Walther 40mm Heavy Assault Rifle

The Walther Heavy Assault Rifle is the companies only sojourn into Exo class rifles. Walther has long been known for its superior rifles and sniper equipment. The Heavy Assault Rifle is an Exo scale weapon following in that tradition. Although there are two variants of this weapon on the Exo market, the only difference between them is the inclusion of the Walther Optics Assembly. The Walther fires specially manufactured 40mm caseless armor piercing Teflon rounds. Although the breach can handle traditional 40mm cased rounds, the Walther performs best with the custom ammunition it was designed for. The rounds themselves are unique in that the Teflon tip encases a hollow point that mushrooms moments after armor penetration to cause as much collateral damage as possible. The Walther Rifle itself has a ‘blank’ grip equally well suited to a left hand or right hand grip configuration, when needed the breach can purge to the left or the right as needed. For sniper activity a smaller then normal clip is used, holding only 5 rounds, this is to reduce the weight and improve the balance of the gun. The ‘common’ variant of the rifle has a larger clip of 15 rounds.
