Body Pistol 5mm

   The Bodypistol is designed to be especially hard to detect in security
searches. It is done mostly in advanced materials which makes it more
expensive than usual. Silencers are available at law level zero weighing 150g
and costing Cr125. There are no problems with compatibility between different
techlevels of ammunition for this gun. The ammunition used is called 5x10mmI
and it is sold in cases of 2000 rounds, (Lead: 1liter 5kg Cr230) (AP: 1liter
4kg Cr460) (APDS: 1liter 2kg Cr1380)

Automatic Pistol 9mm

   Using higher techlevel ammunition in a lower techlevel weapon of this type
will not increase the risk of malfunction. The ammunition is the 9x17mmI, it
is sold in cases of 1000 rounds, (Lead: 2.7liters 15kg Cr140) (AP: 2.7liters
11kg Cr293) (DS: 2.7liters 7kg Cr460) (APDS: 2.7liters 7kg Cr920).

Automatic Pistol 9mm Caseless

   I have assumed that due to recoil purposes, a loaded weight of 1kg is
minimum for a 9mm automatic pistol. Therefore the TL13-16 pistols have extra
weights in them, 50g at TL13, 140g at TL14, 240g at TL15 and 350g at TL16
which can be replaced by laser point sights, smartgun options, gyros and so on.
   The weapon has no ammunition compatibility problems. The 9x17mmICls comes
in cases of 1000 rounds, (Lead: 2.7liters 13kg Cr297) (AP: 2.7liters 9kg Cr594)
 (DS: 2.7liters 4kg Cr891) (APDS: 2.7liters 4kg Cr1782).
   Typical smartgun statistics as offered by Interstellarms in the M911s1ID to
M911s1IG models (smartgun versions of the basic M911I line) are: TL13 +2
+Cr108, TL14 +3 +Cr324, TL15 +3 +Cr324, TL16 +4 +Cr972. This particular
smartgun sensor works with passive IR, so it is rendered ineffective by the
various forms of IR supression in armors. The slightly more advanced M911s2ID
to M911s2IG models are capable of combining movement, visual clues and IR to
fire at moving items and lifeforms. They have the following characteristics:
TL13 +1 +Cr108, TL14 +2 +Cr324, TL15 +3 +Cr972, TL16 +3 +Cr972.
