Raimer's right hand clamps onto the barrel of the shotgun and he raises his index finger on his left hand. "A word of advice" *Phisshh* a short laser extends from the raised finger, and in one clean motion slices clean through the barrel and back half of the slide for the pump, rendering the weapon little more than a fancy hunk of metal. his face turned quite dangerous, "Never. point. a weapon. at. me."
A brief moment of high tension passed, then Hayden let go of what we left of the gun, and his casual smile returned, "Besides, Nahainudoc is hardly an insult, it's Baronh for 'Lander', one who lives their lives primarily on a planet, as opposed to those, like me, who live in outer space. It's simply a distinguishment and someone who IS a Lander taking offense to it and the comment that followed is about equivalent to you telling someone who lives in Jump City that they are from the city, and wouldn't understand country life as well as someone who lived in a rural area."
Hayden pocketed all the tools he'd been holding, then pressed a few points on his left arm and with a rapid flow, 'skin' regrew across the metal arm, and in short order it looked no different from his natural one.
"Besides, I said I have no particular dislike for your planet, I just dislike being on a planet in general, give me deep-space any day."

Hey Historygeek. And eh... Raimer, TK. Maybe we should leave the life threatening weapons for the battle dome.

Hayden shrugged, "Yeah...I promise not to wield any more small tools as weapons so long as no one pulls any guns on me...or somethin like that."

Hayden smirks calmly, "Feh, and I thought handling antimatter was a touchy situation...I say one truthful statement here and....boom."

Hayden takes the hand a shakes it, "Truce, but forgive me if I still consider you a lander though...Landers do work in space too, they just don't live there, that's all the difference is, is where one lives. Anyway, not that it matters, it's just a culture difference between us, and anyway, I started out as a Lander, but liked space so much once I made it there, I stayed.

Hayden laughed at the comment, "Ya don't have to worry about that, I've been dismantling things, even out of people's hands for almost as long as I've been alive...kinda goes with my line of work, so I'm careful. Besides, if you were human, I would've just smashed the barrel rather than cut through it, a human could easily lose a limb to a cutting laser. But you've got a pretty good amount of Tameranian blood in ya, enough that all a little laser like this would do is give you a mild burn, even if I did hit you with it."
A wry smile split his face, and he tossed out another comment in a teasing manner, "But since it concerns you, next time I dice up one of your weapons, I'll politely ask you to move your hands first."

Ok, and here, take this. another weapon for your collection. my Colt M1911A1, it takes 45.ACP rounds, you should be able to find something close to that. *holds the gun, barrel facing toward raimer, then flips it, pointing the handle at him* dont worry, i got more... the safety is on, btw

Raimer takes the gun smoothly, and flips it around a few times in his hands, popping the clip out and examining the weapon. "Hmm, projectile, powder-propulsion." clip still removed, he looked through the barrel, "Rifled barrel for maximum accuracy over a shorter barrel, looks about a 16inch per turn rifling...not bad for a pistol, specially a hand-cannon like this one."
He deftly snapped one of the bullets out of the clip and started looking it over, "Hmm, nah, too small to pack an anti-matter charge into it...and with the range on this...that'd probably be a bad idea anyway."
Hayden snapped the clip back into the gun, "Thanks...I'd love to offer a trade, but I don't think you'd find too good a use...or place to put an electromagnetic cannon. It's only about three times the height of Titans Tower, and has a power demand that would probably black out the entire city. Oh, yeah....and it throws nukes, so I don't think using it in atmosphere would be too healthy for the rest of the world. But, if you're ever looking for some spare parts, or other assorted salvage parts...let me know, I'll give ya a discount"

if you want weapons, you know where to look! i modify weapons too. the slide is reinforced, the feed ramp is polished to a mirror sheen, so u wont have problems there, the magazine well has been bored out to help with reloading, it has also a ring hammer, extended thumb safety, the grip has been checkered to make it dig into the hand, a long type trigger with non slip grooves, and notches at the front of the slide to aid also in reloading. and take this too... *lobs a supressor set at raimer* supressors, when u need to take someone down without a ruckus. got any smaller weapons? say, ones that fit on a helicopter? ok, ill give you a yell, if i need anything

Hayden nods, looking over the weapon, "It's a fine weapon, make a nice addition to my collection of exotic gear, but for general combat, I'll probably still stick with an energy weapon, if just for dealing with ammo capacity and anti-ballistics armor. But I don't know...if just as a sidearm to carry around, this thing does look a little bit more intimidating than the forever elegant Abh blaster."
After a quick twirl, the pistol gets tucked into the back of his waistband.
"Maybe I wasn't too clear on the weapons I pick up...I usually do have a pretty decent quantity of small arms, assault weapons, and weaponry more suited to terrestrial combat, ranging from pistol size, such as an Abh Blaster, to weaponry fit for ground vehicles and aircraft, but my last stop before I came here was in an outlying system of the Empire, and the Nimh ...I mean Duke, bought up almost every weapon I had for his personal militia, so until I go back out and track down another recently ended battle, and get lucky enough that the armory is still intact, I won't have any more smaller weapons lying around apart from my personal weaponry."
"But, I figure I'll be heading out on some more salvage runs soon, especially since I need to make a stop by Laklafalle, the Imperial capitol, after a bit of research, I figured out that something I salvaged, a rather fancy looking necklace, is an heirloom of one of the Royal Families. It'd sell for a good bit just based on material value, but since it's a major heirloom to them, I should be able to get a whole lot more than it should be worth out of them."

Hayden glances over at TTF, "Yeah, it's amazing how heavy weapons bring guys together, isn't it?"
