The CFS-A1 is one of the more useful Baseline Systems in CFS's Set 1. It combines the durability of an Assault Rifle, the anti-vehicle capability of a Grenade laucher, and the versatility and customisation CFS firearms are known for. Unlike many firearms in the 2500's, the CFS-A1 uses the Traditional receiver style, with the magazine forward of the trigger/sear, instead of the numerous bullpup-types around. It is well known for it's reliability in harsh conditions and is able to be conditioned to fit certain environments for a long time. In the hands of a trained marksman, the A1 can be as deadly at range as a Sniper-class weapon.
