Radon Phaser

Smooth but deadly phaser pulse with superior accuracy.

Titanium alloy
Deadly radon pulse
Secondary photon torpedos
Accurate targeting scope

WARNING:
Overloading the photon chamber could ignite the radon gases.

PHASER HISTORY:

Throughout the 21st century, phaser guns were heavily tested. Unfortunately, they were consistently found to be highly unreliable weapons. Due to the unstable gases used in the technology, these earlier models resulted in a high frequency of owner fatalities.

As advances were made in the study of radon gases, the Federation began to use radon to stabilize the phaser gun. However, there was still a problem with developing a frame architecture that could handle the technology. In 2237, Hans Ashton used Titanium in combination with an elaborate design to create a remarkable frame to handle the radon gases. The primary trigger of this new phaser emitted a deadly radon pulse with amazing accuracy. The pulse was so accurate, in fact, that a special scoping mechanism was added to the gun design for targeting. The secondary trigger on the radon phaser used a hydraulic chamber to concentrate the gases. The longer the trigger was held, the more the gases that would build up. When the trigger was released, a powerful photon blast shot from the barrel, destroying targets as far away as 100 kilometers.

The radon phaser soon became the sniper weapon of choice, surpassing even the popular gauss Snyper pistol. Nothing compared with its accuracy, nor its ability to hit targets from long distances.

The one drawback to the gun is that the photon chamber has limited capacity. If the radon gases build up for too long before releasing the trigger, the photon explosion occurs in the gun chamber. Several attempts were made to design a release valve to prevent an overload of the chamber, but none were successful. Thanks to the strength of the titanium frame, the gun itself stays in tact, and the damage to the owner is minimal. However, excessive abuse of the gun could lead to death. The radon phaser, therefore, is only issued to certified Federation troops.
