Oh Hell Yeah

[Shane Sisko Skirata]

Location: Mandalore Mines

Testing new things was always a dangerous prospect and as Shane was working on some of the equipment they had for the ship he looked over it. Taking in each piece of the small but delicate ship while they worked on its systems and were installing the stealth systems. Yes with Aetan back under their control the cloak had finally been finished and now all that was left was building it up into a flying ship of death with a seat in the center of the bridge so he could shoot anything that might affront his field of vision. Thoughts of more to add to it came while he was walking and checking on the mining operations for some of the beskar. He had some ideas of what to make for his armor but wanted to have it compliment him now that the old clan skin was getting old and he well had been contacted by an old friend. The man wasn't in need of credits so he said but you never know with how things might be going forward and at the ready until his attention was on the skies to see when he was coming.

The ship came swooping down roaring through the skies down to the mine. He'd recently contacted an old drinking friend about making two guns. He wanted them to be special and made of a metal that was resistant to sabers when up against an opponent wielding one. Although even though it was business bringing them together he had brought a crate of ossus whisky, for the good old times sake. It was thanks to [member="Shane Sisko Skirata"] that taneas was so good with a blade. The ship spun into a wide role before straighting out. It wasn't long till he'd reached the meeting point and landed the ship. Moving out of the pilot seat he grabbed his sword sheath Barnes and slipped it on as he made his way off the ship with the crate. Shane looked as he'd been waiting a little while. "Heyy old guy. Hows the galaxy treating you?" His voice would sound rough with not talking for a while and the night he had didn't help much either.

The man had arrived and standing there as he looked at him Shane raised one hand at first to shield his eyes and then to run it along his head thinking about the last time they had met and he'd had more hair on his head then on his face. "Yes it is good to see you now come on." He had plans and this was a means to an end as the Reclamation was down over there being worked on. The hull being replaced and the engine upgraded, other parts of his baby like the bridge being upgraded and set up more like a mini warship with lots and lots of guns to blast everything in his vision. "We want to be able to get this done today."

Taneas chuckled with a smirk on his face. "You have a thing for the impossible aayy." He shook his head for a moment and followed Shane. "Well if we are talking projects then I'll say it simple, I need to guns. I've got most the stuff, you know the basic mechanical parts. I just need a frame and the parts put together, and the magnetic coil is important. After all any edge on the pesky force users is a good thing right?" He handed over the small role of paper with the designs on. "Think you can do that?" Taneas knew it wasn't easy to get a hold of beskar but having friends paid off.

Shane was walking and listening to what the man wanted as he gtave him a look... a look that said I am going to turn around and back... and you're going to say something less stupid. He was a mandalorian, their whole thing was weapons. He'd be pretty terrible if he didn't know how to make things that shot or stabbed people. "Oh I can make it, now come on, we'll get the things we need." He was leading the way and the finest beskar smiths in the clans were here at the mine working, the ones with his suit of armor and now while he brought one aside getting some parts from him. "So here is what we can do, a beskar frame for the slugthrower and something far more dangerous. Micro mag pellets sharpened to impact and go through most armor. With some illerium from a ships ejector seats in the tube to propel it several times faster through the magnetic coils. You'll have accuracy and power but the range might not be perfect, though it won't be bounced back at you and will likely tear their hands up."

Taneas nodded to the man and smiled slightly. "Lets do it. Only one thing, I plan of shooting twenty eight gauges out of this thing. After all bigger is better, especially when it's the force users that let's say to strong for their own good." He followed Shane to the smiths feeling a little like a outsider still, but he was to proud to show signs of it. "So what's the first steps. I presume we need to get the beskar or has that already been mined?"

 

[Shane Sisko Skirata]

"Oh it is already being mined, my armor is getting old and I need a new set for myself." He was looking at the man with a nod of his head though while he was talking about the size he wanted to fire. "We can make it big, don't worry. These smiths are the best you'll see." He moved pulling out some of their current guns while showing it. His attention while working on some of the plans they could get. "It won't have much ammo you can load at a time but as a slugthrower it will be dangerous and very strong.... just make sure you have a back up so you can buy time to reload."

"Ammo capacity shouldn't bother me too much since I'm after two anyway. Besides if they work well as expected it should make quick work of who ever stands on the other side." Taneas vaguely remembers shane's old armor, it had seen the wear and tear of battle many times and was becoming obsolete. Although the man in the armor was still one hell of a soldier. "Well if you need someone to spray paint it then I'm sure I can handle that. As for while we wait how about some whisky?" He throw a bottle to Shane, even if he didn't catch it the bottle wouldn't smash due to the dirt and grass they stood on.

Shane was looking at him as the smiths were working on it, making a nice and sleek design that could stand up to a lightsaber striking it and act as a shield if need be. Best and quickest way next to it being a strong blunt object to smash people it. "Whiskey sounds perfect." He motioned over to a table with some chairs for them, the armor design he had showing on a datapad as he motioned his hand to one of his clan sisters. She had the bottles behind her and opened it up passing them across the table as Shane looked to the man. "So what has been going on with you?"

Taneas would sit down taking a gulp of whisky before answering the question. "Well I pulled out of retirement and back in the republic. The quite life didn't suit me so much. Guess I'm a little like you; I long for the battle. Its what I know best." The sky was slowly getting dimmer as the light slipped away. Some of the people would go around lighting touches and setting up lights. The forge that the smith's worked at was glowing a bright red scattering across the floor and the stone tables and anvils set up. In a way it felt kind of homely. "But with joining back up I need new equipment. The beskads I still have are still in good condition but my old gun doesn't work so well after been out of the fight for ten years. So after the simple stuff is out of the way I will work on crafting a new armor. So I guess we will both have a new look." He would fill his glass up again then taking back the contents of it in one gulp. Even with everything getting darker he could tell the smiths where just putting in the pieces to the gun, it wouldn't be long till he could test it out.

Shane was looking at him... they weren't that old, most mando's fought well into their 90's and then some. Just how they lived, hell some of them had been fighting since they were 12 and now were old men teaching the others as his attention was on the drink he poured. Reports going to the holoimager. They were getting plenty and the mines here nice for a clan. His brother in arms no different them Gil or Strider but more... this was one you wanted to share a drink with. "I am not that old, got at least another good forty years on me for fighting."

Taneas laughed as he pored a third glass of whisky. "Well you know the saying. Your as young as you feel. But face it with age comes wisdom and we may be older than the kids we fight along side with, but we know what to do and how its works better that them. So don't be embarrassed but ware it wit pride." He would glymps over to where the smiths where close to the completion of his guns, one had been done already sitting to one side. "Ahhh I can't wait to try these new girls out when there done. They will definitely make a bang for there buck and a deadly one at that. I don't suppose you have anything I can shoot to try the first one out do you?" He asked getting impatient from excitement.

He could drink to that and listening to the idea of trying out the weapons well all he could say with that was. "They will be something and you're only as old as the organs you got inside you. I got a twenty somethings liver right now." He said it with a grin to show he was joking but well he had seen things and the beskarsmiths were working harder now as they were showing in the vice the gun. Setting the internal workings with the magnetic coils and the power systems. The revolver style for loading the slugs and finally the fineness of the grip for it to be form fitted to his hand as needed. "We'll have it ready soon enough to test and even get some targets."

 

[Taneas Haring]

[member="Shane Sisko Skirata"]

Taneas would laugh loudly for the camp to hear. "Well if you have the liver of a twenty something year old then I have the kidneys of a twenty five year old." He would laugh some more. He would stand up and taking a swig of whiskey straight from the bottle. "Well I can test the first out now then once the second is ready both at the same time to figure out how string the recoil and accuracy is." He would walk over to the stone table picking up the judge and loading in the 28. Gauge shells into the revolver. Flicking the gun to the side so the cylinder would lock into place. Brushing his fingers over the cylinder it would spin fast making clicking noises. "Well let's try her out she'll we? Ill take a few shot you take a few if you would like?"

He gave a nod while looking at the gun and holding his wrist up as he looked at the range for weapons testing. Got to have that before it was activating the targets and rolling his shoulders as one of the smiths brought over his pieces of armor. The sections ready for him as he started replacing the plates of duraplast and baskar with the new plates gleaming chrome almost. "Alright lets see how well your aim is and the distance for most effective range." He was looking at most of the thigs they had and some of the ideas while he was setting up the gauntlet system of his armor swapping the tubes.

Taneas would nod while aiming the gun at the target. "Ill do a single shot to get the feel for recoil then I will try faster shots." With the laser sights lined up her would squeeze the trigger making a loud BANG! noise. The shards of metal would spread slightly covering the mass of the target. As for the recoil it didn't seem so bad single shot but it definitely had a kick to it. This time he would switch on the laser attached to the underbarrle of the gun emitting a green laser beam. Lining up the gun again her would rapidly squeeze the trigger twice and followed by BANG! BANG! with a split second in between. The recoil this time was a lot more although both shots hit the target and knocking it down. "Well I must say I am really impressed. sites are well lined up already, the power I was looking for was there. Not only that the accuracy for a 28 gauge shell is well damn good. Here." Taneas would hand over the gun to Shane while smoke still left it's barrel. "Knock yourself out."

He was looking and watched it as the helmet for his new armor was set up and he clipped it to his belt. The feeling of the armor was a little tight but it was made to hold all of him within it as he touched the revolver. "It is a finely crafted item." He was looking at the metal of it while he tested the weight of it. Holding it as he aimed at the targets firing the shot as the slug propelled through the magnetic coils and slammed into the target with a look down the sights before he moved his hand and shifted to another target firing off another slug and then a third in quicker succession. Pulling the revolver up as he held it and popped the reload bringing it open with the casings for the mag pellet blades while looking over it. "A great piece indeed."

With the bottle in hand he'd take a gulp before passing it. "All we need to do now it wait for the second. Anything we can do to kill the time?" He would ask as the sky was pitch black and the flames flickered around the camp. The clanging of metal against metal kept in time like a beat that caused embers to scatter about before dying out fast. "I suppose we could go for a quick patrol or maybe help someone out around the camp. I'm still able to work so you don't have to worry. I'm not drunk or even tipsy yet." Taneas would smirk as his stomach rumbled loud. It had been a while since he had eaten and maybe that's one thing they could do. "If there is no work to be done we could go eat."

Find something to kill time well he could think about that and well there was some drinking and talking. Not much else, his armor was being worked on and reworked as he stood there getting the plates off of them for the smiths to work on as he spoke. "That might take time, the smiths can work on and double check all their work." He shrugged though while looking at the mine and holding his hand out as one of the Horak rifle for a patrol. "There shouldn't be anything of trouble or danger around here but the defense of the mines is important." He started moving off while the bodyglove was armored and designed for himself to use.

Taneas would nod as he reloaded the judge. "So what you thinking?" Flicking the cylinder back into the gun it would make a click. "If it's defence your looking for I can always suggest trigger lasers. Without deactivating them would initiate facial recognition. Then if that fails automated defence will take it's action. Although for safety reasons I'd have the first two on a stun setting that is fair enough warning." Tnease had delved a little in such but only a rough going over. Security systems was complex not only was there the physical side but the digital side would need solid work to prevent a slicer easy access. His eyes would peer over to the smiths to see the second gun been put together now. It wouldn't be long till one set is down and onto other equipment.
