Howa Type 89

The rifle was developed by the Japanese company Howa Machinery Company Ltd in 1898. It is available in three versions - the original one, the version with a folding metal buttstock and the one with an ambidextrous selector switch plus an additional 3-round-burst shooting mode. The Howa Type 89 is a symbolic gun in the Japanese armament, which is still in use.

Weapon in game

The Howa Type 89 Custom is a powerful weapon in the Rifleman’s arsenal. As for combat performance, the AK-12 and the CZ 805 BREN A2 are its closest rivals. Among the main advantages of the Howa Type 89 Custom are its superb damage, good range and a slightly increased leg damage multiplier. In addition, the gun is effective at any distance; it can kill your enemy with a single headshot. Moreover, the arm boasts a comfortable recoil and great customization possibilities.

Apart from sleek looks, the golden version of the arm sports an even higher rate of fire and increased magazine capacity. The assault rifle comes equipped with three unique attachments.

• Flash suppressor JCOMP Gen 2. Reduces damage drop and spread when shooting from the hip, and improves penetration.
• Grip Viking Tactics. Reduces spread and recoil, and speeds up reloading (except from a prone position).
• Collimator Vism Flip Do. It has a fast 1.3x sight and decreases barrel sway.

Regarding the visuals, the rifle has been greatly improved by the developers in comparison with the real life prototype. The new gun’s attractive and detailed looks will impress even the most sophisticated weapon collectors.
