==Capabilities==
The was a designed to be a very versatile weapon. The weapon was less of a pistol, and more of a rifle, because of a stock attached to the weapon in the factory, along with a longer barrel. Because of this long range ability, the weapon was fixed with a SOPMOD rail on top of the weapon allowing for long-range scopes to be affixed.
The scope and barrel prevented the weapon from being placed in a holster, but was still significantly smaller then a Submachine gun.
The weapon carried a plasma battery, shaped like a magazine, placed behind the trigger inside the pistol grip. The battery contained enough power for a total of 18 shots, before a new magazine would have been needed to be loaded.
