How it's built. Operating on a open bolt system the Defender is a very basic weapon, it's made so that any persons can pick it up and know how to use it. Consisting of a upper receiver which is the barrel, outer plating, bolt, and ejection port the weapon, and the lower receiver that is made up of the magazine well trigger housing unit and stock this weapon comes together very easily. It's tough and can occasionally jam if it isn't cleaned on a regular basis. This isn't saying you need to clean it after every use but to prevent jamming it's best to clean it at least once a week in the field when used actively.
Power. A .45 caliber bullet that can hit hard and keep the opponent down. This solid slug is capable of piercing blast and ballistic vests including those darn sappy plates in flak vests. However thicker durasteel armor can take more than a few shots to puncture as it is still a pistol round but a sustained burst can pierce durasteel. Metals such as Beskar and ultrachrome are far superior to the .45 and it will not pierce them. It's great for sweeping buildings and tight spaces and can even be duel wielded, this however is not really recommended but that's really up to whoever is wielding it.
Drawbacks. While the weapon is great for close quarters combat it's not going to be pulling any long shots any time soon, the range is slightly lack luster compared to other smgs but it can hold it's own. Another is that while it can pierce armor it's not the greatest in the galaxy at doing it, rarer metal armors can defeat the SMG. But above all is it's fire rate, it can drain a magazine in the metaphoric blink of an eye this means pack more ammo because this weapon will chew through munitions quickly.
Summary. An SMG for the professionals and people of the galaxy. It's going to hit hard and do it's job in close quarters, great for modifying and even comes with an extendable stock standard.
