(Yeah, this is here solely because of that other thread.)
NAM-M1 ‘Waffle Iron'
Designer/Manufacturer: Nepleslia Arms and Munitions
(Suggested) Price: 6000 KS
Individual Component Costs:
Weapon Core: 3000 KS
Weapon Magazine: 1000 KS
Ten year Warrantee: 1500 KS
Smart Stock: 500KS
Folding Stock: 10KS
Nomenclature Information
Type: Centrifugal Splat Rail Gun.
Role: The Waffle Iron was designed as an anti-material weapon useful in breaching doors or killing tanks/power armors through internal damage. The weapon is capable of of atmospheric and space based use though underwater and dense environment usage is strongly discouraged.
Length: 3 feet, up to 5 with extended stocks.
Weight: 10kg empty, 400kg fully loaded.
Discharge Information
Projection/ammo type: Magnetically propelled dimpled spheres of soft plastic explosive with nanomachine detonators in suspension.
Firing Mechanism: The weapon core accelerates the projectiles in the ring like magazine until trigger is depressed at which point one round is further accelerated out the centrifugal magazine and down the barrel at the target. Nanomachines are programmed to trigger detonation after the round has left the barrel and once certain requirements are reached such as impact and explosive spread.
Caliber: 2.25in diameter dimpled spheres.
Effective Range: 785 meters (friction environment)
Maximum Range: 3000m (friction environment)
Muzzle Velocity: 800m/s (friction environment) 5000 m/s (vacuum)
Muzzle Blast: deep 'thud' sound
Firing Mode(s): Semi-Auto
Recoil: None
Ammo Description:
Name: Splat Ball
Visual Description: A dull gray, red, or black sphere 2.25in in diameter with dimples (golf ball) around the exterior. The rounds are held in hollow metal ring created of smart metals The ring is taken out of the core to be restocked with ammo and can be clipped back on.
Ammo: 12 rounds
Damage Description: Impact flattens the sphere flat against the target before nanomachines detonate. The blast wave from the explosive is channeled forward and back of the point of impact, in theory knocking back the target or shattering the insides.
Weapon Mechanisms:
Safeties: A switch on the left side of the weapon under a hard plastic sleeve controls safety, off, and on modes. Off disables the weapon while safety disables the trigger and spins up the rounds to ready mode. On enables full weapon function.
Weapon sights: A simpel Iron sights are built into the top of the weapon while a target acquisition camera located below the barrel can transmit wireless information or be plugged into the user.
Smart Stock: The smart stock extends and contours to the user's body type to create a perfect fit every time through use of smart metals and foams in conjunction with nanomachine suspensions hooked into the weapon's onboard computer and power systems. The stock clips onto a port on the back of the core and is held tight by smart metal interactions.
Core: The core contains all major components from the trigger, to the computer, power system, and rail systems. The core is entirely self contained and is not intended to be repaired or maintained. The core contains enough power for 5000 shots. Upon draining of the power the core is to be replaced in its entirety.
Maintenance Information:
Field Maintenance Procedure: Scrub magazine and core component contact areas with a mild acid. (no less than PH4) Internal core has no serviceable parts, opening will void warrantee.

History:
The Waffle Iron was made just for the hell of it in YE 29 to help test out the NAM production, testing, research, and development capabilities prior to major operations. The weapon was also designed not to be serviceable with the intention of keeping users dependent on NAM for the weapon to help keep it out of the hands of gangs and thugs thought the business plan for the weapon does include replacing core components for free upon request.
