10mm Semi-automatic Pistol
A simple clip fed pistol manufactured to use the common 10mm round. Due how common the round is and how many small manufacturers produced weapons before, during, and after Fall-time chaos... the exact model is not immediately knowable or not important. There is nothing terribly distinguishing about this weapon.

Rifles
10mm Semi-automatic Rifle

Heavy Weapons
Crazy Weapons
Quite simply these are weapons are just too ridiculous to be really useful. Most are prototypes, weird customized items, or just unique creations whose usability is questionable.
.50 BMG Revolver The "Mini-Howie". The sheer power of the round used for the weapon is astonishing, but the fact that's someone put it into a revolver frame is frightening. This weapon can only be wielded with any sense of safety by someone with at least a 10 strength. Even then, unless the user has a some kind of external bracing, cybernetics, or robotics they endure some nasty sprangs and other strain injuries. The weapon is believed to have been manufactured a mere engineering curiosity rather than for actual use. The weapon is extremely rare due to the limited production run. There have been only a few people known to own this weapon: A Mechtic, an Elite Red Gear, a very large Green, and an Alchemist Magi. Note: The Alchemist Magi doesn't use .50 BMG rounds in totality, but the casing and firing charge as a means to mix and direct various chemical/magical concoctions.
| Action | Cost | Check |

| Single Shot (5d10 + 25) | 3 AQP | Strength of 10, Ranged->Firearms->Pistol->Revolver |
