DESCRIPTION
Heavily influenced by Verpine weapon design, the Model 12 shatter rifle is a precision rifle meant for precision firing. It is extremely powerful and modular for the user to modify it to their exact needs. It is also not limited at all in the type of ammunition it uses. Theoretically, it can fire whatever fits in the magazine and the barrel.
For sniper operations, it is a dream. For combat operations, it is a nightmare. The weapon’s internals are very sophisticated and specially designed, but they are fragile. It is not recommended to use this in the thick of a battle or as an improvised club if the user still wishes to fire it afterwards.
