Preface: Recoil > Ergo / Weight. The TX-15, M4, and ADAR builds are the same. This is a resource for me primarily and a resource for the community secondarily. So no, I wont do ergo or weight builds. I'm planning to incorporate all the modding guides this wipe into one long meta post discussing the ammo / gun economy to rationalize the price to performance for all the guns in the game. I'll be discussing economy builds there.
