Description
Xerrol Corporation developed the Nightstinger as an exceptionally accurate sporting and hunting rifle. Its specialized gas canister produces invisible blaster bolts, eliminating the visible trace normally used to locate a distant shooter. The extreme energy demand limits each canister to five shots and slows sustained fire. Imperial Intelligence maintains controlled stocks for covert surveillance support, countersniper operations, and missions requiring deniable precision fire.
