Well it has factory modifers so even when they give it even more recoil than it has now it will still be better than the Hellriegel.

Plus for some reason this change buffed the hipfire on the Maxim, so trench clearing is lol compared to the HR which at least wants you to raise your sights lest you spray rounds everywhere.

Definitely too strong right now.
