2. BASICS OF THE OC
The OC is the only fully automatic weapon in the "Pistols" category of the shop. It's regular magazine protrudes from the gun and holds 27+1 per mag, giving it the highest capacity of any handgun. It costs 2200 at the Vanno store, making it an excellent pick up for any new explorers. The weapon will last for approx. 486 shots before it is worn out of durability. One mag of the OC will bring it down a considerable amount of durability. Bringing a ramrod and paper towels are essential to any OC user.
3. ATTACHMENTS AND UPGRADES
The weapon out of the buy box has no suppressor mount, no sight mount and no rail B or S slots. Only iron sights are included. In the upgrade box, one can choose to:
- Increase Reliability
- Add pistol scope mount/switch back to iron sights
- Add a rail S underneath
- Add a suppressor attachment point
The upgrades are all up to preference, however getting the Reliability attachment and Rail B attachments are of consideration, a laser will increase hip fire accuracy substantially. A suppressor is also highly recommended as the OC-33 is quite loud and 27 bullets fired in rapid succession unsuppressed is sure to catch the attention of some unwanted guests in your vicinity.
4. AMMUNITION
The OC is chambered in 9x18 ammunition, the smallest caliber in the UNPSC's stock. Due to the nature of the OC-33 being fully automatic, it is reminded that explorers who use the gun will be going through ammunition quickly, and the price of the ammo will start to stack up. Use it wisely! The four types of ammo available for this caliber are:
-
FMJ (Full Metal Jacket): Cheapest, gets the job done without any damage penalties, excellent for the explorer on a budget.
-
AP (Armor Piercing) 15% lower damage then FMJ, but way and better armor piercing capabilities. Loud.
-
SS (Subsonic) - Lower damage then FMJ but nearly silent. Use with a suppressor for excellent stealth capabilities.
-
+P (High Power) - Extremely expensive, highest damage and Armor Piercing capabilities. Buy if you can.
5. USE CASES
The OC excels for explorers who run a non-automatic primary to make up for its slow loading. The OC can be switched between automatic and semi-auto fire modes to accommodate for different scenarios. This small selector switch can be extremely useful depending on your situation. Always conserve ammo! You'll go through it quickly. The use cases for the OC are:
Good
- CQC
- Hordes of enemies
- Mid range (Semi-auto)
- Clearing buildings
- Backing up a semi-auto primary
Bad
- Long range engagements
- Prolonged use in a firefight
- Dark environments without light
As always, these use cases vary depending solely upon the explorer's skill.
6. CARE OF YOUR OC
Your OC chews through durability fast. After 2 mags, it will already be near or in the yellow zone. When bringing an OC-33 with you on your mission, it is highly recommended to bring cleaning supplies such as oil, a brush and a ramrod with paper towels. The oil and brush can be avoided if the weapon is ramrodded once after a magazine is fired. Doing so will ensure your OC stays in top condition. Jams on your OC can spell disaster.
7. CLOSING
The OC-33 is a fan favorite amongst UNPSC explorers. Whether your primary or your secondary, this weapon will ensure that you stay safe. Always remember to take care of it and clean it often to avoid any sorts of jams or malfunctions, and to use the right attachments, ammunition and upgrades suited for your needs and mission. Mix and match! It could save your life.
Onwards!
