| 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 the United 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 it's a backwater shake n' bake in the mud and rain or a CLF hotspot in an urban center, the trust M41A MK2 can be found in the hands of the marines on site.
"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. That damn grenade launcher though, don't believe anything the manual tells you. It goes on and on about how it can hit some poor farmer's left pinky at four hundred yards, but in reality, you'll be lucky if your HEDP makes it ten yards." - Lance Corporal Joseph Anderson |
