Developed in [[3069]] by [[Clan Jade Falcon]], the '''Anti-Personnel Gauss Rifle''' is a scaled-down [[Gauss rifle]] meant for work against conventional [[infantry]] and [[battle armor]]. While functioning similarly to needler weapons, it fires metal flechettes at supersonic speeds, allowing for additional penetration against heavier armor, unlike traditional needler systems. Though the weapon began life as a battle armor weapon, it was soon adopted by heavier units throughout the [[Clans]].<ref name="TMp218">''[[TechManual]]'', p. 218, "Anti-Personnel Gauss Rifle"</ref>
