The Model MGL-1 was a model of Micro-Grenade Launcher designed by Locris Syndicates. It was designed to deliver small grenades quickly and with minimal training for the user. It could be mounted on another rifle and be used as a separate weapon.
The MGL-1 acted as a sort of gauss gun, using magnetic rings to propel each grenade at high velocity with minimal scattering. A computerized firing system allowed for increase accuracy thanks to its target recognition system, which combined with its low recoil and soundless operation made it a favorite of bounty hunters. However the magnetic rings would eventually require replacement, otherwise causing the launcher to jam and leaving an armed grenade stuck in the barrel.[2]
