• Modularity: Yes
  • The Type of gas canister can be easily swapped out on the fly.
• Production: Limited
• Material: Ersteel 1333 frame, Quinta-Polycarbonite Lamellar Compound grips, and a galven circuit enhanced Ersteel 1333 barrel

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• Classification: Blaster
• Size: Large
• Weight: Heavy
• Ammunition Type: Power cell, gas canister
  • Tibanna: 100 power cell | 300 gas canister
  • Sig: 50 power cell | 150 gas canister
• Ammunition Capacity: Average
• Effective Range: Long Range

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Modularity: The Pistis can add or swap out some parts
  • This weapon has a mounting rail underneath the barrel for lasers, flashlights, etc.
  • This weapon has a mounting rail above the power cell for optics.
  • The gas canister can be easily swapped out from high-quality tibanna gas to armor-penetrating sig gas.
• Quick Reload: When this weapon needs to swap out its power cell, its break-action design allows for quickly ejecting an expended cell and loading in a fresh one. The gas canister can be easily swapped out from its high-quality tibanna to a sig gas canister.
• Colored Bolts: The standard bolt color for the 'Pistis' is Royal Purple due to the high-quality tibanna gas and power cell charge. When Sig gas is used the bolt changes to a Midnight Purple. This will change if lower-quality gas or lower-charged cells are used.

STRENGTHS

• Ol' Reliable: This weapon has few bells and whistles, but that's part of its charm. It was designed to hit hard and be a reliable sidearm. Easy maintenance means fewer failures on the field.
• Armor Penetrating [Sig Gas Only]: When swapped to sig gas, the weapon's bolts take on an armor-penetrating quality, allowing it to shoot through some armor.

WEAKNESSES

• Heavy: This weapon is quite hefty for a blaster pistol. Untrained soldiers will have a hard time keeping it steady and upright. Although, you could use it as a club if you ran out of ammo.
• Low Accuracy [Sig Gas Only]: Sig gas makes your bolt's armor-piercing but wildly inaccurate. It is suggested to use at closer ranges where accuracy isn't needed as much.

DESCRIPTION
This model was named after the old Eriaduan word for reliability, "Pistis." Designed as the sidearm for the Valkan Guards, reliability was chosen over technological gimmicks. So, the only gimmicks you'll find it a comfortable pistol grip and a weight that holds the weapon down when firing leading to low recoil. That and the ability to swap the gas canisters.

The design choice to include a swappable gas canister was made after the success of the NZ MB-02E and its two gas canister system. While it was not possible to put two gas canisters inside this weapon, even while being a larger weapon, having the ability to swap on the go gave it the utility that was desired.

The high damage of the weapon was able to be achieved by enhancing the barrel with galven circuitry that focuses the bolt leading to a higher output, similar to the venerable DL-44.
