Description
The improved Gauss rifle was created by Clan Goliath Scorpion scientists during the Golden Century. It acted as a bridge weapon that linked the SLDF's Gauss rifle to the later Clan-spec version used in the Clan Invasion.[2] Though its production would be canceled in 2837, it would be reintroduced by the Escorpión Imperio in 3080.[1]
