Description: A double-barreled weapon with a large and heavy casing, one barrel located over the other. The weapon has four settings: Stun, single-shot, alternating shot, or automatic fire. When set to single-shot, it fires both barrels simultaneously when the firing button is pressed. When set to alternating shot, it fires one barrel per button press. When set to automatic fire, it fires alternating shots from each barrel so long as the button is pressed, with a fire rate comparable to a light repeater. A single barrel deals the damage of a heavy blaster. The blaster accepts its power packs forward of the pistol grip, both of them aligned side-by-side like a second grip (and usable as such, for someone who needs two hands to effectively wield the double blaster). Each power pack provides its respective barrel with fifty shots if the rechargeable kind, eighteen if the single-use variety.

Nice weapon! Although in my personal opinion I believe there should only be alternating or autmatic fire, and not both. But that's just me...you don't need to change it if you don't want to unless the admin who checks this stuff says so.

That's like saying a weapon shouldn't have a semiautomatic and an automatic setting. Both have very distinct purposes.

 

[Demiurge]

Considering canon blasters have operated identically to this (minus the upper barrel, as opposed to the side-by-side), this tech doesn't need explicit approval. It's standardized enough to pass on its own
