Greener Light Harpoon Gun (1965)

(Based on what data I could find)

Specially-made light harpoon gun (see movie Jaws) to spear large fish with a barbed harpoon attached to a line (300-lb test by default, can be heavier). The line is (pre-)loaded on a pair of posts attached under the barrel, connected to the dart. Not designed to kill fish (or people), just to stick in and hold. Modified Martini mechanism loads .38 Spc blank; when fired, it drives 1-lb dart, with the line trailing. The end of the line can be attached to something else (such as a barrel in Jaws).

Weight (unloaded): 3.18 kg
Bulk: 5
Range: 7.5m (Eff range 30m)

RoF: SS
Dam: Special: 1-2 pts damage, and barb sticks in (unarmored flesh) target.
Pen: 1-Nil
Recoil: 2
RoF: 2 combat rounds to reload

Can be pulled out by Str 7 applied to shaft (need a Willpower roll to pull out one stuck in you, as well as appropriate reach - you cannot pull one out of the middle of your own back.) Causes 3-4 pts more damage when pulled out (to same location, of course).

So, how far can you run with three barrels in you?
