Kat Decoria worked with several Silver Jedi Order tech heads, she wanted to create a lightweight and fast shooting rifle. It was created to be used by many members of the Antarian Rangers, using kinetic rounds to be more effective against Lightsabers and do more damaged to shielded opponents. A breaching shotgun was added to be effective in close quarters, with an extended stock to add more stability and increased accuracy. This also lowers rate of fire and spread of fire as well.
