The G2A4 is a semi-automatic rifle in Titanfall. It shoots pretty quickly and a mod increases the rate of fire even more. With attachments and the right mod, this gun is deadly at multiple ranges.
Don't be afraid to fire a bunch of shots to take someone down, even though the magazine size is small. Those looking for a precise, powerful rifle will find it in the G2A4. I'll show you the stats of this gun, attachments, mods, and challenges.

Weapon Basics - Get to know your G2A4
The G2A4 has pretty high damage and accuracy. The range and rate of fire are average though. I found it harder to kill people from far distances, even though the accuracy is great.
Just because you can see them, doesn't mean it is worth shooting from too far away. Experiment for yourself to find the best range.
- Amazingly accurate, even with iron sights.
- Line up head shots, or fire away with its decent fire rate.
- Don't shoot from too far away.
Attachments - Which scope is best?
HCOG
HCOG stands for Holographic Combat Optical Gunsight. This scope has the shortest zoom at 1.85x magnification. This scope works well with this gun. Good for close-range zooming.
- Aims quickly and accurately.
- Uses the smaller range of the G2A4 to its advantage.
- Great for taking out close, jumping enemies.
Holosight
The Holosight is good for a balance in range and close combat. It has a 2.1x magnification and provides a tighter aim than normal.
- Great medium-range scope.
- Tightens focus on enemies and areas.
- Most versatile of all the scopes.
AOG
The AOG, or Advanced Optical Gunsight, gives this gun a longer range. It has a 2.4x magnification, great for fighting at a distance. Not as good for this gun as others, but still useful if you need to keep your distance.
- Watch your back. Enemies can sneak up on you more easily while zooming in with this scope.
Mods - Customize Your Rifle
Extended Magazine
This mod adds 4 shots to your magazine, letting you do more damage before you need to reload. This is great at most times, especially when keeping your distance.
Match Trigger
This is a great mod for keeping a balance between close and long-range combat. It lets you fire as fast as you can pull the trigger. Be warned, it also lowers accuracy and magazine capacity by 6.
- Great when enemies run up to you, or when you get close.
- Push the fire button as quick as you can to unload on an enemy.
Suppressor
It lowers your overall damage in exchange for not being detected as easily. You will not appear on minimaps when firing, the gun noise is softer, and it has a lower muzzle flash.
If you want to go undetected and don't mind what you're giving up, then use this.
Challenges - Skills for Kills
There are 6 categories of challenges for the G2A4, each with multiple tiers to complete.

This category involves killing enemies. This means any enemy, such as a Pilot, Grunt, Spectre, or Titan.

Spectre kills count towards these challenges. Killing 25 Spectres unlocks the Extended Magazine mod.
The Expendables
This category is all about killing Grunts. 25 Grunt kills unlocks the Holosight scope. 50 grunt kills unlocks the HCOG.
This Is My Weapon
Just using the gun for certain periods of time completes these challenges. They give experience and Amped G2A4 burn cards.

Getting headshots with the G2A4 gives credit for these challenges. You get experience and burn cards.
