7.62mm


(ZHL-U1953)

The 7.62x51mm NATO round was chiefly used by anti-terrorist units equipped with assault rifles for close-quarters combat until its widespread adoption among national security forces requiring enhanced combat responsiveness made it ubiquitous.

10mm


(10mm pistol, Stealth pistol)

With their combination of high stopping power and low recoil, weapons chambered for the 10mm round have become the sidearms of choice for paramilitary forces around the world.

12 gauge buckshot shell


(Assault Shotgun, Sawed-off Shotgun)

Standard 12 gauge shotgun shell; very effective for close-quarters combat against soft targets, but useless against body armor.

12 gauge sabot shell


(Assault Shotgun, Sawed-off Shotgun)

A 12 gauge shotgun shell surrounding a solid core of tungsten that can punch through all but the thickest hardened steel armor at close range; however, its ballistic profile will result in minimal damage to soft targets.

20mm HE


(Assault Rifle)

The 20mm high-explosive round complements the standard 7.62x51mm assault rifle by adding the capability to clear small rooms, foxholes, and blind corners using an underhand launcher.

40mm grenade


Linebacker G-87 MSGL

The 40×46mm grenade is a military grenade caliber for grenade launchers in service with many armed forces and use by the US Army during the Vietnam War. The 40×46mm grenade is used in hand-held grenade launchers, with single or multi-shot capabilities.

30.06


(Sniper Rifle)

The 30.06 (7.62x63mm in metric notation) it's high velocity and accuracy have made sniper rifles using the 30.06 round the preferred tool of individuals requiring "one shot, one kill" for over fifty years.

.303


(FR-27 SFR)

The .303 (7.7x56mm in metric notation) is a rifle and machine gun cartridge first developed in Britain as a blackpowder round put into service in December 1888, later adapted to use cordite and then smokeless powder propellant. It was the standard British and Commonwealth military cartridge from 1889 until the 1950s when it was replaced by the 7.62x51mm NATO.

Dart


(Mini-Crossbow)

The mini-crossbow dart is a favored weapon for many "wet" operations; however, silent kills require a high degree of skill.

Flare dart


(Mini-Crossbow)

Mini-crossbow flare darts use a slow-burning incendiary device, ignited on impact, to provide illumination of a targeted area.

Napalm canister


(Flamethrower)

A pressurized canister of jellied gasoline for use with flamethrowers.

Pepper cartridge


(Pepper Gun)

"ANTIGONE pepper spray will incapacitate your attacker in UNDER TWO SECONDS. ANTIGONE -- better BLIND than DEAD. NOTE: Keep away from children under the age of five. Contents under pressure."

Plasma clip


( Plasma Rifle)

A clip of extruded, magnetically-doped plastic slugs that can be heated and delivered with devastating effect using the plasma rifle.

Prod charger


(Riot Prod)

A portable charging unit for the riot prod.

Rocket


(GEP Gun)

A gyroscopically stabilized rocket with limited onboard guidance systems for in-flight course corrections. Engineered for use with the GEP gun.

Tranquilizer dart


(Mini-Crossbow)

A mini-crossbow dart tipped with a succinylcholine-variant that causes complete skeletal muscle relaxation, effectively incapacitating a target in a non-lethal manner.

Tritium power cell


(LS-66 Sabre DER)

Tritium power cell is an atomic high energy density low-power cell using the emission from the radioactive isotope of hydrogen tritium by non-thermal conversion (extracting a fraction of the incident energy rather than using thermal energy to run electrons in a cycle) to generate electricity.

Universal ammo


A post-2052 ammunition type in which a nano-mass is dynamically configured by any Mako Ballistics weapon into ammunition of its appropriate type (anything from a pistol shot to a guided rocket, or even incendiary fuel for the flamethrower) and allows all Mako Ballistics weapons to use the same ammunition.

WP rocket


(GEP Gun)

The white-phosphorus rocket, or "wooly peter," was designed to expand the mission profile of the GEP gun. While it does minimal damage upon detonation, the explosion will spread a cloud of particularized white phosphorus that ignites immediately upon contact with the air.
