SDC Weapons Manufacturers in and around the CS Territories

[shadrak]

The Coalition States generally restricts weapons in urban areas, especially the fortress cities, but in the frontier and rural areas private weapon ownership can even be encouraged by the Coalition States.



General/Common/Unknown manufacturers – There are several varieties of SDC weapons that appear throughout the Coalition States’ territory and North America that appear to lack a consistent manufacturer. Many people suspect that these weapons are produced in many of the local fabrication shops and operator’s garages spread across North America. The designs are almost always simple and are never as effective as a mass-produced firearm, but in the wilderness, you take what you can get.

Model: “Tuffman”
Cartridge: .410 bore Damage: 3D6 SDC Eff. Range: 225 feet
P.V.: 2 Feed: Single Shot Weight: 6 lbs.
Cost: 250 credits
Description: A cheaply made .410 break action shotgun. It is also capable of firing small BigBore rounds (1D6 MD). With the proper materials, any one with mechanical engineering and fabrication skill can create one easily. For individuals with more basic capabilities (field armorer, basic mechanics, etc.), it is challenging, and any attempt suffers a -25-35% skill penalty.

Model: “T-Square”
Cartridge: .380 Damage: 2D6 SDC Eff. Range: 150 feet
P.V.: 4 Feed: 45 rd mag Weight: 4 lbs.
Cost: 250 credits
Description: The T-Square can commonly be found in urban communities and, in its most fundamental form, it looks like a letter “T” with the magazine hanging below the action and barrel. A crude trigger is normally installed behind the magazine well and is depressed by the thumb rather than the index finger. The T-Square contains very few control components and always fires burst from an open bolt. The crudest of these weapons inflict a -2 to-hit penalty on the user and all but the most well-crafted variants inflict at least a -1 to-hit penalty. Some “T-Squares” are built to fire larger caliber rounds, but this can make them even harder to wield.

Perigor Arsenal – Perigor Arsenal, also known as “The Arsenal” is a semi-private arms manufacturer in the Coalition State of Chi-Town. It is a company that shortly emerged after the coming of the Rifts when a former NEMA military team consolidated the SDC weapons manufacturing equipment they could find throughout the area near where Chi-Town currently exists.
Perigor Arsenal is, effectively, the largest weapons manufacturer on the North American continent with manufacturing facilities spread throughout all of the Coalition States, and their weapons are ubiquitous throughout North America. Perigor effectively makes knockoff’s of 19th, 20th, and 21st Century fire arms that are purchased by “Pioneers” in the Coalition States. While these designs are almost completely identical to ancient, pre-Rifts models, they are constructed out of modern alloys.
Fully automatic versions of these weapons are only available with special licenses, and machinegun models are almost never approved outside of a police or local militia force.
Perigor Arsenal also produces a wide variety of ammunition including silver bullets, wooden bullets, bone bullets (jacketed), and stone bullets (jacketed). Perigor Arsenal also makes salt shotgun shells. Specialized bullets fired from pistols or rifles will jam the weapon on a to-hit roll of 4 or less. Shotguns will not jam when using specialized rounds.

Gothan Defense – Gothan Defense is a prolific producer of cheap firearms. Most Gothan weapons are ugly and very few are ergonomic because Gothan is most interested in producing effective firearms at low cost using commonly available parts. In fact, nearly 30-60% of any particular Gothan Firearm consists of parts sourced through common sources with only minor modification. An example is gun barrels; Gothan gun barrels are re-manufactured from heavy duty carbon steel pipes and many of the weapons’ low stress components are sourced from vehicle manufacturers.

Manufacturer and “Model”: Gothan Defense “GDCS/GDCX” Subcompact
Cartridge: .380/ 9mmP Damage: 2D6 SDC /3D6 SDC Eff. Range: 90 feet/ 120 feet
P.V.: 4/4 Feed: 7 rd mag/ 5 rd mag Weight: .5 lbs.
Cost: 200 credits
Description: This is a subcompact autopistol that is cheap and readily available. While it is cheaply made, it is very reliable. Suffers -1 to strike


Manufacturer and “Model”: Gothan Defense “GDPS/GDPX” Compact
Cartridge: .380/ 9mmP Damage: 2D6 SDC /3D6 SDC Eff. Range: 100 feet/ 120 feet
P.V.: 4/4 Feed: 10 rd mag / 8 rd mag Weight: 1 lb
Cost: 275 credits
Description: A very ugly, heavy, and bulky autopistol that is reliable and readily available.


Manufacturer and “Model”: Gothan Defense “GD24S/GD24X” Autopistol
Cartridge: 9mmP/ .45 ACP Damage: 3D6 SDC/ 4D6 SDC Eff. Range: 150 feet
P.V.: 4/4 Feed: 14 rd mag/ 9 rd mag Weight: 2 lbs.
Cost: 350 credits
Description: This larger cousin of the GDPS/GDPX is prized for its reliability. Still ugly, but the magazine capacity is significantly increased and the longer barrel and increased sight radius make it accurate at longer distances than the smaller pistol.

Manufacturer and “Model”: Gothan Defense “GD97S/GD97X” Tactical Carbine
Cartridge: 9mmP/ .45 ACP Damage: 2D10 SDC/ 2D12+2 SDC Eff. Range: 300 feet
P.V.: 4/4 Feed: 45 rd mag/ 30 rd mag Weight: 5.5 lbs.
Cost: 600 credits
Description: This ugly, bulky carbine enables a gives a shooter increased range and accuracy over a pistol and allows the shooter to use either WP: SMG or WP: Rifle (whichever provides best bonuses) in lieu of WP: Pistol.

Manufacturer and “Model”: Gothan Defense “GSD1” Self-Defense Shotgun
Cartridge: 12 gauge Damage: 4D6 SDC/ 5D6 SDC Eff. Range: 60 feet/ 160 feet
P.V.: 2/4 Feed: 7 rd mag. Weight: 8 lbs.
Cost: 1000 credits
Description: This is the most aesthetically pleasing of the Gothan Defense firearms, mostly because shotguns are already large and blocky. The GSD1 is a reliable magazine-fed pump action shotgun.

Manufacturer and “Model”: Gothan Defense “BigShot” Anti-Cop Weapon System
Cartridge: 75mm SDC explosive / 75mm MDC explosive
Damage: 1D10x100 SDC / 5D6 MD Eff. Range: 500 feet
P.V.: NA
Feed: Single Shot Weight: 6 lbs.
Cost: 3,000 credits; SDC explosive rounds are 500 credits, MDC explosive rounds are 3,000 credits
Description: The BigShot represents a dramatic departure from Gothan Defense’s normal firearm models. It is constructed in a similar manner, using readily available parts composed of low-grade, cheap materials, but it is essentially a large, reloadable rocket launcher using a High-Low pressure system to fire a large explosive round at a target. It takes 2 melee actions to reload the device and another melee action to fire it. Gothan Defense manufactures both an SDC and an MD explosive round for the weapon. There is a small backblast, so the firer should avoid using this weapon in enclosed spaces.

H & A Firearms – H & A Firearms is an “old-school” gun manufacturer that produces a variety of lower cost, high quality firearms. Generally, H & A Firearms are robust, heavy, and dependable. Their systems are generally simplistic and have a “Western” look and appeal.
There a few shops throughout the Coalition States territory that use traditional manufacturing and gunsmithing techniques and it is possible to get parts for these weapons shipped to a customer and assembled by a local gunsmith.
They are very popular (though relatively rare) in the Lone Star area and in the New West, but they are most common in the Coalition Territories where they are secretly (and illegally) manufactured; H & A Firearms are officially banned by the Coalition States as “cop-killers”, but they are in common use among the denizens of the ‘burbs and can be used by Coalition Military members with a permit from their commander or by residents of the Coalition’s rural communities with a permit from local government officials.
H & A often produces its own ammunition (often larger and heavier, but slower than more conventional rounds) including explosive rounds that are not as efficient as the explosive rounds produced by Northern Gun and Manistique Imperium. Instead of being three times as damaging as conventional SDC rounds, H & A explosive rounds are only twice as damaging as conventional SDC rounds.

DynaTec Industries – DynaTec is a higher concept manufacturer suspected of being owned by an unknown but wealthy Coalition citizen or group of citizens in part because of its technical nature and access to processes and resources and in part due to the fact that DynaTec has never had an issue with the Coalition authorities.
Unlike most other weapons manufacturers in the Coalition territory that produce for non-Coalition Army/Police consumers, DynaTec does not seem interested in developing technologies or weapon systems that might allow even limited competition with MDC weapons producers. DynaTec industries products are almost exclusively SDC products.
DynaTec most often uses Pre-Rifts calibers in its designs and also creates its own, more effective ammunitions. Northern Gun and Manistique Imperium Ram Jet and Explosive rounds are commonly available for use in DynaTec designs as well.

AimHi Ordinance – Produces custom weaponry based on New German Republic designs. Unlike most other small manufacturers, AimHi neither sources parts from large, non-weapon manufacturers nor does AimHi manage its own casting or forging operations. Instead, AimHi uses a collection of small “AutoForges” (like a 3D printer) to produce high quality parts. Because no one knows for sure where AimHi is manufactured it is a common joke that these weapons aren’t just sold out of the back of a van, they are made IN the van. This particular joke just might hold some truth.
AimHi also tends to use rare Pre-Rifts munitions that can be obtained from other ammunition suppliers (including the Black Market) with some munitions available as RamJet and Explosive rounds through Northern Gun and the Manistique Imperium.

Messic Custom Arms – John Messic, the owner of Messic Custom Arms, is an aged and experienced gunsmith working in the Coalition territory. He holds a special permit from the Coalition States to produce his weapons for use in the Coalition frontier.
Functionally, Messic Custom Arms weapons are very similar to the weapons produced by Viggo’s Custom Firearms of Char.
Use of his weapons is illegal in Coalition urban areas, but the Coalition does not enforce this restriction in the ‘Burbs unless the weapons are used against Coalition citizens or property.

Weapon Summit Hunting Rifle
Type Bolt-Action Hunting Rifle
Manufacturer Messic Custom Arms
Rate of Fire Bolt-Action (2 actions per shot)
Magazine Size 5
Cost 4,000 credits; 12,000 credits custom
Effective Range 2500 feet
Weight 7 lbs.
Munitions Cost/round Damage PV
.338 Lapua 7D6 7
Notes: Because of their precision craftsmanship, anyone firing a Summit bolt-action rifle receives a +1 to strike on aimed shots. However, when the weapon has been carefully custom designed for one specific individual, the character is +2 to strike on aimed shots. However, this is not a “standard” bonus to strike on aimed shots. For the purposes of dice rolls, these are Natural Bonuses to Strike, meaning that a die roll of 18, 19 or 20 on a 20-sided die, before other bonuses to strike are applied, is actually read as a Natural 20 and is a critical strike (inflicts double damage). This increases the lethality of the weapon, making it ideal for precision shots for big game hunting and sniping.

Weapon Apex Big Game Rifle
Type Large caliber hunting rifle
Manufacturer Messic Custom Arms
Rate of Fire Single shot only. Each shot counts as three melee attacks/actions; one action to fire, one action to open and reload the breach, and one action to close the breach and realign the weapon.

Effective Range 3500 feet
Weight 27 lbs.
Munitions Cost/round Damage PV

Notes Special Combat Bonuses: Because of their precision craftsmanship, anyone
firing a Provider single-shot rifle receives a + 1 to strike on aimed shots. In the case of the specific character for whom the weapon was custom-made, it provides a bonus of +2 to strike on aimed shots. However, this is not a “standard” bonus to strike on aimed shots. For the purposes of dice rolls, these are Natural Bonuses to Strike, meaning that a die roll of 18, 19 or 20, on a 20-sided die, before other bonuses to strike are applied, is actually read as a Natural 20 and is a critical strike (in this case, triple damage). This increases the lethality of the weapon, making it ideal for precision shots for Dinosaur hunting and sniping.
Special Penalties: Anyone firing the rifle that does not possess the skill W.P. Bolt-Action Rifle is automatically stunned by the recoil, taking 1D6 points of S.D.C. damage and also losing their next melee attack/action. Characters that do possess the skill must make a saving throw vs pain at a 10 or higher or suffer 1D6 points of S.D.C. damage from the recoil but are otherwise unaffected. Characters in M.D.C. body armor are unaffected by the damage but can still lose their melee action because of the intense recoil.

H.T.A.– High Tech Advantage (H.T.A.) is a small weapons manufacturer operating in the Coalition States. H.T.A. is owned an operated by a high-level operator/engineer. There are several workshops operating throughout the Coalition States. H.T.A. weapons are templated, but they are not mass produced. Many of the component must be cannibalized from other sources like Coalition M.D.C. weapons. H.T.A. focuses on the production of handheld, SDC gauss weapons that fire extremely small MDC projectiles (approximately .17 inches) at hypersonic speeds. These weapons contain an integrated power supply that is roughly the equivalent of a single E-Clip.

I.S.S. Armory – The ISS Armory is just a collection of almost 30 retired C.S. Technical Officers that are now employed as civilian support staff for the I.S.S. maintaining I.S.S. arms and armor. Several years ago, one of these armorers modified a C-18 pistol at the request of an I.S.S. officer that was unsatisfied with using the C-5 pistol as a sidearm in the city. The new C-18 was very effective as a sidearm for C.S. personnel that were not as familiar with Shotguns or Handguns and the I.S.S. eventually authorized the conversion of more than 2000 C-18’s to the C-18ISS. This would lead to several armorers coordinating with each other to modify several other weapons in the I.S.S. inventory after interviewing I.S.S. operatives about their preferences.

Weapon C-18ISS Laser Pistol
Description: The only functional difference between the C-18 and the C-18ISS is that the C-18ISS has an SDC setting.

Payload 10 MD blasts (3 SDC blasts equals 1 MD blast)

Weapon C-14ISS Laser Carbine
Description: The C-14ISS is dramatically changed from the original C-14 rifle. Like the C-18ISS, the C-14ISS has an SDC setting to allow for increased versatility in an urban environment, but the C-14ISS has also been shortened to allow the weapon to be used in tight confines. This has reduced the weight of the weapon, but it has also reduced its range. The original integrated nightvision scope has been replaced with an integrated close combat optic that provides a +1 bonus to strike on an aimed shot. The grenade launcher magazine has been reduced in size so that the weapon is better balanced.

Weight 8 lbs.

Weapon C-22 Pump Shotgun
Description: The C-22 is a 12-gauge semi-automatic shotgun designed from the ground up by I.S.S. Armory to provide specialized munitions to I.S.S. and NTSET agents operating in unusual environments.
The shotgun’s barrel is full-sized despite the weapon being only 28 inches long. The shotgun is a bullpup design that has a dual-magazine feed underneath the stock. The common practice is for one 10-shell magazine to be loaded with slug or shot ammunition and the second magazine to be loaded with anti-supernatural shells like wood, iron, or silver ammunition. The safety on the selector switch is a push button, and the selector switch is flipped up to use the left-side magazine and down for the right-side magazine. Semi-automatic bursts can be fired from a single magazine only.
While this weapon was originally produced in small batches exclusively for the I.S.S. and NTSET, it has been adopted by the Coalition Army for frontline troops in the battle against the Demons and Devils of Hell and Hades.

Again, have a like.
I've been using old Cyberpunk RPG Chromebook material to reflect Golden Age SDC material, some of which survives into the Rifts era. But now we have a few more more up to date manufacturers to play with.

I have tried using the Heroes Unlimited Guide, but I have to wonder why an A.R.-15/Ruger Redhawk would survive the coming of the rifts when a copy of “How I Met Your Mother” would not.

Since Rifter is gone, hopefully Palladium will look into writing a North America/Coalition Sourcebook that includes all the non-monster/magic/MDC stuff...

Things like general economic conditions and activities, small time SDC weapons manufacturers, etc. if you have stuff like that in your games I would be interested in seeing it
