The MAR-9 is a Marksman Rifle from the Gunsmith in the FOB. Its Camo Select screen holds 25 camos, 8 Military, 3 Special, 4 Completionist, 4 Prestige and 6 Mode Mastery.

Its Special camos are Mangrove, Fungal Grid and White, and each one adds a second challenge after a weapon progression step. Gold, Platinum, Harmonic Break and Divergence make up the Completionist chain, and the Prestige set runs from Pyroclast to Pyroclast Cascade.
