>>>>>[Well,
between the two of us, we dug up quite a few things (most of which will
be out of reach for many). Everyone from mages to mercs should love our
little stockpile of information. Also, if you're looking for some of the
hardware listed in here, I wouldn't go calling back here at Shadowland
on an open conference. Try me or Striker at LTG# 4206 (38-2405), we'll
hook you up with the right people.]<<<<< |

necessarily, though this thing does have its perks. It's quieter, for
one thing. If you're firing from maximum range they almost can't hear
you.]<<<<< |

Ammunition
Depleted Uranium Rounds
(per 10 shots)
Depleted uranium rounds are very dense, very destructive
bits of ammunition. Originally used by the US military in the GAU-8/A "Avenger"
rotary cannons on the A-10 "Thunderbolt II/Warthog" anti-tank aircraft,
depleted uranium rounds have proliferated in their use. Depleted uranium
rounds are usually only available to government or security forces for
use in vehicle mounted cannons and gun emplacements. However, DPU rounds
for standard man-portable firearms can be made on special order.

>>>>>[Fancy,
schmancy. Riggers will love 'em because of the serious damage they can
do. Load up your drones and vehicle mounts with these if you can. I
give them an A+!]<<<<< >>>>>[D-
to the man-portable rounds though. They're heavy, expensive, and the
added kick just isn't worth it.]<<<<< |
