Used by the Czelosmertian army and special forces, the Grinkov heavy blaster repeater was favored by men who wanted to get up close and personal and lay down enormous amounts of suppressive fire in a short amount of time. The Grinkov did what it was good for, keeping enemies heads down and making them think twice about getting back up to shoot. But, if a group of enemies were caught out in the open with this weapons system within range, they wasn't much hope for them.
