The '''Gyroslug Rifle''' is a smaller variation of the typical [[Gyrojet Rifle]].  The Gyroslug uses a smaller round, maintaining the same explosive charge while reducing the amount of propellant.  This serves to increase ammunition capacity and maintain the same damage potential as a Gyrojet Rifle while sacrificing range.<ref>''Lostech, p. 30''</ref>
