Description[edit]
The Grand Mauler Gauss Cannon was a Federated Commonwealth and later Federated Suns infantry support gauss rifle which, while giving conventional infantry the firepower necessary to take on battle armor, was also bulky and unwieldy to use, requiring a complex harness for the user to wear. Since it's introduction the Grand Mauler has been adapted for use as a battlesuit weapon itself, and has become a favorite among users looking to take down enemy suits.[3][4]
