Description
A semi original weapon I made for my imperial world.

The Feederlev G-3 Boltgun belongs to the Astra Militarum regiments of Kray Mira and it's Planetary Defense Force.
It is a powerful ballistic anti-personnel weapon designed for Grenadiers and high-level PDF units, to serve as a lightweight mid-range automatic weapon for high-risk operations, which must combine high damage output with accuracy and versatility.
This weapon has a thicker barrel than the more well-known Godwyn-De'az Boltgun, is more resistant to damage when handled roughly and is also slower to overheat during sustained fire, and has improved rifling with six grooves for increased accuracy, this modification also enhances its reliability in adverse environmental conditions. This pattern of Bolter is intended to be used by normal humans and is sized accordingly, and comes in two variants: the standard "short" Boltgun configuration, and a "long" Stalker Bolt Rifle variant with an elongated barrel and a rifle-like buttstock, both of which are lighter and more compact than most Boltgun designs in order to increase maneuverability and tactical flexibility in combat situations. Rather than a conventional fire selector, it utilizes a touch-sensitive trigger that gives single shots when pressed lightly and three-round-bursts when pulled back fully. Even though this pattern fires the nearly forgotten .50 calibre rounds, this overpressure ammunition still give it very good stopping power and armour-piercing capabilities in close combat. In order to reduce its operating costs, this pattern normally employs a modified rocket-propelled distress flares fitted with crude impact detonators in a pale imitation of a true Bolt shell, but are nevertheless still quite deadly, igniting flammable materials and can set a victim on fire in addition to the normal explosive damage it dishes out. When dealing with heavily-armoured infantry it can fire more powerful armour-piercing rounds that uses a heavier main charge with its uranium core replaced by a solid wolframium core; upon impact, the outer casing peels away and the high-velocity wolframium needle accelerates into the victim, where the larger detonator propels shards of super-hardened metal further into the wound.
Though Kray Mira did not originally meddle with such holy technologies, the formation of the Cicatrix Maledictum forced the planet to improve and expand its defensive capabilities in order to survive. Due to their loyalty and numerous contributions to the Indomitus Crusade, all of Kray Mira's subtle tech heresies were overlooked/allowed to continue by the Adeptus Mechanicus.

As with my previous post, it's kinda inspired on the Soviet Union and modern day Russia,though this one in particular is based on the german Heckler & Koch G3 assault rifle. Hope you like it!
