This weapon must be set up as a full-round action prior to firing, which involves either lying prone or propping against low cover. If the wielder does not set up they take a -4 penalty to attack. The wielder also takes a -4 penalty if shooting at a target within 30ft. This gun requires at least 12 Strength to wield; failing to meet the minimum Strength incurs a -4 penalty to aim and increases the recoil penalties by 50% (min 1).
