Welcome to Ciaranhappy's Weapon Reviews! DISCLAIMER, ALL CONTENT IN THIS PIECE IS OPINION, SO IF YOU DISAGREE DONT ACT LIKE MY WORD IS LAW, BECAUSE It's NOT

What exactly is the AMS
The Anti-Material Sniper (AMS) is a Sniper weapon, it is very long range and when you hold down fire, it fires about one bullet every second, which is slower than it sounds but you must remember, this is a sniper rifle! Its stats are good looking but stats can probably lie.

How good is it really
It isn't as good as I expected, don't come into this weapon expecting a machine Sniper Rifle, because you're not getting that, the increased clip is great mind you, just don't expect the gun to empty that clip very fast. The weapon is overall very good and I didn't regret buying it, in mission mode its a beast, none of the AI of the bots are designed to handle this kind of weapon clearly, however in multiplayer the weapon is still good, far better then the basic Sniper, I racked up some good kills with it but the thing is Noobs who spam OP weapons will wreck you, they wreck most things but AMS users are especially at risk it seems. Accuracy without scope is less of an issue here also, it's still terrible but I've made about 4 kills without a scope, you know how Snake Predator bassicly camps your body and is walking into you while shooting, do that if you want no-scope kills.

How to use
Treat it like an Assault Rifle, the one you buy just after the Rookie Machine Gun, honestly the guns have more in common then you might think, both have a high fire rate while still having a low one, both are used surprisingly little, both have good range and accuracy, there's probably more. Dont use this gun like the Sniper Rifle you get earlier in the game, I tried it and I got killed a lot... You should also swap out your accuracy boosting sniper gear for your agility boosting gear, as the AMS is HEAVY!

The Verdict
If you have the 490 gold spare and enjoy sniping like I do, GET THIS GUN, you wil not regret it, but if your used to OP weapons or find sniping boring or difficult you might wanna see what else is in the store before buying this, and if yo ucan afford it and there's nothing you like better than buy it. Overal, it's a great weapon.
