BORG AND ACPA HANDGUNS

In 2020, extraordinary fighters must be provided with extraordinary weapons. The widespread use of cybernetic implants in the armed forces, militias and police has opened a market for weapons that no normal man could handle safely. Thus, the weapons described below require at least a cyberarm. Some can only be used by a combatant moving around in ACPA. Most of these weapons are rare and should only appear in a game to scare your players.

This weapon from Arsaka is a monster 14 mm capable of single shot or 3-round burst. In single shot mode the weapon is fairly accurate, however in burst mode the accuracy drops significantly (-2 WA) due to the incredible recoil of the round being fired and the short barrel design.

Smaller than the "Misa", and more powerful, this seemed to be exactly what the women of Arasaka were asking for. This is a really nice weapon, very comfortable to shoot, and fairly easily concealable, it almost fits in your pocket.

Now this is a handgun, quite possibly one of the largest revolvers available, this fires the full sized 7.62 round. It was designed for use by full conversions and ACPA, but some brave souls have taken it upon themselves to try and fire this thing without augmentation (usually resulting in a broken wrist). A Body minimum of 14 is needed to fire this extremely large weapon.

Arasaka's semi-auto answer to the "Mjolnir". Unlike its brethren this weapon fires full sized 10 mm caseless rounds and offers a superior ammo capacity, unfortunately it also suffers from the heavy construction and even heavier recoil. Still it is very popular in C-SWAT circles as the sidearm of choice.

This pocket sized 14 mm is possibly the most dangerous handgun ever made, to the user as well as the target. The materials it is constructed out of aren't strong enough for the round fired, and there is no slide mechanism to reduce recoil. Instead the barrel is heavily vented. This weapon has a 1-in-8 chance of blowing up everytime it is fired.

Another example of too much gun. This weapon comes in three forms, firstly consisting of a large 14 mm as the main weapon, then you can choose either the single shot 10 gauge shotgun, single shot 25 mm grenade launcher, or 20 round 9 mm submachine gun with a ROF of 6. All 3 weapons also come with integral laser sight and vary slightly in outward appearance. The name is rumored to be derived from the Boy Scout motto of "always be prepared".

The Cobra is also available in variants chambered in .44 Special, .45 Colt, .44 Magnum, .50 Action Express and the heavy .454, but no one seems to care. Custom grips are available for an additional $175.

With the Piranha, Colt wants to compete with Malorian on its own turf. It's cheaper, more accurate and will make happy people among "the bigger the better" enthusiasts. Its only big flaw comes from its very long barrel which does not help its handling.

Since it's introduction, this weapon has become the polices worst nightmare. It's reached almost epic popularity among gangs due to its "relative" low price and extremely high caliber. This weapon has given even the cheapest thugs a way to fight back against the most heavily armored police. It's 3-round burst capability make it even more lethal. Of course you get what you pay for, this weapon has a tendency to blow up (every fumble rolled using this weapon has a 50% chance of causing it to explode in your hands). This tendency increases when on 3-round burst (anytime the weapon fumbles, it explodes). The high lethality of this gun, both to enemy and user, have not stopped it from being imported.

As full conversion cyborgs and other cybernetically enhanced or armored individuals are becoming slowly more prevalent in the nomad community, so is the necessity for weapons that will stop them. This hand made handgun fires the 5.56mm rifle round, which will not only take out even full conversions, but also makes a pretty good vehicle stopper. Unfortunately it's not very reliable and prone to jamming.

Drop that full borg, or stop that mack truck in its tracks. This gun fires the same 10 mm rifle shell used in the Arasaka Morita and packs one hell of a wallop. Its short barrel design and heavy load make for an extremely well felt recoil, so accuracy is a little troublesome, but the power of this gun, combined with its concealability make it extremely popular with borg hunters and C-SWAT officers.
