Reutech Striker {12 gauge}
The South Africanbuilt Striker was born in the Rhodesian counter-insurgency operations of the 1970s, when urban and jungle combat required the most vicious close-range weapon possible. The Striker was originally produced by Armsel and exported under the “Streetsweeper” name, which quickly became a general appellation for any combat shotgun. The Striker is a fully automatic shotgun that feeds from a spring-driven revolver-style rotating cylinder. The shooter must wind the cylinder’s spring before it will turn (2 full turns for Strength 3+ characters, 3 turns for Strength 2, 5 turns for Strength 1). The Striker’s Strength requirement increases to 4 for a short burst; for a medium burst, which consumes all 12 shells, the Strength requirement increases to 5. Strikers are considered destructive devices under U.S. law (see p. 192).
