SCP-127 - “The Living Gun”

SCP-127, AKA "The Living Gun" or "Gunther", is a class, sentient, and neutral SCP, appearing as a modified MP5S firearm with two forms. It can look like a normal MP5S when on the ground and can also have legs to move around. It can grow four spider-like legs to walk around. SCP-127 has one eye on the front of the gun above the firing barrel. 
=== Abilities ===
SCP-127 can fire teeth-like bullets, though may only be picked up when it's lying down. Personnel can ask the anomaly to pick it up, once picked up it acts like a normal firearm. It has 30,000 reserve ammo and 30 munitions inside of the magazine. SCP-127 is capable of firing by itself. SCP-127 can also attack by using one of its legs to hit somebody.
* SCP-127 can also do a "stick bug" dance.
=== Lore ===
The story behind SCP-127's appearance is this: there was a miscommunication between the Mobile Task Force that retrieved a newly discovered anomaly (SCP-127) and Transfer Site-2 on December 11th, 2023. This led to the anomaly being shipped incorrectly from Transfer Site-2, and it got mixed in with another shipment en route to Pathos-III. SCP-127 hid within Shipment #459d09 as a gun and upon inspection, SCP-127 was not discovered by Crimson-9 and the Installation was put on high alert. SCP-127 was lost in a weapons shipment for approximately five hours before its assignment to the Supervisory Constable ███████ of the Military Police, who unknowingly used SCP-127 to terminate an unruly CD. However, ███████ noticed abnormal malfunctions with the sub-machine gun’s racking and ejection system. Upon submitting a quartermaster's review, ███████ tested SCP-127 in Site-Phi’s firing range, which reanimated and grew four insectoid legs. SCP-127 fired upon Constable ███████ in a panic, puncturing his frontal cranial. He has been relieved from duty and compensated for his injuries. It was decided that SCP-127 would stay in the Installation. 
* Members responsible for this logistics mishap were reprimanded appropriately. Free occupational therapy is being offered to Constable ███████'s coworkers.

SCP-127 is contained within Turing-1 of the Clean Rooms. The chamber is an standard CR containment chamber, with light security and a white interior. The chamber is made up of an area for briefing and spectating, and then a room with tables for item SCPs and SCP-127. The interior is designed for weapon testing with sound proofing and targets. Turing-1 was previously a CR testing area but was repurposed when SCP-127 came to the installation. SCP-127 is allowed free roam around the installation. 
* Turing-1 is not a frequently targeted place for CD raids.

== Testing ==
SCP-127 is a well-understood SCP in terms of testing. To test on SCP-127 you require the ScD rank of "Junior Researcher", an actor, and a CR escort. These decently low barriers and SCP-127's very simple nature lead SCP-127 to be well understood. Make sure to use precautions if giving SCP-127 to CDs as certain CDs will use that opportunity to go rogue and ruin your test. Also note that SCP-127 will only do things that it wants to do, you can't force it to do what you want. 
* SCP-127 can not talk, but It can be interviewed by asking yes/no questions.
* SCP-127 is neutral.
* Cross-tests are known to be successful.
== Recontainment ==
SCP-127 is a pretty neutral SCP and is not known to breach. SCP-127 can be provoked, but when this happens it will usually kill its aggravators and move on. It is possible however for a player to grab SCP-127 and use it as a weapon to go rogue. To stop this you simply have to kill the player or wait for SCP-127 to jump away. This scenario is rare and can be easily solved, so it does not indicate a breach or necessitate the use of protocols. Some C-9 agents will usually guard SCP-127 to prevent anyone from stealing it.
* To breach SCP-127, enter its containment chamber and politely greet it. Use its nickname (Gunther) to gain more trust from the entity. Ask or challenge it to dance with you. After a few seconds of dancing, ask it to follow you to the outside of CR. If you are a raider, take a photo of it outside of CR to redeem points. At this point, SCP-127 may let you use it as a weapon, if not dance with it more and talk about its interests. If all else fails shoots it and run.
