In use
The YWR27HL-KRSW2 is a replica of the KARASAWA-MK2 from Silent Line: Armored Core Portable in Armored Core: Last Raven Portable. Akin to the original weapon from Armored Core 2, it is decently powerful and has a decently fast firing interval. However, it has only 35 shots compared to the original 50 and the 40 shots the Silent Line counterpart had. This is likely due to the heavy re-balancing of parts' statistics in Last Raven, specifically for powerful weapons like this. Even so, the KRSW2 can be a deadly weapon if used in the right hands.

Trivia[]
- In Silent Line Portable, this part can be found in the mission Data Retrieval. It is found lying on top of the Controller in the last room.
- Unlike in Armored Core 2, where by the stun effect caused by the impact of the shot adds on to the damage taken by an enemy AC, this weapon relies solely on damage output alone and the stun effect does not cause any damage whatsoever. In other words, this laser rifle's power comes entirely from raw damage without the stun damage. Because of this, for it to be effective, one has to land perfect hits on an enemy while hardly missing any shots. However, this can prove to be extremely difficult if the enemy is highly mobile or has very high energy defense, not to mention that the rifle has only 35 shots, so in a way, every shot must count/hit for it to be effective. Otherwise, another weapon may be needed to brought to bear if the ammo runs out and the enemy has not been taken care of.
