MIL-SCATTER

The MIL-SCATTER (known internally as the DCM-12) is a semi automatic plasma shotgun that boasts a distinctive bullpup design, emphasizing compactness without compromising firepower. Quantum Dynamics, the renowned manufacturer of SDF weaponry, created this specialized firearm for close-quarters combat scenarios where spread and stopping power are paramount.
== Design ==
The most striking feature of the MIL-SCATTER is its bullpup design, which enables it to have a compact profile while maintaining a full-length barrel for optimal pellet spread and plasma delivery. Unlike traditional shotguns, the MIL-SCATTER places its horizontal magazine in the rear, situated above the gun. This innovative magazine placement is a hallmark of bullpup designs and contributes to the weapon's overall balance and manoeuvrability.
To achieve rapid semi-automatic fire, the MIL-SCATTER is equipped with advanced Rolkehn circuitry that bridges the trigger and the magazine. This circuitry serves as the pathway for the trigger to synchronise seamlessly with the plasma in the magazine, allowing for quick follow-up shots with minimal delay. This semi-auto capability makes the MIL-SCATTER highly effective in close-quarters engagements, where rapid pellet dispersion is essential for neutralizing threats.
In true SDF fashion, the MIL-SCATTER features a second front grip and trigger, a characteristic design element seen in many SDF weapons. This front cutlass grip, located below the primary grip, serves as both a foregrip for enhanced control during sustained fire. This dual-grip configuration provides SDF soldiers with greater stability and accuracy when engaging targets at close range.
One intriguing aspect of the MIL-SCATTER is the presence of a white, boxy object mounted on the secondary top rail, situated above the shotgun's barrel. The exact purpose of this component remains undisclosed and shrouded in secrecy, fueling speculation among SDF troops about its potential functions. Some theories suggest it could be a specialized sighting system or sensor array designed to enhance accuracy or provide additional situational awareness.
The MIL-SCATTER utilizes DX 12 plasma ammunition, specifically designed for shotguns. This ammunition type maximizes the shotgun's effectiveness in close-quarters combat by delivering a formidable spread of plasma pellets with devastating stopping power. The result is a weapon capable of neutralizing threats in confined spaces with ruthless efficiency.

== Trivia==
===General===
*Among SDF soldiers, the MIL-SCATTER has earned a distinctive moniker: "Whisper of Thunder." This seemingly paradoxical name reflects the weapon's ability to deliver powerful, close-range devastation with a surprising degree of subtlety. The thunderous sound of its plasma pellets is muffled compared to conventional firearms, making it less likely to alert nearby adversaries during covert operations.
*The MIL-SCATTER's mainstream name deviates from the standard SDF weapon naming conventions, which often incorporate acronyms or numerical designations. However, within military nomenclature, the weapon is officially known as the DCM-12, denoting its designation as a combat shotgun utilizing DX 12 plasma ammunition.
*The MIL-SCATTER's unique design, characterized by its rapid semi-automatic fire capability, often leads to the rapid depletion of its 12-round magazine. As a result, SDF soldiers commonly opt to equip their MIL-SCATTER shotguns with Fusion Capacitors. These specialized attachments allow the shotgun's magazine to regenerate plasma ammunition, providing a means to replenish its capacity without the need for a time-consuming reload. This enhancement makes the Fusion Capacitor a favored accessory among those who wield the MIL-SCATTER.
*While the MIL-SCATTER is a versatile shotgun employed by a range of SDF personnel, it is notably more prevalent among SDF heavy troopers. These heavily armored soldiers are often tasked with breaching fortified positions, close-quarters combat, and boarding hostile vessels. The MIL-SCATTER complements their robust armor and aggressive combat tactics, providing the ideal tool for clearing rooms and suppressing enemy resistance.
*This shotgun is based on the DCM-8.
