Wrist Rack

A wrist rack is a firearm device that attaches around the wrist and fires from the top. Most of them are energy weapons that require protocells for power, and some are capable of taking VEC variable cartridges. All of the companies that made these pre-plague have since gone out of business, so name-brand wrist racks are a good find. For this reason, one is likely to announce the make and model of the wrist rack they are wearing to potential threats as way of garnering respect or intimidation. Wrist racks are the most common energy weapon; hand-held energy weapons (what would be like an earthly pistol) were experimented with and quickly fell out of favor. A rack enables one to hold other things and still fire the weapon. Heavier models tend to require more Proto-power, though they also deliver more energy per discharge.
