- It is a slug thrower. Something not often seen nowadays, and often is not given its due respect, much of modern tech has forgotten how to defend against good ol explosives.
- Shrapnel flies everywhere when these explosives go off.
- Is Big enough to use in the massive SST-16, making it, if it runs out of ammo, usable as a club to squash ground units and batter on enemies.
- Is easily carried on the SST-16, and is usually carried in a pair, very durable as stated before, and made to function in: Water, mud, blood, rain, snow, rocks, heat, freezing cold, Jungle, Heavy forest, Light forest, plains, savannas, ship interiors, and heck, wherever something needs killing.
- It is a slug thrower. Against much of modern tech, it will be hard pressed to make a dent, if a suit is specifically designed to defend against slug throwers, these explosions will be at most a nuisance.
- The heavy recoil on these weapons and slow reload time makes them a bear to use in combat once their ammo is spent.
- They have ammo! This requires the suits to trek around with thousands of explosive shells hanging off them. If one of these shells was hit by another explosive weapon, all of them would go up in one huge explosion. Rather explosive eh?
- Reload time is a major issue.
- Like everything else for the silver shock troopers, is very high maintenance, due to the iron in it, it will rust if not taken care of and cleaned. If cleaned, it is almost guaranteed to function under any circumstance. If not, it is almost guaranteed to jam and backfire.
- DESCRIPTION
This is a hand cannon in the most pure sense of the description! It is meant to deal heavy damage against armored units, and is known among the Silver Shock Troopers, as the Suicide. Because by the time your are using this pistol, you might as well be committing suicide. It is for dire situations in which all hope is lost and all other weapons which the suit carries are disabled or disposed. It is not the first choice for the user, but is certainly better than nothing. It really shines against heavy artillery and extremely armored units, easily disabling and mangling those which are not built to counter it. It is a situational weapon that is extremely good when it is good, but when it is bad, it is absolutely useless. The first five shots out of this gun will decimate those in front of it, but usually after that, the user either is forced to retreat, or is over run. The Silver Shock troopers have even dubbed this sequence of events, "The final five," when they hear those five earth shattering blasts and the corresponding, ground shaking explosions, they know that the user is probably dead.
