D-49 "Stinger" Long Pistol

The D-49 is the sister weapon to the D-47 "Serpent" Long Pistol. It lacks the whisper quality of its sibling, however, in favor of raw power. Still fed from a five-round drum, the D-49 is capable of launching a round at almost subsonic velocity. These high-impact shots are capable of downing most unshielded targets, and can even force their way through most forms of conventional shielding with one or two shots. As a result, they have found widespread use among the Crimson Dominion for use against the Azure Empire's shielded units.
