In-game description
The HK G28 rifle was developed by Heckler & Koch specifically for the Bundeswehr as a support weapon for small infantry units. The G28 is based on the HK MR308, which, in turn, is a civilian version of the HK 417 automatic rifle. Despite several differences, the HK G28 is 75% interchangeable with the HK 417. This rifle is designed to shoot at distances inaccessible to standard 5.56mm assault rifles.
