Styrling Dart

Seeking to expand their customer base by appealing to low-income customers, Styrling put together a cheap, robust weapon. Following the β€œno-frills” philosophy, this weapon is intended to be absolutely bare bones. Made to accept cheaper, low caliber ammunition, the weapon is ineffective against targets that are; armored, ID-SOL, large, and under the influence of powerful drugs. Instead, Styrling Development gave the weapon an extremely high rate of fire by reducing the bolt's weight, allowing for a lethal magazine dump into a target at close range. Owners should note that firing the weapon in full auto for extended periods will degrade the weapon quickly, although those with enough money are easily able to buy another one.

The weapons ergonomics are not too great. Being a compact weapon, the grip fits awkwardly in large hands. And the trigger is known to slap the finger when fired. These flaws were intentionally left in the weapon, as fixing them would undermine the weapons ability to be produced cheaply. They were also deemed to be flaws easily overlooked by those who could not afford higher end firearms, but also reviled by the private citizen who is able to buy higher end firearms, which serves to not undermine the demand of other Styrling weapons.

When the trigger is pulled, only the hammer and firing pin move, striking the cartridge's primer and firing the bullet. The bolt then recoils far enough rearward to extract the empty shell and load a new cartridge from the magazine into the firearm's chamber, ready to fire again once the trigger is pulled.
