SOCAR-1A TAlon (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v335/Snow_Fall/Guns%20n%20Ammo/SOCARfront.jpg)
Ammunition: 7.8mm Caseless Explosive/Armor Piercing, 30mm grenades
Magazine capacity: 30 7.8mm, 5 30mm
Action: Gas operated/rotating bolt
Muzzle velocity: 850 meters per second
Maximum range: 3,500 meters
Maximum effective range: 900 meters
Rate of fire:
Semiautomatic: 40 rounds per minute
Burst: 120 rounds per minute
The Talon is a more powerful rifle than its predecessor, the aging SOAR, which had been in use for years but recieved little interest when brought to open market. The Talon improves on the abilities of the SOAR, increasing bullet caliber, doubling grenade power and lowering weight and price.
The Talon uses a sensor package smaller than most of the other Sigman rifles. It contains a millimeter-wave radar, rangefinder and thermal sensor. These are tied directly into the scope, which can use the information from the sensor to increase the soldiers awareness of the battlefield. These sensors jointly use a single lens at the front of the rifle above the barrel.
The clip is located at the butt of the rifle and uses a feeding mechanism closely related to that of the HK G11, where the bullet faces downwards but is turned at a 90 degree angle, loading it. If the caseless round fails to fire, it is ejected through an exit as the next bullet enters. The Raptor fires in single shot or three round bursts. The barrel of the Talon appears oversized from the outside, but is simply a flash supression muzzle over the barrel.
The grenade launcher is a 30mm underslung integrated system. While less caliber than the M203 grenade launcher, the Talons grenade launcher comes with a 5 round clip, which is capable of firing all 5 grenades within 4 seconds. This makes the overall offensive power greater than the M203.
Ammunition for the launcher is varied. It can fire all the normal types of grenades (WP, HE, Frag) as well as a Sigman favorite, the FireFrag, which uses high amounts of shrapnel as well as WP for a truly devastating closed area weapon.
Most of the weight located in the SOAR was in its bulky sensor compartment, which made its weight exceed that of most other rifles. The Talon weighs much less, coming in at 9.5 pounds.
The cost of a single SOCAR-1A is $950 USD
A crate of 5000 7.8mm ammo plus 500 30mm Assorted Grenades is $2000
SOSAW-2B "Shredder"

SOSAW-2B Shredder (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v335/Snow_Fall/Guns%20n%20Ammo/SOSMG1.jpg)
Ammunition: 6.8mm Caseless Explosive
Magazine capacity: 100 6.8mm
Action: Gas operated/rotating bolt
Muzzle velocity: 800 meters per second
Maximum range: 1500 meters
Maximum effective range: 700 meters
Rate of fire:250 rounds per minute
The SOSAW-2B Shredder is quite the devastating weapon to be used in a support role. It's use of explosive rounds gives it it's name, capable of shredding entire squads of infantry if caught off guard. The hundred round drum magazine allows for sustained fire for roughly 25 seconds, not firing fast enough for the kick to be too high, allowing for fairly accurate firing. The Shredder is the perfect weapon for armies utilizing anything less than full body armor, and will still instill fear in those that do.
The Shredder's design was originally inspired the capability of the SOVAIA-1A anti-infantry vehicle to kill as brutally and effectively as possible. The explosive rounds are unlike the explosive armor piercing rounds used in other Sigman weapons, providing less penetration, but a much larger impact. Each round is tipped with a shaped charge designed to go off A single round has been proven to be capable of removing an extremity or relocating organs on a group vacation. The effect is diminished on body armor, but still has enough power to dent the stronger armors in use, delivering several hundred pounds of pressure to the target, and is capable of breaking bones and pulverizing organs through standard bulletproof vest.
In the case of a dud, the round is ejected into a holding tray behind the magazine, where it can be emptied at a later time. The tray is reinforced as well as vented, in case of premature explosions. A detonating round is thereby registered as a noticable jerk in the weapon, instead of the weapon's lower areas detonating shrapnel into the user.
The Shredder is the B model of the SOSAW-2, the A model having been ruled as far too hazardous, with a problem involving explosions. The A model has been discontinued with no plans to go back to its production.
The cost of a single SOSAW-2B "Shredder" is $1250 USD
A crate of 10,000 rounds of 6.8mm Explosive is $1500 USD
Coming soon: Several more weapons. Stay tuned.
