Official description

Biotech Industries Inc, manufactures the fusion rifle as a heavier duty version of the fusion pistol. The fusion rifle's greater power can be attributed to its larger (albeit less efficient) capacitors and power handling system. It also boasts increased accuracy due to its longer barrel and reactive magnetic containment technology. Biotech also improved its rate of fire by tweaking the FID maximum efficiency.

The rifle's results are similar to those of the pistol. Any material caught within the initial blast radius comes out looking like melted plastic. The only effective defense against fusion shots is energy-resistant armor. Due to its fusion technology, the fusion rifle delivers most damage near to its maximum range.
