+ Some Oomph + The caliber of the slugs is what gives it the above average punch as well as the high rate of fire.
+ Well Rounded + While not completely average, the weapon is balanced in favor of keeping target sight with a weighted stock and recoil mitigation system.

- More Mags - The punch of this weapon comes at the cost of ammunition capacity as goes through ammunition at a rapid pace.
- Loud - While most weapons make noise, this announces itself with gusto. The weapon makes an easily noticed bang in the direction it is being fired even beyond its range. Without a silencer, the weapon will be a dead giveaway to its current location.

Seeing the need to further add to the growing project of obtaining a private military group, the focus shifted to weapons development. Concerns were abound about the need to ferry power packs and gas cannisters across the battlefield on a much smaller and more privatized scale, incentivizing the need for a more self-contained contained firearm munition.

A dedicated venture into squad support weapons, this variant of slugthrower is meant to provide a large volume of fire on varying targets as either a means to make the enemy take cover, or to aid in destroying a heavy target. While longer, the weapon is no lighter as a means to allow for better target tracking for follow up shots. A larger caliber also brings with it a noticeable increase in damage potential. The weapon itself is large and weighty, requiring some level of endurance to carry around the field of battle. Usually not meant for the typical soldier, but instead specialists or designated heavy gunners within a squad. The weapon is best utilized with a bipod and some form of reflex sight.
