The clip contains the power cell for the weapon and the supply of helium. The weapon has two modes of firing, which affect the number of rounds per clip. The weapon comes with a removable electronic scope for use at long range. The weapon must be either held with two hands if not in combat armor, or a single hand when in the HS-PD1-1a Anoka'ano Dahome (Combat Armor).

The Rotysa Tyokame Nortejo derives its power from a power cell in the magazine.
