Anaconda Gold

"An upgraded model of the Anaconda that keeps the overall advantages of its predecessor while dramatically enhancing the rate of fire."

- The Arsenal

The Anaconda Gold is a special variant of the Anaconda Black.

Overview
The AG is a greatly modified version of the original Anaconda Black. While other variants focused on power, less recoil, and other statistical changes, the AG is the first version to focus solely on the firing rate. The fire rate is compensated for it's high recoil.

Surprisingly, the AG was first leaked during Christmas 2010, and many expected it to be part of the 12/15/10 Content Update. It has been released on 3/16/11 as an NX standard.

Variants

 * Anaconda Black (GP Standard variant)


 * Anaconda Black 8-Inch (GP Rare variant)


 * Anaconda Silver (NX Standard variant)


 * Anaconda Silver 8-Inch (NX Rare variant)

Trivia

 * Its release makes the Anaconda family one of the few weapons to have both Gold and Silver variants. Currently, only three other families (the M92FS, Double Barrel, and 1911) share this trait (the Desert Eagle is silver by default, so it doesn't count).
 * Though the Anaconda already has a NX-Standard variant (the Silver) and an NX-Rare variant, CA:EU still classifies it as an NX-Standard weapon.
 * During the maintenance error on 1/12/11, the Anaconda Gold was leaked briefly (and mistakenly), as it was displayed in the Black Market for at least an hour. The issue was fixed soon after.
