The Verpine Shatter RIfle is an incredibly high powered Slugthrower rifle created by the Verpine species. It uses magnetic fields to fire small slugs at supersonic speeds, producing a distinctive and audible crack as the round breaks the speed of sound. While the rounds used in this weapon are relatively small, it's railgun like firing speed allows it to impact a target with immense force and inflict great kinetic damage. They are rare outside the Roche Asteroid Field, and incredibly fragile.
Verpine Shatter Rifle has been loaded with Armor-Piercing rounds. High ballistic velocity, combined with a tungsten rod core, makes this round particularly effective at punching through standard body armor.
Verpine Shatter Rifle has been painted in a desert camoflage scheme. Every component and surface of the weapon has been applied with a mingled pattern of brown tones so that it better blends in with a desert environment.
