The 5.56 Striker is the smaller of a series of cased bullpup designs with Boss Arms’ patented recoil system that lowers BOD minimum of this weapon to 3.  Its sales have been primarily to nomad groups (at a steep discount) and people whose physical strength is very low.

The 7.62 Striker is the second in that series of cased bullpup designs with Boss Arms’ patented recoil system that in this case lowers BOD minimum of this weapon to 5.  Its sales again have been primarily to nomad groups (at a steep discount) and people whose physical strength is low.  This weapon has gained a little more popularity due to its longer range.

The ‘Hammer’ is a huge hunting rifle firing the .700 Nitro Express round.  This gun is made to take down the largest game.  It also works well on Boosters and Cyborgs.  Again this rifle is equipped with Boss Arms patented recoil system that lowers the BOD minimum of this weapon to 5.  It is a popular weapon with the remaining big game hunters of the world.

This is the Electro-thermal version of the ‘Hammer’.  Due to the nature of the original propellant of the .700 Nitro Express round, the damage increase is slightly less than normal.  The Boss Arms patented recoil system lowers the BOD minimum of this weapon to 7.  While some big game hunters favor it, most of this rifle’s sales are to those that get annoyed with rampaging Boosters and want to do something about it.

     This is a specialty weapon created by Caitlin Jones under her identity as Liese Cernea during our Romanian Campaign for the rebel group, the Draculesti.  It is based off the Nomad 7.62 rifle and   chambered to fire the Barrett-Arasaka 20mm APDS round.  The rifle’s simple bolt action design was perfectly suited to the harsh conditions of the Romanian mountains and primitive manufacturing capabilities of the rebels.After the war, the designs fell into the hands of Charlie Bibbleodoc of Boss Arms.  His company occasionally manufactures a few on order for various nomad groups, but patent restrictions on the 20mm APDS round keeps it from public sale.  The weapon is extremely rare except in the mountains of Romania where veterans of the Draculesti treasure theirs.* The cost is an approximation as it was never sold commercially in Romania, and Boss Arms only issues them as part of the nomad barter system.
