SHREDDER:

The Vulcan Corporation Concrete SHREDDER is essentially a handheld sawblade, powered
by a state-of-the-art biodiesel engine that runs on common, cheap biofuels.

While a reliable and durable tool, it has been quite a concern among workers using it
as to why this tool has such a vicious and violent name attached to it.

It took the FBI 8 years to discover that the Vulcan Corporation had been supplying these
SHREDDER units to underground CHUD paramilitary rebellion forces in exchange for cheap
sources of scrap metal. Turns out the designer for the unit had named it the SHREDDER as
a joke, but nobody really corrected the name because they thought it was funny.

Of course, since the scandal, president John Beelzebub of Vulcan Co. has gone "missing",
meaning that he sold all of his assets of the company to some cheap Chinese bullshit and is
now comfortably living in a third-world country under a very obvious pseudonym.

Thankfully, the SHREDDER was made back in the good ol' days of USA serial killer
weapon manufacturing, but ask any building demolisher what he thinks of Vulcan now,
and he will spit on the dirt and call it Chinese-made garbage.



WK-87 10mm Submachine Gun:

The TECNOS WK-87 10mm Submachine Gun is essentially a clone of the famous and reliable
Beretta M12 Submachine Gun, scaled up for the 10mm round. With nanofibre armor becoming
more widespread amongst criminal gangs, police forces and crime leaders alike were seeking
out new ways to punch through body armor, as 9mm and .45acp just weren't cutting the mustard
anymore.

After the Italo-Spanish war of 2490, during which both countries had 50% of their surface
reduced to volcanic and radioactive wasteland, the UN declared that both Spain and Italy
are banned from receiving any armament whatsoever, and that they would have to sell
off all of their armament companies. The reason being is that the UK had over $3 billion
in infastructure destroyed by the the 2 feet of rising sea levels caused by Italy and Spain's
reckless nuclear carpet bombing and o-zone destruction.

Surprising everyone, the TECNOS company of Mexico bought all of Beretta's tooling for their
submachine guns and began production immediately in the high-demand 10mm cartridge.

Unsurprising to everyone, they realized this was a damn good investment on TECNOS' part,
considering that Mexico has become a lawless sprawl and a haven for druglords and
megacorporations alike. TECNOS has since become massively successful and is now branching
out their brand, producing lighters, cologne, backpacks, and clothing.
