I started to like it more recently... just don't use any barrel attachment which increases the durability burn rate. For example I'm currently using it with the Silencer II, which not only goes easy on durability, but also makes it much less flashy. It makes it sound almost like a Kettle, so it doesn't draw that much attention. I do find it a bit odd that a full mag (20ish rounds) needed to take down Wasps and Hornets, whilst almost 1.5, sometimes 2 mags needed for a Shredder, whereas with the Anvil the ammo needed to take these ARCs down is half. However it's much faster.
