Defense Designs
A new company from the on the market
specializing in custom firearms for an individuals protections.
Bottom line they make polymer one shot pistols with various design
and appearance options that are printed up and dispersed in five
minutes at their specialty kiosks. The company itself is based out of
Pacific rim region which is the kingdom of the cheap knock off in the
first place. Although the internals only come in three actual designs
it's the exterior that can be modified and adjusted to a persons
desire.
First you slide your ID into a built in
scanner to the system can run a background check before selling you a
firearm. Do note that there is nothing in place to make sure you are
using YOUR actual ID and not somebody else. Then you pick out the
desired level of firepower: Light 6mm, Medium 9mm or Heavy 11mm. Note
that Heavy is not available in all jurisdictions. Next you are given
a wide variety out outside appearance options, everything look a
likes to popular pistols, science fiction appearance and a variety of
ones from other sources. You will select a color, even the choice of
multiple colors and marbleized. A list of add on options will come up
and the ability to place your own custom designed graphics or logos
on to the handle or other flat surfaces.
Once all your options are finalized you
are given a final price. Once paid the machine starts working
selecting out the base internals from a stock inside the machine and
using a high speed 3D Printer for everything else. After five minutes
the finished product is dispersed through a slot in the front with
one magazine with no rounds inside. Defense Designs usually has a

Story Seeds.
Defense Designs is paying qualified
people (Techies mainly) to go around and refill the kiosks when they
start to run low on material. Pay is 25eb per servicing of a station
and you use their provided minivans with the logo emblazoned on the
side.
A gang has been causing trouble
downtown and the PC' have been hired to shut them down. One of the
leads is they all use Defense Designs pistols with their gang sign on
them. The company will not give up any information so a Netrunner
will have to hack their system to find out which Kiosks they use to
print their guns at. Thus helping them narrow down where the gang is
centered at.

Quick question, how many employees does defense designs have? Like troops/covert?
ReplyDeleteI would strongly doubt that they have anything above security guards at a couple warehouses. As they simply produce kiosks to make throw away guns the big corps like Militech wouldn't see them as a threat at all. If there was any sort of need they could probably hire a small team of freelance solos for a quick mission or two.
DeleteOf course it's your game when you are running it so making them something bigger is always an option.
