Gauss-Delivered Payload Canisters

Description[edit]

Gauss-Delivered Payload Canisters are special rounds designed to be used by man-portable Gauss-based support weapons such as the David Light Gauss Rifle. Developed by the Free Worlds League, these munitions are essentially hollowed-out Gauss slugs which can carry specialty payloads such as liquids or gases. An impact or time-delay trigger, set by the user prior to firing, detonates a small explosive charge, covering an area with the contained payload. Per government policy only nonlethal ordnance such as tear gas is allowed to be deployed by GDPC rounds, although the potential for lethal payloads remains.[1]
