M14 EBR-S Black Tortoise is a VVIP variant of M14 EBR-Silencer battle rifle.
Overview[]
This gun sports a unique Black Tortoise skin with aqua decoration and a Picatinny rail on the top of the receiver, plus a detachable Special Grenade. It comes with 40 rounds of a magazine and overall improved stats, making it superior compared to other M14 EBR variants.
Unique to other weapons, M14 EBR-S Black Tortoise has two forms: The standard Rifle form and the unique Battle Rifle form, toggleable by pressing 1. In Battle Rifle mode, the player character will replace the magazine with a smaller capacity (30 rounds) and mount a 1x zoom scope (similar to the 9A-91-Wild Eagle's). This form uses larger cartridges resulting in higher damage dealing with reduced firing speed and increased recoil.
In its standard form, players can press RMB to detach and throw the Special Grenade that functions differently depending on mode. In PvP, the grenade will generate a high-frequency noise that temporarily deafens enemies, a lesser effect of the Flashbang. In Mutation Mode and variants, this grenade will release a biochemical gas that when thrown, it will inflict damage and slow down mutants' movements in its range temporarily.

Trivia[]
- During beta test, CF China players generally complained that this gun looks ugly, mainly because it looked bloated and exaggerated. This was the main reason the M14EBR-S Black Tortoise was suspended for two months before receiving a new, overwhelmed redesign on the next update.
- The test also planned to bring the attached grenade as separated throwing weapon, but later scrapped.
- Interestingly in Mutation Mode, players becoming mutants after throwing the attached grenade can still inflict damage to mutants in the smoke area and gain points, and sometimes caught mutants in instant kill.
