+  description: Hefty and unforgiving are both words you might describe this unit of a sidearm with. It's heavier than most laser pistols, but features better ergonomics than usual. It's a heavily modified Pulse-pattern pistol, using a technology kept confidential at the highest level. The sturdy metal frame is engraved in a few places, along the front cover it reads 'EPU-001', and the grip has a shiny NT logo made of pure brushed terran gold. The only thing you can tell, is that it's almost certainly a weapon for person of high status. Are you supposed to have this..?
