Weapon Description

P1 Protector

Ballistic pistol.

425 Lightweight, easy to aim and operate - the Protector has been in use among habbers of all levels for as long as anyone can remember. As basic as it is affordable. 

HCF Heat

Modified handcannon.

486 The Heat has been made under the Joyrunner label, a black market quality brand, Roast your enemies to a crisp with one overheated blaze and laugh maniacally while they writhe and die.

HCE9 Flatliner

Energy handcannon.

492 The Flatliner represents Whisper Cybernetics entry into the hand cannon segment. Will punch through most armors or hardened skins and leave a hole big enough for you to run your fist through. Should you want to. 

HC3 Goliath

Ballistic handcannon.

524 The Goliath large-caliber hand cannon trades magazine capacity for stopping power. Should put a decent sized hold in most things you point it at. Just make sure to protect your face against the recoil.

EP4 Pacifier

Energy pistol.

The Minor Note

Modified pistol.
