— Battlelog description
The ACW-R is a weapon introduced in the Battlefield 3: Close Quarters expansion and is unlocked upon the completion of the Done Fixing assignment. It was first seen in the Close Quarters Gameplay Premiere trailer.
The ACW-R is optimized for medium to long range combat, similar to the SCAR-H, with the ACW-R featuring a very controllable and consistent recoil. It is generally weaker than other carbines in close quarters, this is because of the lower damage up close, requiring 5 rather than 4 shots to kill.
This low maximum damage is fully compensated by the high minimum damage of 16.7, causing long range performance to be somewhat comparable to the AS VAL. The 850 RPM fire rate does somewhat compensate for the low damage, but has a larger effect on the long range performance. The high fire rate and minimum damage combined with good accuracy allow for very quick long range kills.
Battlefield Premium members may equip the Tactical Camo as well as the Digital Woodland Camo upon the completion of the ACW-R Specialist assignment.

Trivia[]
- The ACW-R's Mastery dog tag was formerly bugged and instead showed the player's SCAR-L kills. It has since been patched in the Armored Kill update.
- On the PlayStation 3 and the Xbox 360, the ACW-R would not make the controller vibrate when shooting. This was fixed with the 1.06 patch.
