Made with self defense in mind, the VSF Spaniel was designed for sue by diplomats and civilians who wished to keep their personal protection discreet. When the handle is encircled in a full grasp, it will automatically activate the holosight which appears as a floating red dot while in stun or bolt mode, and as a wide floating red circle in scatter mode. On the side of the pistol, there is a small switch that can move the weapon between safe, stun, bolt, and scatter modes. Both safe and bolt mode act much the same, requiring a similar charge from the energy cell to fire. The scatter mode takes up much more energy and releases a devastating close range burst of multiple projectiles that can deal a large amount of damage to an unarmored or lightly armored target.
