SPECIAL FEATURES

• Dual Purpose: This weapon is uniquely built and designed to fire not just slugs and rounds, but also act as a blaster, allowing it to have the best of both worlds combined into a single gun. There is a switch on the side which allows for the weapon to alter its modus and either go with its blaster or slugthrower function.

STRENGTHS

• Surprisingly powerful blaster modus: Due to the connection and switching between the two wildly different modi, it could be expected one of these to be lacking, but nothing is less true.
• Surprisingly accurate : Despite its relative weight, the ironsights have been calibrated perfectly, while the strange balance will need some adjusting at first, the weapon is meant to feel heavy, but not uncomfortable to those wielding it.
• Reliable: The sturdy design and material choice have allowed for this weapon to be extremely durable and reliable, making it a very decent weapon in practically any situation.

WEAKNESSES

• Low Ammo count: Due to the fact that this weapon has these two modi designed and built into a gun no larger than any normal heavy blaster, the ammo capacity is significantly lower than both counterparts, only utilizing the smallest powercells allowing for three or four shots at most on the market and while utilizing a large calibre of slug rounds, the clip can hold no more than eight rounds.
• Heavy, off-balance: With most of its weight up front in a somewhat unbalanced design, this weapon though comfortable to wield for experienced soldiers and veteran gunslingers, might prove to be quite a challenge for those who are new to wielding weapons such as these, a great deal of experience in fire arms is recommended, including decent physical prowess.

DESCRIPTION
Designed in house by the engineers from the N&Z EnSol division, this weapon in itself was never meant to be brought onto the market, as it was essentially built and designed as a test mule first and foremost, following the practice of reliable and noteworthy assault rifles having an additional grenade launcher as back up, this weapon was originally based on the simple idea of combining a blaster and a slugthrower rifle in order to make an assault rifle on the same principle after testing. However, this planned assault rifle did not get built in the end as the project was axed, but the testmule was interesting enough to eventually get its designed smoothed out and tweaked for a more favorable appearance and smoother operation.

The weapon, now dubbed the NZ/DPR SW-01 or Dual Purpose Revolver Secondary Weapon model one, was tested at the industrial site on Mygeeto, where some of the testing instructors found the weapon to be somewhat heavy and cumbersome, but not at all uncomfortable, mainly because the weight and off-balance nature weren't too overtly pronounced or impossible to work with for seasoned veterans and soldiers. However, it became clear that for the unseasoned person, this weapon could be catastrophic. Though this wasn't a good thing, it wasn't a bad thing either, since through notifying the sales teams, it was made clear that only those who had the proper credentials could utilize this weapon fully.

Alas, a design flaw that did sneak in and did have a greater impact was the low ammunition space, due to both systems being crammed into a large revolver-sized item, the only option was to sacrifice ammunition for overall reliability and structural integrity.
