The Vom Feuer Advanced Rifle is an assault rifle featured in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.
Design
The Advanced Rifle is a bullpup assault rifle, loosely based on the CTAR-21 carbine, a variant of the Israeli TAR-21 and the Kel-Tec RFB. It appears to have a loosely modeled handguard of yet another variant of the TAR-21, the IWI X95, and a raised scope mount. In the beta, it was more correctly modeled after the CTAR-21 and had a green finish in comparison to the gray version in the finished game. It comes with a 30-round magazine and has the option to extend to 60 rounds like the other assault rifles in the game.
Performance
The Advanced Rifle has the highest damage per shot in its class besides the Special Carbine and a slightly higher rate of fire than that of the Assault Rifle and Carbine Rifle but lower than the Combat MG at the cost of decreased accuracy and lower range. It is a tad lower than the Carbine in terms of accuracy and having significantly lower range than that of the Combat MG. Due to its more compact size, however, it has a higher advantage in mobility over both the Assault Rifle and Carbine Rifle and the much heavier and bulkier Combat MG. Another disadvantage is that in GTA V it is unlocked very late in the game (being available after the final heist mission) and can't be used any further in missions apart from the Option C ending.
A Scope attachment can compensate for the lower accuracy while an extended clip can keep the weapon firing for a bit longer without having to reload a lot due to the high rate of fire. Unlike most assault rifles, it cannot equip a grip.

Locations
Grand Theft Auto V
- Only at Ammu-Nation after The Big Score.
Grand Theft Auto Online
- In GTA Online, the Advanced Rifle is unlocked at level 70 and can be bought from Ammu-Nation.
- Alternatively, it can be found in some online missions such as Saving Ryan's Privates.
Trivia
- Oddly, the Advanced Rifle has a rear sight, but no front sight; this would actually make aiming a bit difficult. In the PS4/PC/Xbox One version however, it correctly features a front sight.
- The Advanced Rifle is used during Three's Company, though it will unlock only at the end of the game storyline.
- If the player replays the mission, the rifle will have the same attachments the player selected.
- The Advanced Rifle and real life counterpart the IMI CTAR-21 are considered Carbines rather than assault rifles, however it preforms the same muzzle velocity as a full length assault rifle.
