The BAR in real life. (M1918A2 variant)
The M1918 BAR (English: Model 1918 Browning Automatic Rifle) was an American automatic rifle designed by John Browning in 1917.

It fired the .30-06 Springfield cartridge from a 20-round magazine at a rate of fire of 350-600 rounds depending on the variant with a range of around 100–1350 meters.

Battlefield 1
BAR M1918
— In-game description
The BAR M1918 is a weapon featured in Battlefield 1 for the Support kit.
Three variants are featured in multiplayer for the Support kit: Trench, Storm, and Telescopic.
Trench
The BAR M1918 Trench is the first available variant for unlocking. Like the rest of the Trench variants, this one has increased hipfire accuracy.
Storm
The BAR M1918 Storm offers overall reduced recoil for better control over mid to long firefights.
Telescopic
The BAR M1918 Telescopic has a bipod and a telescopic scope for long range engagements.
The weapon is best suited for close to medium range engagements with a slightly more aggressive approach than other LMGs due to its smaller magazine which reduces its effectiveness as a point defense weapon; this is offset by its high damage, fast rate of fire and good hipfire accuracy. It can still be effective at longer ranges due to its high velocity, low damage falloff and the ability to switch to semi-automatic fire.
