The Clancy Cinder M3 (simply known as a Cinder) is a Warden Long Rifle. It uses 7.62mm ammo.
Description
The Clancy Cinder M3 is a Warden bolt-action 7.62mm primary weapon with a long range (33m effective, 43m max), slow fire rate (42 rounds/min), rifle damage (45-67 Light Kinetic), and 12-round magazine. It behaves like a No.2 Loughcaster rifle with slower fire rate, heavier recoil, slower stabilization, same accuracy, but longer range. It should only be used for long range fire fights (between 33m and 38m) and from a stable position. Its appearance is nearly identical to that of the Loughcaster aside from barrel length, implying it may be a previous model of the rifle or simply a variant of the same rifle intended for longer range engagements.
It can use a Bayonet.
The Soldier Uniform reduces the weight of the gun by 25%.
It does not stack in the player's inventory (1 per slot).

Must be fully researched in the Weapons and Structures 
Tech Tree in order to be produced.
Mass Production Factory orders must have at least 3 crates.
Storage
It does not stack in structure or vehicle inventories (1 per slot).It can only be stored in the stockpile of Bases (32k max).
Crates of Clancy Cinder M3 can be directly submitted to any item stockpile that accepts that item to transfer their content.The crates can also be stored in the crate stockpiles of Storage Depots (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Seaports (1000 public, 100 per Reserve Stockpile), Shipping Containers (60), or Storage Ships (1000).
It can be transported by almost any vehicle with inventory slots. However it is much more efficient to transport it in bulk amounts as crates, either delivering them to a Base's stockpile with a Truck or to a crate stockpile with shipping vehicles carrying Shipping Containers.
Tactics
The Clancy Cinder M3 should be used specifically at ranges between 33 and 40 meters, where most firearms lost their effectiveness, and fired from a crouched position behind cover. The gun might need multiple shots to hit and kill at such range but it is effectively unopposed. The gun's aiming line can be used as a reference since it ends at exactly 37m, the gun's optimal range. The player should always remain in this ideal range and not let enemies get closer as the gun is at a clear disadvantage at closer ranges. It is also ill suited for nighttime combat.
Trivia
- The action of this rifle bears some resemblance to the Remington Model 8 Rifle, though that rifle is a semi-automatic carbine, not a bolt action long rifle. The lever on the side of the rifle could suggest that this is supposed to be a straight pull rifle, the pull resembles those on Swiss rifles like the Schmidt-Rubin.
- The overall look of the rifle might also be influenced by the Mexican Mondragon rifle, which is itself heavily influenced by the Swiss straight-pulls, as it lacks the characteristic "ring safety" on the corresponding Swiss rifles.
