Description
The
"dinosaur gun" was originally designed by the Mauser
company for the colonists on Venus to combat the
large reptiles found there. It has since found favor
among big-game hunters and military snipers.
The weapon
is extremely bulky and heavy, and is typically
operated by a two-person team. It is almost always
fired from its integral bipod or convenient rest. |
