In-game, the Honey Badger is always equipped with a suppressor, meaning it is impossible to equip barrel attachments. In spite of this, the weapon still has the standard sound spread of 600, although it does reduce the weapon's muzzle flash substantially. The ballistic properties of the .300 Blackout rounds are reflected by a rather low projectile velocity, but high damage per shot. The Honey Badger suffers from a few drawbacks: a low base magazine capacity of 24, which is lowered even more by the Quick-A attachment to 20 bullets. Despite that, the reload is rather slow. Additionally, the horizontal recoil is rather high, making it somewhat difficult to predict and control. Its high fire rate and damage will nevertheless allow for very fast kills for players capable of taking favorable engagements.
It is best suited for closer ranges, because of its low projectile velocity, temperamental recoil, fast damage drop off, high rate of fire, and higher than average movement speed.
