Gravitic Speargun (TL12)
The Gravitic Speargun is a four-barrelled weapon that fires
24-inch metal projectiles via gravitic forces. It may fire
each spear individually, or all at once as a "burst". At
reduced range, the spears can be attached to monowire
filaments, making them function as harpoons; memory-metal
barbs on the projectile's head are programmed to extend upon
penetration. In addition to the standard armour-piercing
tips, shaped-charge breaching spears are also used; these do
6d(10) damage.
Malf Crit (Ver), Dam 18d(2) imp, SS 14, Acc 5, 1/2D 1500,
Max 3000, Wt 12 lbs, aWt 2 lbs, ROF 4*, Shots 4, Cost
$2,500.
