- Ammo: When used in full auto, the blaster can buzz through its small magazines at an alarming rate

- Particle beams: Setting a weapon designed for close quarters to particle beam mode could potentially endanger the user.
DESCRIPTION
Essentially a tube that bolts come out of, the Model 5 CBC boasts a high rate of fire, with poor spread accuracy and high recoil as trade-offs.
It is designed to fill a niche role between larger rifles and pistols meant for personal defense, making it a perfect weapon for crewmen in vehicles as well as special operations teams who need to move quickly and deliver heavy firepower at a moment’s notice.
For those able to master the compact blaster carbine, it is a reliable and highly modular weapon for anyone, whether it be a soldier or a civilian looking for something better than a standard blaster.
