Type-11 Energy Projectile Rifle - Nick's Ultimate Armory of Badass

The Energy Musket is an energy-projectile weapon which fires a 15mm, plasma-saboted spherical projectile carrying a powerful thermal energy charge to the target. It uses a pulsed UV laser to ignite or “activate” each round, which is then accelerated electromagnetically between two dorsal rails which form the twin “prongs” of the weapon. Each round packs a substantial energy charge, exploding on impact to make up for the relatively low muzzle velocity when compared to conventional gunpowder firearms.

A pulsed, solid-state UV laser ionizes and superheats the projectile's hydrogen fuel layer, which reacts with the projectile's copper based outer shell to create a self-sustaining plasma reaction in and around the projectile that boosts its penetrative power...the plasma-saboted projectile is accelerated magnetically between two rare-earth magnetic prongs that are used in lieu of a conventional barrel.

Nah you're fine, go ahead and say it. The Covenant were one of my biggest influences on the weapons and technology of the Kyrdan knights. I take it you think it looks like Reach's plasma repeater, because that was actually one of my main influences for this weapon. However, I have since changed its design somewhat significantly and am fast approaching a final draft, one which doesn't look QUITE as much like a plasma repeater.

Thanks...I am, however, in the process of updating the design, so stay tuned for a future deviation that includes the new design of the weapon.

The stock seems like it'll be a bitch if used by a human. :I
Nice work, anyway.

Yeah, I just discovered that about it...I'm correcting the stock in a future version of the weapon. Thanks for telling me :3

Hmm...I have no idea, you'd have to talk to the Kyrdan weaponsmith who made this weapon.
