Material Grade

Material Grade
Material grade naming varies per manufacturer. Values are taken straight from localization files; quotation marks enclose intentionally included (or excluded) space characters.

Whether or not material grades have an effect on stats is untested (other than rarity that is), but they do have an affect on the color of the gun, but so far, nothing more than that. With the exception of Maliwan, where each grade improves the chance of elemental effects triggering (and says so in weapon item text).
