Casaba-Enfield Cartridge Pumped Directed Nuclear Laser Rifle:
(Image)

The Casaba-Enfield Directed Nuclear Laser Rifle is the very latest and greatest weapon in the defence of His Majesties Britannic Realms across the stars, featuring the latest innovations in Nuclear Shaped Charges and Lasers, along with patented Breechloading technology all laid out on a handsome Black Walnut Stock.

Similar in design to most conventional weaponry and most familiar to humanoids, the Casaba-Enfield can be loaded by simply lowering the lever, inserting the cartridge into the Breech block, and returning the lever. Firing is naturally conducted by merely pulling on the trigger upon which the cartridge will activate in a controlled nuclear explosion within the rifle chamber and resultant radiation directed out the barrel and into the foe.

Thus the 55g Plutonium Bullet released a whole whopping Megaton (4.184 petajoules) of X and Gamma Radiation, concentrated through a series of mirrors, into a superheated ray of destruction at a stupendous 99.9999% efficiency thus negating recoil to a comparable level to that of a 2 bore. Fired in volleys the wave of nuclear fire will literally melt away the opposition with only the strongest radioactive shielding (Such as ours) allowing for a modicum of chance at survival.

The sighting system is also connected to the series of mirrors within the rifle. No fuss, and no fiddling as you simply determine the range of the target and the mirrors automatically realign along with the irons. Due to the deadly firepower withheld within the weapon it may come into occasion to limit the range of destruction so as to prevent unnecessary collateral damage. Shortening the defocuses the mirrors allowed for a less concentrated ray of more limited range, but has the curious effect of also widening the beam, potentially allowing for a shotgun-esque effect, but instead of lead pellets it's flesh roasting atomic energy.

Let us not forget that firepower is all fine and dandy, but it is in the assault where battles are won. The Casaba-Enfield features a solid bayonet lug upon which can be mounted monomolecular triangular bayonet (Sword bayonets available for NCO's as featured above), capable of piercing any substance in the universe up to 18 inches provided enough effort and most excellent at keeping Johnny Alien outside the boundaries of the WCF Shield as well as taking the fight to his crater!

Land Pattern: Standard Pattern for British Soldiers of Foot
Barrel length: 46-inch
Overall length; 62.5-inch
Weight: 10.4 pounds

India Pattern: Shortened form of the Enfield that has proven popular among Regiments stationed in the east and serving natives. Despite it's shortened length, accuracy has not degraded.
Barrel length: 39-inch
Overall length: 55.25-inch
Weight: 9.68 pounds

Cavalry Carbine: A very short Carbine version of the Enfield issued to Cavalry Regiments
Barrel length: 26-inch
Overall length: 42.5-inch
Weight: 7.37 pounds

Sea Service Pattern: Standard pattern present in the armouries of most Royal Navy Vessels. Used especially by the Royal Marines.
Barrel length: 37-inch
Overall length: 53.5-inch
Weight: 9.01 pounds

That is probably the single, most awesome FT weapon ever created...


i agree ,NNs breach-loading nuclear rifle is the awsomest NS weapon yet created...

Primary Lasers in Battlemechs LTD
Lasers are one of the three types of most common weapons in Battlemechs LTD. They do not need ammunition, instead drawing upon the engine of a
There are two main types of lasers: Pulse and beam. Pulse lasers fire off several beams in quick succession. While they are more powerful than beam lasers, they are heavier and generate more heat.
Micro Pulse Laser: The MCPL is the smallest pulse laser, generally used on Battle Armor and as a backup weapon on Mechs, and occasionally on fighters. They are also used to kill incoming missiles, functioning in a turret as a LAMS. They are not very powerful, but weigh very little and generate negligible heat.
Small Pulse Laser: The SPL is a very limited weapon. While it is more powerful than the MCPL it has only as much range and more waste heat than should be generated. While it is wonderful as a Battle Armor weapon, especially in urban environments, Mechs usually disregard them as regular weapons.
Medium Pulse Laser: The MPL is a very good weapon, having good range, power, and not as much waste heat than would be expected. The MPL is a regularly used laser weapon, second only to the medium laser in terms on numbers. It weights a good amount, but are still potent weapons.
Large Pulse Laser: The LPL is the most powerful pulse weapon, able to eviscerate many Light Mechs and some lighter armored vehicles in a single shot, or a few in some cases. They are very dangerous, but also generate a lot of waste heat and weigh enough so that is the only weapon on the Battlemech's arm, for example.

Beam Lasers: These weapons use a single beam of radiation, instead of rapid-firing them. They are usually sustained for a second or two. Even though they aren't as powerful as pulse lasers, they can be used in greater numbers due to their lighter weight, and more often, as they don't give off as much waste heat.
Small Beam Laser: The smallest beam laser available(there are no micro beam lasers), this weapon is generally used by Light Mechs. They require little energy and give off as much heat, so they can be used in a good numbers by a small Mech in hit-and-run tactics.
Medium Beam Laser: The MBL is a workhorse of most Mechs, being relatively light, powerful, and they heat up slower when alternating weapon types. Even four of these is a force to be respected, especially when all available lasers are focused on a single spot. For example, if five lasers are all focused on a knee actuator, chances are the actuator will be damaged, fused, or shot right out.
Large Beam Laser: The LPL is a weapon very suited to cutting. The weapon was designed specifically to be activated for up to five seconds, either burrowing through armor or even cutting off Mech limbs. Needless to say, it generates more than it's share of heat, although it does not weigh as much as would be expected. Usually, it is not used in heavier Mechs, but Light Mechs sometimes use it as their primary weapons, usually backed up by some other smaller weapon.

We usually obtain our weapons from enemy nations or from cheap arms suppliers. We use a lot of old Soviet equipment and current Russian weapons/vehicles.

I thought it was a pump action grenade launcher with a three round tubular magazine which weighs only about half a kg less than the MGL
