Silber Adler, which name originated from Germany, is one of the favorite creations of weapon talent Amanita. Andean Condor, a South American firearm manufacturer, later purchased this patent. This heavy, bizarre-looking and devilish large-caliber pistol can easily inflict great damage to human flesh, and penetrate through prosthetic arms & robots' thin armors just like punching a cardboard. Although its horrific recoil has limited rate of fire (RoF), its long range accuracy is still remarkable.
As its name suggests, "Colubris" is a small compact pistol. It was created by Andean Condor's CEO Andrea's father Andrea Sr. as a gun designer's graduation work. Based on the classic Browning M1911 pistol, he has greatly altered its original layout, reduced its size and weight significantly , used double recoil springs to reduce the recoil force, and adapted a large capacity magazine, with extensibility also greatly improved. After setting up Andean Condor, Andrea Sr.'s early focus was on sophisticated sports guns, and he didn't add this somewhat clunky but decent pistol to the product line.
When Andrea took over his father's business, the Thoule Group launched their first weapon 3D printer. He further improved the design of the entire gun to accommodate 3D printing production and added threads to the muzzle to screw a silencer directly onto the muzzle. Andean Condor only sold "Colubris" blueprints and never sold them as whole guns, so there is no such thing as a "standard original factory-built Colubris."
While the Colubris with a silencer is ideal for special operations and law enforcement, it is rarely seen in police forces or mercenary groups. However, gangs are its biggest users. Resigned to the proliferation of Colubris blueprints, Andrea hopes his father's work will attract users to Andean Condor's higher-end guns.
After spotting Condor's success with its Colubris blueprint, Arkhangai Anda acted promptly to design a compact pistol in less than two months. It is based on a police firearm that comes close to Colubris' performance. It is ridiculously simple, to the point where it looks like a toy gun at first glance. Despite its modest accuracy and durability, it is equipped with some degree of armor penetration.
The name "Huntsman" comes from the basic Swiss Army knife. Firstly, because it is as portable as a Swiss Army knife. Secondly, its firing part is a collected module. Everything can be freely replaced, including the bottom stock, barrel, and other attachments. Users can use the accessory blueprint provided by Arkhangai Anda, or create their own ones. This arm has great room for modification and creativity.
Huntsman is designed specifically for the 3D printing market. Huntsman's blueprint is a kit, with more than a dozen basic accessories available in addition to the firing structure. At half the price of the Hummingbird blueprint, it has been an instant hit.
Jericho is a kind of compact submachine gun. In fact, it is a full-automatic pistol that is ideal for close combat. Weapons of similar concepts appeared during WWI, but were then long-forgotten.
Trench warfare has come back to life as mercenaries and other armed forces have been locked in a stalemate. Automatic pistols are light and capable of firing a lot of bursts in a short period of time, making it difficult for the enemy to defend against. They are perfect for close combat in the trenches and can be used by stormtroopers when their main weapon is out of ammo, or in special operations. In street fights, they work just as well and cost much less than the usual submachine guns.
Through big data analysis that studied recent combat data and the preferences of combatants, Arkhangai Anda revived the concept of SMGs and marketed it as the Devil Jericho. It was a huge success as the company's second-best-selling product. Compared to former models, the submachine guns utilizing cyber-era weapon technology have a better cooling performance, securing a more consistent rate and a longer duration of fire, alongside a sturdier overall structure. The inherent muzzle jumps and poor controllability of automatic pistols still remain; but acceptable in close combat.
Many key gang members would carry a Jericho as their side weapon. Amanita and Eriksson found a new way to fight with it— carrying four Jerichos at one time, fire with two, each in one hand, and throwing them away when their magazines are empty, then replacing them with two full ones. Hit and run, never stay in any prolonged gunfight.
