Quote:The magsec is a semi-automatic firearm capable of sustained, accurate fire at ranges beyond what conventional sidearms can offer. A high-speed slider feeds current to a magazine of hyper velocity projectiles that are discharged with minimal separation, maximizing energy efficiency and reducing flux shear to produce a weapon with lethal kinetic potential.
Having overcome early reliability issues, manufacturers have since taken advantage of the weaponGÇÖs modular design; the magsec has been made available in multiple combat configurations GÇô including optical sights and silenced operation GÇô and is in widespread service throughout the cluster.

Quote:The flaylock is a snub-nosed pistol designed to fire one-inch direct attack missiles. Typically, the weapon is armed with pack-loaded dumbfire or seeker missiles effective against infantry and armored targets, but is fully compatible with a broad range of missile types, making it one of the most versatile sidearm weapons on the battlefield.
Seeker missiles utilize pre-launch lock-on and rudimentary self-guidance to track designated targets, though finite propellant limits the practical engagement zone to short ranges. Although less effective against shielded targets, the tandem warhead allows penetration of armor layers before detonation, amplifying the effectiveness of the narrow fragment stream and maximizing each projectileGÇÖs lethality.

Point being that this is the description on dumbfire flaylocks and descriptions are not to be trusted.

What's the point of silenced operation when firing unsilenced weapons don't make you show up on the Tac Net? I'm pretty certain that our dropsuits should be able to pick up and locate the origin of gunfire; why people don't light up when they shoot has always made me wonder.

Building upon its copious experience with microscale rail weaponry, Kaalakiota has further refined the technology to produce what is commonly regarded as the most powerful handgun on the market.

Oh wow, so it's a Magnum that decreases health after each shot (assuming the description is accurate)? I could see that being a really neat twist to the pistol.

Little confused by the lore descriptions.
MagSec SMG is described as a "semi-automatic"...that means it's not an SMG, it's a pistol. That's a bit confusing; I thought it was intended as a Breach SMG type weapon.
The Bolt Pistol is described as being made by Kaalakiota...but the MagSec is the Caldari Close Quarters Weapon?? |

Oh, I'm sure it's just a copywriter cocking up a description by using words without double-checking their meanings. (Happens to the best of us!)
On a side note:
In line with recent trends, I fully expect the MacSec to have the same DPS as the SMG, but more accuracy and double the range.
