You'll receive the UJC Special Ops Assault Rifle during Chapter 7: Colony. You will not be able to get the Assault Rifle any earlier than this, so hold tight to your previous weapons until you get far enough to acquire the best one in the game.

Once you go off on your own and leave Dani behind, you'll need to fight some enemies and find the objective. Next, you'll have to find your way to the Security Room. To get there, head through the general shop and take a right.  

Before you do this, though, you'll want to instead take a left after exiting the store. You'll then end up in a bathroom, where you can find the Assault Rifle Schematic near the sinks. Make sure you locate it and pick it up since it can be easily missed if you aren't looking in the right spot.

To acquire your own UJC Special Ops Assault Rifle, go to a Reforger and craft your brand-new amazing weapon. It costs 1000 Callisto Credits to craft a UJC Special Ops Assault Rifle.

That's all you need to know about how to find the Special Ops Assault Rifle in The Callisto Protocol. This is the best weapon in the game, so you'll definitely feel a lot stronger now that you have it.
