The Widow is acquired as one of three possible weapons on the Collector Ship mission for Soldiers and Infiltrators. Although this modified model can be carried, no ordinary human could fire it without shattering an arm.
The Widow was never designed to be carried and fired by a human.

Weighing in at 39 kilograms, the Widow Anti-Material Rifle is primarily used by sniper teams in assault missions against armored vehicles or krogan. Effective against armor, shields, and biotic barriers.
