| rdfs:comment | - Slugthrowers are automatic weapons which fire solid-slug ammunition propelled by one of various methods, including the use of compressed gases. The ammunition used by these weapons are caseless ammunition. Despite the widespread use of laser weapons, slugthrowers are still popular as the bullets are capable of causing bleeding whereas a laser beam cauterises wounds instantly. Also its noise and visual effects are more useful against primitives. However it lacks the same degree of power as laser weapons, and requires ammunition unlike the lasgun.
- The Slugthrower is a weapon in Soldier of Fortune. This weapon is probably a sister to the HMG in terms of appearence and their firing functions. The weapon primary mode is to fire low explosive slugs that eats away at the target's armor integrity like butter and more importantly it's explosive content meant it can tear apart limbs as easy as the armor. But it is ill-advised to use in close quarters. Its secondary is a concussion grenade which has great explosive radius and slightly stuns the target.
- The inhabitants of Carnelion IV, the Open and Closed, used a variety of slugthrower weapons in their war against each other, some mounted on large bipedal walkers. Aurra Sing also used a Czerka Arms Adventurer model slugthrower rifle. Slugthrowers were surprisingly useful against lightsabers, as when a slug made contact with a blade, it simply melted instead of being deflected like a blaster bolt. These melted embers could then fly toward the face or hands of the lightsaber user, and harm them if they were not careful.
- A Slugthrower was a primitive weapon used by many races throughout many planets. The weapon uses a cartridge that, with the squeeze of the trigger, fires a projectile out the barrel. The wielder must reload each shot and put a new unused cartridge in an opening near the stock, before it can be fired again. On planets such as Tatooine, this is one of the only types of weapons there are.
- "Slugthrower" is slang for most projectile weapons, but excluding others such as crossbows or grenade launchers. Slugthrowers such as handguns, hunting rifles, and machine guns fire metal "slugs" or bullets at their targets. These weapons are generally discouraged from being used on spaceships and space stations because they can rupture a hull, leading to dangerous decompression situations. Weapons that fire pure energy rather than matter, such as PPGs, offer a safer alternative.
- Slugthrowers were in service as security guard sidearms by 2478. Ammunition made of the same alloys as spike pistol was available; the alloys were detectable by scanners. The Confederate Marine Corps used slugthrowers during the Great War, with one example having a magazine capacity of at least 14 rounds. By this time, most common slugthrowers were ineffective against CMC Powered Combat Suits. The Dominion Marine Corps issued flak pistols as sidearms after the Brood War. Slugthrowers continued to be used after the Brood War, as was the case with mercenaries like Rosemary Dahl.
