WEAKNESSES

DESCRIPTION
A pistol made for self defense and more inconspicuous usage, the Type 73 is a very good quality pistol and significantly more pleasant to use compared to the larger Type 59 service pistol. But even with a smaller, lighter frame, the pistol packs a hefty punch and reduced recoil.

Another selling point for it is the modularity. The pistol can accept a variety of sights, attachments, and even a suppressor to dampen its sound and mask the blaster bolts.
