YK42B pulse rifle

The YK42B is an electrical pulse weapon that was developed by the Yuma Flats Energy Consortium. It is considered a far superior weapon to the YK32 Pulse Pistol, having a greater charge capacity and range. It is, by some, considered to be the best energy weapon.

While named similarly to the Pulse Grenade and Pulse Rifle Prototype, it is not actually an electromagnetic pulse weapon, but instead shoots electrical pulses effective against all targets, not just electronic devices.
