Much like the starship designs, these items are here primarily for review by Mand'alor, but anyone with a Mandalorian character is welcome to post with suggestions or constructive criticism.
With an influx of new recruits and the Mandalorian war machine preparing for yet another war, the need for both effective and reliable weapons and equipment for each and every warrior has become paramount. While most Mando'ade carry and maintain their own array of unique and exotic personal equipment, the items listed here are largely for mass fabrication so that they can be issued to any warrior in need.

Name: Traycn'buurenaar "Firestorm" Repeater
Classification: Light Repeating Blaster Rifle
Manufacturer: MandalTech (subsidiary of MandalMotors)
Magazine/Power Cell Capacity: Tibanna Cartridge (250 rounds), Sig Cartridge (125 rounds)
Rate of Fire: Automatic
Description:
A design not unlike the famous WESTAR-M5 of the Clone Wars, the Firestorm is both reliable and powerful. As a light repeater, it was primarily intended to fill the role of a squad support weapon, but not surprisingly, has found much wider use within the Mandalorian ranks as a standard assault rifle. It is lightweight, easy to maintain and operate, and has an extremely high rate of fire. It is also easily modified, allowing operators to both upgrade and add on to the design at their discretion.

Name: Hettyc'bev "Burning Spike" Launcher
Designation: HB-6
Classification: Anti-Armor Weapon, Explosively Formed Projectile Launcher
Manufacturer: MandalTech (subsidiary of MandalMotors)
Magazine Capacity: 6
Rate of Fire: Semi-Automatic, Automatic
Description:
The HB-6 was designed as an inexpensive, lightweight, and portable alternative to bulkier anti-armor missile launchers, though it has significantly less range and no tracking capability. The six compact, explosively formed projectile warheads within each round have multiple mini-detonators that can be fired in varying arrangements causing different types of waveform in the explosive. This results in either a long-rod penetrator, an aerodynamic slug projectile, or multiple high-velocity fragments being formed after leaving the barrel. An alternate selector switch is used to prime the individual detonators, allowing the operator to choose which type of projectile is best suited for the current target and environment. Despite its highly heat resistant construction, the launcher is prone to overheating during continuous fire and without a significant cool down period, warping of the barrel and internal mechanisms is possible.
