Trade: Equipment

The AR-1 is a specially modified blaster rifle used by the Antarian Rangers. Created by Greff-Timms Industrial to fit the needs of the all-purpose paramilitary group, the rifle is both high-powered and boasts quite a long range. The AR-1 has a secondary firing mode for launching flares as well as the standard multifire and stun settings. The blaster rifle also has a barrel-mounted glow rod that can be removed and replaced with a vibro-bayonet. The AR-1 costs 1300 credits and weights 4.3kg.

Other equipment is not documented, except for the “distinctive brown leather jacket” given to the Rangers upon their promotion to the rank. Whether, “Antarian Rangers [have] night-vision goggles or other fancy kits” is wondered by Traviss but no answer is given.
