A question to all assault rifle lovers out there

Ive got this nice new AR and it looks amazing stat wise and Imo deserves the synergy mods slapped into it.
but my question is this:
Its a purple and its going to take spending a small fortune if not some oranges to get the mods not to mention the heaps of ark savage to unlock the rest of the slots, in your opinion is she worth it?

I have an purple assassin grind fragger that I filled up with assassin mods. Figured why not just keep it and use it A)to lvl up my pump action shotguns or B)be a holding spot until I get a legendary to put em in

its decent but i prefer the single shot versions of those rifles but the synergy with the aim bonus will work pretty well either way

@ bigdawg, both valid uses and thanks for the advice :)
my ar skill is 20 and curently leveling the other ones like trying to hit lmg's 20 for my orange saw, my concern is as a felow trader you have seen the prices AR cannoneer mods are curently moving for lol

@ Saravind I too also love the frc heavy carbines and have had and traded many variations in orange, the question realy is if its worth it or not to upgrade a purple with mods curently selling for anywhere from 30k to 100k or even costing a orange weapon per mod.

It is a good weapon as i have the exact same one :)
Also have an orange but my purple is better
I do however still love my VBI Tacc Assault Rifle as well
I tend to keep any weapon i come across with an Assasin mod as i figure they are more rare and well
i like to be called an Assasin

If it has bonuses you really like I'd say yes. With a purple you are missing out on the additional 10% fire rate or 25% mag bonus for ARs and a slightly better mastery bonus but that's it. And with Cannoneer synergy mods you can get 9% fire rate boost total out of those making it pretty comparable to other Orange ARs out there that have a 10% bonus imo. If you like your stat rolls I'd say go for it :).

Remember the color of the weapons don't really matter. However, I have gotten my "Arc Technician " without any use of orange weapons at all.
My point?
If you can aim,& use strategy , then you can dominate.
Lastly I did this without using anything but basic mods on my AR.

Note:
That decision is really up to you my friend,& it all depends on how bad you really want those mods.
