Nailer

The Nailer (Type-33-ASN) is a crude derivation on the once in service with the .
Built by small startup in the Low Benefaction per request of the Syndicate's Komnenoi operatives, they are a favored assassin's weapon by multiple factions in the ongoing crime war in Rio de Janeiro's understreets. Employing a novel recapture method of compacting and stabilizing powder and shards left from crystal detonations, leftover materials can be reused as availability of Subanese crystal is a premium in the Former Covenant Asylum Zone and much of human space.
Design predominantly for human hands, the weapon is far smaller than a traditional Needler and handled most by human or Kig-Yar assassins on behalf of their contractors. Due to the compact size, the Nailer is usually hidden beneath clothing to mask its ammunition's distinctive pink glint. Radiation and inhalation concerns come with use of the weapon due to proximity to a user's body and the construction method.
