WEAKNESSES
  • Size: Don't try using it in very enclosed spaces, and you can't carry more beyond one or two small back up weapons and makes you stick out like a big fat sore thumb
  • Weight: It's weight means you will tire out. Also, once you run dry, there are very unlikely opportunities for a reload due to size and weight of a single ammo pack, unless one is defending their own base, meaning one may have to actively hunt for a single reload
  • Acquisition Difficulty: Weapon Systems like this are much more difficult to acquire than other weapons in the field, leading to them being under heavy guard normally. They are difficult to purchase legally, and Black Markets often charge a months wages for them. The most practical solution is to make one, but that requires a significantly greater amount of time and effort than normal
  • Slow movements: The size and weight means the user is 1/4th slower than normal
  • Exotic ammo limit: You won't find reloads for exotic ammo types in the field
DESCRIPTION

Nathan is all too familiar with this weapon system, given its prevalence and origin in the Gulag Era. Used by special forces units for jungle offensives, or by powerful bodyguards or chain gunners for base defense, the design has suffered the effects of mass proliferation, being found in gang hideouts and Military surplus depos under heavy guard in their armories. It's such an old design even Borstal doesn't remember it made it, let alone where the original blueprints are.
