UTA SSR
United Terran Alliance Standard Small Rifle
The UTA: SSR is constructed to be used by all UTA soldiers. However it is rarelly dstributed ammongst soldiers that use armor that is classified as medium and up. The rifle itselfis designed for planetarial missions, but it is fully operational in zero gravity. The rifle was aprooved by the UTA in 2630, and has been in service for 5 years, with slight modifications each year.
The rifle has two totally different modes. The primary mode is the use of normal solid projectiles. The projectile can be changed all depending on the different tasks the soldier has ahead, but the normal projectile used are 5.0 x 15.5 mm of caseless ammo. The rifle can fire theese projectles 5 times a second, and the normal range of capasaty for a magazine is 110. The secondary mode is a pulse plasma powered (3p) cannon. It fires solid projectiles that are heated up near the exit by lases to reach ultra hot levels. The result is a flying projectile of hot plasma. The speed combined with the nature of the projectile makes this a very effective weapon against almost everything. The 3p mode is charged by a large battery mounted in the back of the rifle. Each projectiles magazine measurements are 9.0 x 50.5 mm. The normal capacaty of a magazine is 25.
The targeting system is all digital. A camera is mounted in the front, and it gives a 15x image (adjustable within the HUD) of where you are pointing the gun. The camera is connected to the soldiers HUD.

Measurements:
Lenght: 1205 mm
Barrel: 1000 mm
Weight: 3500 grams
Caliber:
-5.0 x 15.5 mm
-9.0 x 50.5 mm
Operation: Short Recoil, Automatic
Magazine capacity:
-110 (5.0x15.5)
-25 (9.0x50.5)
Max Effective Range: 1750 meters (Earth gravty)
Sights: 15X Digital
Note: On already attached sight module, others are optionable.

First apperance in novel:
Chapter 4; James grabs gun from UTA trooper chasing him:
A grenade flew through the air and in to the elevator. The doors of the elevator closed and an explosion followed. Within the explosion James used the little time he knew he would get to run from his cover and out to the sub city middle pathway. As he got out from the cover a trooper saw him and so he started to fire. No matter how advanced targeting systems was nobody hit James. He took the opportunity to jump kick one of the troopers and grab his gun mid air. Then he forced his way further out in the pathway.

There you have it. The gun that is issued to every light armored soldiers in the UTA. The old design I didn't like, and with some inspiration from a very talented *Bonez18B I was able to make a totally new design on the gun. I think the next step will be making it more futuristic like.
