Repeating Rifle

"A lever-action rifle with a tube magazine — the workhorse of the Frontier."

The repeater is the most common long gun on the Frontier. Its lever-action mechanism allows rapid follow-up shots, and its tube magazine holds enough rounds for a sustained firefight. Every ranch, every homestead, every guard post has at least one repeater.

Qualities

Effects this weapon carries into every engagement.

Effect: Can fire twice without moving (second shot at +2 Tempo, no Aim bonus).

Rapid Cycle weapons allow follow-up shots through lever actions, internal magazines, or other mechanisms that minimize the time between rounds. The follow-up shot is faster than reacquiring the target normally, but the shooter has no time to aim properly.
