Surikov CK-20 'Shrike' Coil Carbine
Glitter-tier rapid-fire coil carbine; high cyclic rate for CQB dominance.
The CK-20 'Shrike' is Surikov Dynamics' answer to the demand for a rapid-fire coil weapon in close-quarters battle. Where the CK-7 emphasises reliability and the CK-12 precision, the Shrike prioritises volume of fire: its tuned power cycling and extended magazine allow controlled bursts of hypersonic flechettes that shred armour and cover alike. The Shrike's rate of fire is lower than a conventional automatic weapon, but each individual round carries the full armour-piercing advantage of electromagnetic acceleration. The weapon is issued to Surikov's top-tier PMC assault units and sold to a select list of Core buyers; its cost reflects the precision engineering required to maintain coil integrity under rapid cycling.
