.

• Primary Fire: Fires one round.
• Alternate Fire: Engages/disengages scope. Hold for maximum zoom.
• Pros: Very accurate and very powerful. One shot to the torso and/or head and an opponent will fall.
• Cons: The scope dims the environment some and it's not a very effective weapon in general at close range, as the accuracy seems to be off and the reload is a bit long.
• Recommendation: It's an excellent weapon at a distance, but you'll probably find both the Precision Rifle and Rail Driver to be overall better weapons, even at fulfilling your sniping needs.
