Kalran: Tales of the four nations/Reclaimer small arms and equipment

Filo P9 "Needler"
Stamped out in vast numbers by the Reclaimer, the "Needler" is known as the cheapest and fastest firing machine pistol in the world. It puts 9mm bullets downstream at a blistering 1,200 rpm, and indeed costs so little and so simple to make that its faster to just melt down broken Needlers to make new one. Combined with the barrel enchanted to increase the bullets speed and magnetize it allows it to, theoretically, hit aircrafts.

However, many attributes were sacrificed to achieve this performance and cost. The first thing to note is the complete lack of anything resembling accuracy; the light weight of the weapon, along with the absurd recoil, makes it impossible to hold the weapon steady on a target for more than a single second, and it is impossible to change the fire setting without physically modifying the weapon (which likely break the gun). Obviously, the ammunition use is also prodigious, with the pistol burning through its entire 80 round magazine in less than two seconds of firing. Beyond that, the "Needler" is also extremely temperamental; being built from the cheapest, lowest quality materials available, the weapon malfunctions almost every time it fired. No one knows how many clones have been injured when their "Needler" misfired or exploded in their hands, but the number is doubtless very high.

Between the unreliability and inaccuracy of the weapon, and other issues such as poor ergonomics and the tendency for the barrel to wear out very rapidly, nearly all professional soldiers and mercenaries are quick to shun the weapon. Despite this, however, the "Needler" is very common amongst the clone forces of the Reclaimers, mainly in the hand of Bahlgram Flechette infantry.

Fana 25mm grenade launcher
Less of a grenade launcher and more of a metal tube attach to a trigger. The Fana "Can" grenade launcher is recorded to be the cheapest, most unreliable, weapon ever made.

The "weapon" itself is nothing more then mass-produced disposable barrels, each made of cheap metals and loaded with one 25mm grenade, which is attached to a trigger assembly, which has no safeties and prone to either not fire when pressed or firing at the slightest movement of the trigger, where reloading is done by untwisting the barrel off and loading another.

Combined with the lack of anything resembling accuracy; the light weight of the weapon, along with the absurd recoil, unreliable rounds, and lack of any sights. And is rather infamous for being extremely temperamental, malfunctioning or misfiring almost every time it fired. With the grenade exploding while inside the or even blasting back at its user face being an uncommon cause of death for the clone.

And the yield and damage is has doesn't even justify its sloppy design. Since it's "grenades" can be easily made by stuffing a tin can with gunpowder, propellant, and fuse with a yield that can only maim someone not wearing any armor, meaning that only the clones wielding them the only one actually at risk of being killed by these grenades, and a blast radius that only damage the target and probably someone an inch near them.

With all these drawbacks, with the only benefit being very easy to mass produce, means that its a weapon that's only dangerous to enemies in large number, and the above average chance to kill its wielder means that no sane person would wield it. But unfortunately for the other factions the Reclaimer has the number, couldn't care less for the wellbeing of the clones wielding it, and said clones being indoctrinated to see this as the most reliable weaponry means that the average battle against the Reclaimers will lead to a rain of these grenade, which will kill a person if struck by enough of these underpowered grenades.

Yui "Black clouds" flak cannon
Often labelled by many as "The most ridiculous and unwieldy weapon of war ever devised", the Reclaimer flak cannon is hardly a weapon troops would kill for. Weighing in at a crushing 46.5 kilograms, not counting the 4 kilogram ammunition clip, improper usage can easily result in spinal injuries and shoulder dislocation. The recoil of the gun is massive, and can even shake sandbag mounts, let alone a person, and prolonged usage will almost certainly result in deafness and loss of use in the firing arm. Even the Federations droids would rather charge into battle bare handed than lug around this hunk of metal.

Fortunately for the Reclaimers, and unfortunately for everyone else, the Reclaimers can easily manipulate its clones to wield these weapon with pride, even as their shoulder and spine become irreparable damaged and becomes crippled in time. And the Yui price isn't even worth it for its damage, as its 12mm time-fused rounds, while capable in sending shrapnel through the aluminium fuselages of aircraft, fires so slow that there is only a one in twenty chance for a round to actually damage an aircraft. And with it's abysmal rate of fire means its only effective when massed, but the Reclaimers have such such numbers.

Not to mention that its 12mm shell is incapable of penetrating the front armour of most tanks. And it's specialized brace they wear, to reduce a high chance for injury to a middling chance with prolonged fire, means that the clones who wields it are unable to lower their cannons to face against anything on the ground, limiting them to strictly anti-air.
