3340-M10

The 3340-M10 is a favored weapon to the type of soldier which hopes to shoot off 4000 rounds in less than one minute, the weapon is very complex to make and assemble due to its main feature. The weapon was specifically designed to fire into large crowds of people with little regard to hitting vitals as the amount of ammunition fired out in such a small time is enough to eviscerate soldiers who are caught in its line of sight, in fact it was designed to ignore armor not in the standard way of penetrating it and hurting the soldier inside, but instead to hit the armor with so much firepower that it either caves or it sends the soldier in question flying in the other direction.

## Specifications

The weapon has a quad barrel deployable system, the weapon itself is single barreled when firing from a standing or non deployed position and fires at a slow speed of 800 rpm, the rounds fired out are alternating in nature, the weapon is fed through a large belt contained in what most people would call a box magazine. The box magazine is heavy and holds a maximum of 4000 rounds of 20x30.

The weapon has a secondary function which has been dubbed the deployed state, the weapon has deployable bipods that have spikes planted in the bottom ends of it, they are designed to stick into wood and dirt in order to grip onto anything that it attaches to. The weapon when deployed deploys three other barrels from the side of the weapon which creates a triangle figure. The user is then free to fire with all four barrels the barrels do not fire at the same time but instead fire with a 0.25 second offset to achieve an rpm of 3200. This usage of four barrels is required to evenly space out the recoil of such a high fire rate.

## Ammunition

The weapon is extremely heavy which makes the use of this weapon rare in the field but extremely common when expecting the enemy to invade or to attack a certain outpost, the magazine can be easily thrown away when depleted and replaced with a second box, to this effect of using belt ammunition it is possible from a concealed and covered position to clip together several boxes of ammunition together to achieve an extremely high amount of stored ammunition. The ammunition fired is non standard and alternating. The rounds that are propelled out of the weapon fly at 6000fps and can be effective up to 4000m away due to its ammunition type. The rounds fire are uncommon as rather than being solely composed of one or two solid metal types they are known as fragmented ammunition which expands upon hitting a target and splits into petals similar to how a shotgun works. The rounds have been designed to split apart in an effort to hit and injure other people who may be near, the alternating aspect of the ammunition is made by the use of three ammunition types, this would be Fragmenting rounds, Solid rounds, and tracer rounds in order to help deal with more complex situations. This being said for every 5 rounds there is 1 tracer and 3 fragmenting rounds alongside 1 solid round.

## Notoriety

The weapon has gained great fame as an absolutely devastating weapon when deployed correctly, it also has gained the name of “Earthquake” due to its strange and stunning noise as it fires, this weapon is a favorite among the gunners when fighting on the home front, and the most hated when deployed abroad due to its intense weight.
