SPECIAL FEATURES

• Cautionary Pulser: The grip of the sidearm will vibrate when low on ammunition.

STRENGTHS

• LESS THAN LETHAL: As the weapon isn't designed to kill, it performs exceptionally in its role to disable organic lifeforms.
• BALANCED: Due to the handle-port powerpack, the sonic pistol is wonderfully balanced.
• EMP PROTECTION: The sidearm is installed with a MIL-GRADE ElectroMag Defense Unit, which is designed to protect the weapon against EMP attacks.

WEAKNESSES

• LESS THAN LETHAL: On the other hand, as the weapon isn't designed to kill it would be particularly useless against someone equipped with anti-sonic gear or droids.
• RATE OF FIRE: One whole second must pass before another shot is fired, to allow for the powerpack to recharge another shot.
• CAPACITY: Compared to sidearms of most varieties, the weapon's powerpack only allows for fifty shots to be made before requirement replacement.

DESCRIPTION
Simple & effective, the LTL-1 Sonic Pistol is the first instalment of the Fiora Defence System's 'Less-Than-Lethal' Sonic Weaponry line. With a target audience of law enforcement agencies and civilian markets, the weapon doesn't support a lethal option and is only intended to disable and stun an individual; as it's only purpose, it does that job exceptionally well.
