Pale Rider Arms will happily supply you with the latest in infantry combat systems, from the M25 High Velocity Assault Rifle to our latest powered battle armor, the Tetsu no Kami.

M25 HVAR

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v652/blaesa/PRA%20junk/M25BullpupRifle.jpg

Length: 560mm
Barrel Length: 491mm
UGL Barrel Length: 214mm
Cartridge: 6mm x 50mm high velocity caseless, 30mm grenade
Muzzle Velocity: 5000 fps
Ammuntion: 60 6mm, 6 30mm grenades
Modes of Fire: Safe, Semi Auto, 3 round burst, full auto, grenade
Mass (Empty): 4.1 kg
Mass (Fully Loaded): 6.42 kg
Features: Recessed top mounting rail, integral smartgun system
Cost: 2700 USD (includes set of smartgun goggles)

The successor to the popular M22 series HVAR, the M25 was designed as a lighter version of the M22, while maintaining its accuracy and firepower. In order to meet these goals, a bull-pup configuration was adopted, shrinking the over all size of the weapon. The 40mm grenade launcher was replaced with the smaller 30mm variant, not only reducing weight but increasing logistical efficiency, as it shares its ammunition with the GL series of launchers. Other features were improved, notably the addition of a full integral smartgun system, as well as a large magazine.

Akuma Powered Battle Armor

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v652/blaesa/Akumapowerarmor.png

The second in the PRA line of powered battle armor, the Akuma is at the pinnacle of PRA technology. Incorporating a wide variety of systems into its three meter frame, the Akuma is ready for anything.

Armament
Continuing in the tradition of PRA multipeds, the Akuma is equipped with a single power armor-grade universal weapons mount, which replaces the armor’s primary hand and forearm. This system is capable of mounting a variety of weapons, which include:
13mm machine gun (PRA GPHMG variant)
20mm chaingun
40mm Automatic Grenade Launcher
Iron Rain Gatling Shotgun (10 gauge)
30mm high velocity battle rifle
Thunderclap 60mm cannon
Ammunition for the weapon systems is for the most part belt-fed, with ammunition stored in a heavily armored backpack.

The second arm is unarmed, although the hand is capable of a full range of motion and thus is capable of using most weapons intended for infantry. The Akuma above is shown with a modified PRA shock bokken and chaingun.

PRA has also experimented with a series of back-mounted weapons, with limited success. While not yet included in the Akuma’s load out, Pale Rider Arms has high hopes that a later version may mount these weapons.

Interface
Included in the Akuma is a standard PRA datajack, allowing the pilot to plug directly into the power armor and operate it via direct neural interface. As usual, the armor features full ASIST (artificial sensory induction system technology), and prevents neural signals from the pilot’s brain from reaching his body, thus preventing injury. The pilot sits inside the chest of the armor, his legs extending to the upper greaves. His arms are contained entirely within the torso, and his head is contained directly below the helmet, which serves as a sensor platform and general target.

Sensors
The Akuma boasts a full sensor suite, with visible spectrum and infrared cameras scattered across the armor (one cluster in the head, one on the back, and one in the chest). The head also contains ultrasonic sensors, used to detect opponents using high grade optical camouflage. Also integrated into the armor is a full smartgun system, providing precision targeting information to the operator.

Armor
The Akuma provides an excellent degree of protection to its pilot, with up to seven centimeters of composite armor between the pilot and the outside world. The armor also features optional OLED camouflage, allowing it to act as an extremely effective sniper.

Power and Propulsion
Continuing in the tradition of other PRA power armor, the Akuma is powered by a polonium RTG, the same model as that found in the Tetsu no Kami. The half kilo of polonium provides power for up to six months before needing to be refueled. The RTG is, of course, heavily shielded.

The Akuma uses a unique method of propulsion: Instead of relying on servos and pistons like many primitive suits of power armor, the Akuma features a complete artificial musculature, precisely duplicating the range of movements of the human body using electroactive polymer artificial muscles (EPAM). By running an electric current through these materials, bundles can be made to expand and contract, flawlessly simulating the actions of the human body.

The Cost
The Akuma is available for the cost of 500,000 USD.

Crookfur Consultancies are pround to present the following entries:

For the Assault rifle requirement we can offer a rnage of options Ranging from the brand new high tech SX23A1 Caseless assault rifle to the slightly older but very popular and reliable S1A5.

SX23A1 Caseless Assault rifle
http://www.meatballs.terminator.org.uk/crookfur/images/SX23A1basic.jpg

Round: 6.6x48mm Caseless
Rate of fire: 800rpm
Barrel length: 550mm
Rifle twist: 1/5.5inchs
Overall length: 1190mm (stock extended)/ 940mm(stock folded)
Weight (gun empty): 3.8kg
Magazine capacity: 30rounds
Fire modes: Safe/Semi/Full Auto

Mechanism description:
Uses a falling breach block mechanism, similar to that of the Steyr ACR and G11 PDW. From an empty, uncocked gun the magazine is inserted and the charging handle worked. This lowers the breach block and pushes a round backwards from the magazine, when the round has been fed the breach block is moved upwards into the firing position in line with the barrel and the hammer cocked, the gun is now ready for firing. On pulling the trigger the hammer is released firing the round and a portion of the propellant gas drives a gas blow back mechanism to lower the breach block, load it, raise it and recock the hammer. A portion of the propellant gas is also used to drive forward a weighted piston under the barrel, the movement of this piston is synchronised with the main mechanism and is designed to counteract the recoil forces generated by the rearward movement of the mechanism. A further device is installed so that when a magazine runs dry the weapon mechanism pauses with the breach block in the down position and the feeding leaver ready to load another round, on insertion of a fresh magazine the loading action is completed. This “hold open” system can be disengaged by working the charging handle to uncock the weapon In the event of a misfire or dud the unfired round is pushed out of the rear of the chamber and ejected from the bottom of the weapon by a manual cocking of the weapon.

Rifle Construction:
Most of the body is manufactured from high grade polymer with most components of the mechanism being milled from steel or high grade titanium alloys, the barrel consists of a lightweight titanium overwrap with a Molybdenum-Rhenium (Mo-Re) liner for increased service life and general wear resistance.

Gun Features:
The SX23A1 features a highly effective muzzle brake which acts to reduce felt recoil by as much as 35%, this combined with the “balanced” action system and the already acceptable recoil forces of the ammunition make the rifle very comfortable to shoot. In terms of modularity the SX23A1 features the latest version of Crookfur's advanced Rail Interface System (RIS). Known as Smart-RIS (SRIS), not only does it allow power to be supplied any compatible device from a large high capacity battery in the pistol grip but it allows attached “smart” devices such as as aiming systems and programmable grenade launchers to interface with one another without the need for additional wiring.
Finally standard equipment for the SX23A1 includes a bayonet mounting point, 4x Combat sight with iron sight backup, and a threaded barrel can be revealed by removing the muzzle brake allowing the use of suppressors and silencers.

Ammunition:
The SX23A1 uses the new advanced 6.6x48mm CFC caseless round. Standard loading is a 130grain boat tailed FMJ round that offers exceptional performance out to more than 780m (round is super sonic to about 1000m) Alternative loadings include a reduced recoil 113grain round or an extended range Penetration Performance Improved (PPI) 150grain round.

In all its loadings 6.6x48mm CFC outperforms 7.62x51mm ammunition in terms of penetration and effective range whilst still retaining more than acceptable recoil levels.

Price: $1150
Options:
Full fixed stock in place of folding stock : $100
M371 Digital sight: $1750
AM5A3 20mm Multirole tactical launcher: $650
AM3A5 40mm grenade launcher. $550


The S1A5 Evolved Assault rifle
http://www.meatballs.terminator.org.uk/crookfur/images/CFARS1A5.jpg
Round: 6.25x43mm
Weight: 4.7kg (empty magazine)
Magazine capacity: 30 rounds
Length: 790mm
Barrel length: 570mm
Rate of fire: 650 rounds per minute
Max effective range: 600m (with sight).
Add-ons: Equipped as standard with 4x SUSAT optical sight and back up iron sights, these can be replaced with just about any other sighting system using the Rail Interface System (RIS).
Forward hand guard rails can accept juts about any grenade launcher including the M203.

The S1A5 is the very latest version of the Crookfur S1 assault rifle, one of the first major weapons system to use an intermediate cartridge. Using the almost ballistically optimum 6.25x43mm round, which offers performance vastly superior to 5.56mm NATO and at certain ranges in excess of that offered by 7.62x51mm NATO yet balanced by recoil barely more than that generated by 5.56mm NATO, the S1A5 offers exceptional accuracy whilst being a very comfortable rifle to use.
The new A5 model offers a number of improvements: the introduction of a fully modular RIS with 4 rail positions, the first available RIS with integrated power supply (basically the rifle has a big battery in the pistol grip that is connected to a number of "outlet" points on the RIS, these outlets are completely isolated when not in use so no chance of random shocks off the rifle, at the moment the number of compatible add-ons is limited to a single digital sighting system i am working on, but if you buy production rights I'm sure we can come up with a few ideas) and offers full compatibility with the new composite cased 6.25mm ULTIMATE ammo (it can still use conventional brass cased ammo), 6.25mm ULTIMATE offers even better performance than the standard 6.25mm ammo and is 35% lighter per round.

Costs:
Rifle with SUSAT sight: $900

We currently have a range of new small arms in development using our new caseless ammunition if you would be interested, unfortunatly no images are currently availble for these designs but we can rush information if required.

We woudl also like to present our back catalogue of equipment where we hope you can find soemthign to suit your needs, link (http://www.meatballs.terminator.org.uk/crookfur/)

For those going 'FT? but i only sell MT', let me explain.

I am FT, simply because i have interstellar capable starships. Future Tech. but my armies still usemostly modern or near modern weapons. The most advanced weapon my armies have is the 'Plas-Lite', which uses concentrated radiation to make it like a laser. Otherwise i still use modern weapons, like the rifles and such.

OOC: Ah. No problems then. The M25 should still do decently (poorly over all, but decent considering you're using an MT slugthrower), what with the high velocity cartridge giving you enough oomph to penetrate some armor.
Asperitas
10-07-2006, 23:25
Due to the growing amount of G12 variations made by Asperitas due to the weapons reliability, adaptability and stylishness it has made its made into many different Asperitan military roles as well as keeping it's place as a peice of eye candy worth spending money on.

And so, all variations ever produced will be placed here for viewing or purchasing if they are released for purchase.

Paratrooper Variant

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v145/KGBFaTaLsHoT/G12A3.png

// Abstract //

The G12 is the next, and first generation assault rifle for the Asperitan Armed Forces, or the AAF. Over several dozen years of learning and understanding the mechanics of the Assault rifle, and the most successful designs the Asperitan research department came up with this weapon. At the forefront of plastics, polymers, and light weight metals this rifle was born.

The rifle uses a bullpup configuration, following the recent rise of bullpup rifles, but attempts to capitalize on the configuration to increase potential muzzle velocity, allowing for greater penetration. It also relies on caseless ammunition, as opposed to cased ammunition to no longer risk jamming and if the need arise have an ultra high possible ROF to hose down targets in lead. The G12 also sports a fully modular barrel which can easily and quickly be changed out in less than a minute if the need arise. The weapon it’s self is fully modular as well, the body made for quick field stripping for adjustment of the RPM.

This rifle over the years has become a favorite amount Asperitan soldiers because it simply never jams, is a breeze to clean and maintain, the ability to quickly change out the barrel, it’s perfect length of not being overly long and so to be cumbersome.

The point of choosing 5.7mm ammunition was out of logistics. It was decided that after several hundred meters the bullet would begin to tumble causing an astounding amount of hydrostatic shock though not fatality knocking out the Opfor and two other soldiers. A medic, and a soldier to help him off the field, meaning 3 soldiers for one bullet, maybe 4 soldiers if the Opfor requires a second helper to be dragged off the field. Another reason was that it easily could become Super Sonic and perform better as an armor piercing round than say 7.62 as the size causes more friction due to it’s diameter.

Also a small heavy density steel rod weighs down the weapon near the fore-grip in which a small knob which can be turned can distribute weight according to the users prefrence. Otherwise, it is perfectly distributed upon standard issue.

The G12-A3 Sports a folding stock, and shortest barrel as well as the ability to remove the Iron Balancing rod due to it's common use in paradrop missions and carbine like usage. It also sports an improved flash-hider and the use of 4.7mm for reduced recoil as well as an improved magazine size to 60 rounds.

Also Asperitan Novac Lo Carry Transparent Blue Holo Sights make up the standard issue Iron Sights.

G4 Sub-Machine Gun
// Abstract //

Due to the necessity for a weapon to replace the current Machine Pistol arming officers and pilots and such due to it’s unreliability, weight, and size making it a bit uncontrollable the G4 was made to replace it.

The G4 excelled in being visually pleasing, accurate, small, powerful and reliable. It was to replace the MP5 in current use and did an excellent job at it using patented quad recoil springs arrangement allows for decreased felt recoil and increased service life of the Machine Pistol. The frame of the weapon is made out of almost entirely high strength polymers. The weapon also features a large trigger guard for comfortable shooting even with gloves. The G4 is issued with quick-detachable silencers, Novac Lo Carry Transparent Blue Holosighthttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v145/KGBFaTaLsHoT/Gun%20Pictures/Sights.jpg, made in USA by Knight's Armaments Co, and with laser pointing module, which installs on the under barrel, or above the barrel RAIL systems. Despite being ridiculously reliable it’s light, and comfortable to wield and fire making it a favorite amongst gun aficionados. Also the weapon is intended with use of the 4.7x39mm high velocity ammunition which claims 100% penetration of CRISAT body Armour (1.6mm of Titanium plus 20 layers of Kevlar) at the distance of 280 meters.

The weapon features a comfortable soft polymer fore-grip which can be detached to reveal a medium length RAIL mount directly under the barrel for the attachment of tactical grips or laser sight or any other equipment which may be equipped on a RAIL system. Despite that the rifle also features a fully detachable and folding stock for comfortable shooting, or light weight, unhampered spraying on the go. The gun it’s self is athstetically pleasing and light, as well as being a scaled down version of the G-12 Asperitan standard issue assault rifles featuring all of it’s pros and less of it’s Cons. One of them being size and lack of recoil dampening. Also, the weapon if asked, can be made metal detector proof. In which integral parts are all changed to super high strength polymers and ceramics which not only makes the weapon heavier and not as reliable as it should be but it also makes it stealth and perfect operations. Ammunition of course isn't detectable as it is caseless, unless your using a ferrous metal cased/core bullet. Despite that this weapon is a prime choice for Special Operations personelle or Pilots due to it's reliability, simple construction, light weight, and comfortable forgrip and normal grip as well as folding stock. Also the Blue transparent sights make pointing and shooting a breeze, and even easier for repeated shooting because the sight is not obstrucing the target or surrounding it. It is giving the best of both worlds with none of the cons and so repeated firing is as easy as single shots and just as accurate as well.

Not only that but AS 4.7 and 5.7 ammunition comes with a small laminate which completely vaporizes with heat and get wiped clean from the chamber with the expanding gasses. The laminate acts as a waterproofer, and keeps in enought oxygen to allow for oxidation and combustion of the grains. Which in turn means this weapon can theoretically be fired in the vaccum of space or in underwater conditions(Not Recommended). Another reason 4.7 and 5.7 were chosen as the weapons main ammunition choices were that the bullets begin to tumble after a rather short distance causing much hydrostatic shock. Which in turn equals lots, and lots of stopping power, and not only that but range shouldn't be a concern with bullet tumbling as range would be concerned with use of Rifles or SMG's. The weapon also featues ajustable barrel weight rods which are are packaged with the gun. The rods are weighed at 5 lbs meaning, when inserted, make the gun 10.5 lbs total. The small cast-iron knob located just above and infront of the trigger guard can move the rod to the users prefrence making kick and uncomfortable felt recoil only small niuscences.
