R97 Shotgun
Shotgun Gemini Ballistic gmni_shotgun_ballistic_01
The R97 combines sleek design and stopping power for an elegant and effective close quarters weapon. This ballistic shotgun from Gemini features two distinct fire modes — a semi-auto wide spread mode ideal for dealing quick damage and a focused mode that offers increased range at the expense of some power. This combat flexibility has made the R97 a popular personal defense weapon across the Empire.
