"2-round burst assault rifle. Good accuracy. Rapid bursts." ― Description
The AN-94 Abakan is a Russian two-round burst assault rifle. It is available as a wall weapon for 1200 points.
The weapon features a unique rapid two-round burst system that provides near-instant follow-up shots. Combined with its low recoil, the accurate weapon rewards precise use. It retains its accuracy and damage even up to medium to long ranges.
When using the AN-94, it is often better to think of the weapon as a marksmen rifle with the handling characteristics of a traditional assault rifle. The precise two-round burst allows for respectable damage with each trigger pull, especially when both are headshots.
With a good aim to ensure both rounds find their mark, one or two trigger pulls to the head is often enough to kill a zombie.
However, the AN-94 is overshadowed by many of the more powerful weapons of its class that can be acquired through the Mystery Box. While the AN-94 Abakan offers good damage within its two-round burst, its low overall damage output is often unable to compete against that of fully-automatic fire. This is especially true in later rounds, where it may take several bursts to take down a single zombie.
Overall, the AN-94 is an accurate assault rifle that rewards well-placed shots. Its rapid two-round burst system can guarantee two consecutive headshots with a single trigger pull. However, its effectiveness dwindles in the later rounds where its weak overall damage output becomes most apparent.

Weapon Upgrade[]
When upgraded via the Pack-a-Punch machine, the AN-94 Abakan becomes Anesthesia.
With the Sharpened Mind Module, the upgraded weapon fires fully-automatically. The hyper-burst feature of the base weapon is retained, with the first two shots of each trigger pull being fired in quick succession at 1800 RPM.
The weapon also gains 150% headshot damage for 0.6 seconds after two successive headshots. Given the weapon's two-round burst, the increased damage to the head can be secured with a single trigger pull.
In addition to the module bonus, Anesthesia gains increased base damage and a higher headshot multiplier. The upgraded weapon also has a larger maximum ammunition reserve.
