| The Armat Systems Mark Two M41A Pulse Rifle, colloquially known as the M41A MK2, is the standard issue combat rifle utilized by the United States Colonial Marine Corps. Since it replaced the Mark One in the early 2170s, this rifle has found its ways into the hands of America's finest from Earth to the furthest corners of the Network. This sturdy rifle makes up the backbone of nearly all USCMC fighting forces, and with good reason - it is reliable, cheap, and deadly. Chambered in 10x24mm caseless and boasting a large amount of customization, most marines wouldn't be caught dead without their rifle. The stock version comes equipped with potent Armat U1 Underslung Grenade Launcher and forty round magazines. For those who find themselves faced with difficult situations, the M41A MK2 also possesses a fire selector, allowing for single fire or three round burst operation, a feature which the M41A MK1 notably lacks. Whether you're crawling through mud in a backwater shake n' bake or sweeping through an urban warzone, you'll want the M41A MK2 Pulse Rifle by your side.
"I tell you what, the Mark Two gets a lot of shit, what with it looking like a squirt gun and all, and some people may swear by the older model, but I've seen a lot of CLF dropped with this thing. The advertising campaign was flashy and high command tried to shove the things down our throats when they got shipped in, but this sure as hell ain't no toy. In the right hands and in numbers, this thing can kick some serious ass, especially if you've got your fun-switch on. But don't believe anything they tell you about that goddamned grenade launcher, the manual may talk about marines firing it four hundred yards away and blowin' some poor farmer's left pinky off with pinpoint accuracy, but you'll be lucky if you can get your HEDP ten yards, never mind a hundred." - Lance Corporal Joseph Anderson |
