Description

A handgun that fires plasma bullets which are amplified by a heat source. The heat causes the plasma inside the bullet to become unstable as it bursts forward at an immense speed. The projectile is devastating at a short range but the plasma's energy will weaken the farther it goes. Mainly used to dispatch heavy units at a close range.

I'd like to point out that plasma is basically superheated gas to begin with so the "amplified by a heat source to cause the plasma to become unstable" mechanic doesn't make any sense to me. More heat would just make the plasma hotter.

Maybe some sort of electromagnetic surge could accomplish the destabilization, but given how DEW's work that sounds like it would spread the energy over a larger area and ultimately cause LESS damage rather than more.

Nitpicking aside, this is a pretty nice design. It looks very sturdy and seems to be the kind of gun you can expect to keep working even under awful conditions.
