Extremely solid high-caliber short-ranged rapid-firing projectile weapon. Emphasis on solid construction, as it is designed to be used by enthusiastic ogryns.

Edit: I seem to recall it also has a shot-limiter (i.e. some form of semi-automatic-fire). Again for use with enthusiastic ogryns, preventing them from firing off the whole drum at once for fun.

High ROF sub machine gun with a drum barrel, solidly built to be used as a club for when the Ogryns get in close or run out of ammo and forget to change the drum. Large calibre rounds.

I always thought it was a full auto high capacity shotgun with a burst limiter and the ability to use as a club. Certainly in rogue trader it was auto hit at point blank and fun with following fire! The madels after the first though were awful.

Here. But in german.
Here it is a full automatic machinegun with a BIG drummagazine and a burst limiter toprevent that an overenthusiastic ogryn empties the drumi n one volley.
Its i build as sturdy as it gets because ogyns have the habit to forget to shoot and instead use the gun as club.

The gunfires low velocity ammmunition at a high rate so that ogryns will inevitably hit something with it. It has a low range because ogryns have a habit for closecombat and wouldn't think about shooting something far away even if they have a weapons wich is capable of doing so.
At short range it will hit automatically.

Low Range: 0-6" hit always
High Range 6-12" to hit modifier -2
Strength 4
Damage 1
Armorpriercing W6+4
Rapid fire: 2 dice

I have the English 2nd Ed Wargear book it is described as a drum feed fully automatic combat shotgun.  It is also described as having a burst limiter to prevent the Ogrns emptying the magazine to quickly.  It is also solidly constructed as Ogryns tend to use them as impromptu clubs.

Yes, I now remember that it was a drum fed Shot Gun ... I only have the data in an old W/D. I got an Epic Orgyn with a barrel gone ... So I used the top of the old Epic banner pole, so it looks like the Carbine version. Now I'm getting a bunch in a trade "sans" barrel. So I'll have More of the "Kurz" version.  I'll take a pic soon.  I like the way Tom does it in the E/W fluff ...   With nomenclature, etc. ... So thanks for the all the intell Boys. :D  U R a good lot !
