Coffré
The Sideways Rifle is an Assault Weapon in Fortnite: Battle Royale that was added in Chapter 2: Season 8 .
The Sideways Rifle is a fully automatic, fast firing, medium to long ranged weapon. It has first shot accuracy enabling longer ranged engagements. The Sideways Rifle does not have a magazine size, and works on a cooldown system. Firing the weapon for too long will cause it overheat, and the player must wait a short time before using it again. When the weapon is close to overheating, the damage multiplies by 1.5. The player can fire 10 bullets continuously before it overheats.
