The Multipurpose Sentry and Assault Rifle, abbreviated MSAR, is an assault blaster rifle jointly developed by Kali Vasquez and Kavaeric. The current latest iteration is the MSAR XM6, however the rifle's creators are rolling back to the more "stable" XM5 model.
Performance[edit | edit source]
The front block can be removed to create a compact blaster rifle, trading bolt velocity for mobility and control.
While the MSAR may not perform as well as other rifles in its class, its development has had a major focus on its reliability and durability, able to take more stray fire and exposure to water, heat, dust, corrosive elements, and the cold.
Up until the XM5, the magazine was automatically ejected. Because of the use of a regular cooler borrowed from the Terran standard-issue rifle, the soldering sometimes caused the cooler to stop working, causing the cell to eject onto the user with the potential to give second-degree burns. The issue was faux-rectified in the XM5 iteration by removing the auto-ejector.
Occasionally magnetic saturation occurs in the rails, causing the slugs to be launched at speeds of up to mach 8. While extremely powerful, the recoil mitigators and inertial dampeners are not designed to handle such a force, with most of the blunt recoil force being dealt to the user.
