Type 490 Submachine Gun

Part of Kawasaki Heavy Industry's line of +C-capable firearms geared toward colonial defense, the Type 490 Submachine Gun was created with close-quarters battles in mind. It is a thin, bullpup submachine gun chambered for the .45 ACP cartridge, and generally loaded with jacketed hollowpoint rounds. The Type 490 is by far the most powerful weapon of its type against unarmored or lightly armored targets. It comes with an integrated foregrip and top rail with a mini carrying handle, as well as a threaded barrel for accepting suppressors and recoil compensators. Rightly feared by raiders, pirates and other criminals on the frontier, the Type 490 earned the nickname 'Paintbrush' among colonial militiamen due to the tendency of the +C hollowpoint rounds to splatter the area with gore on impact.
