Well,at least the OP isn't asking what the DV on a Corgi should be.

The decker in my group has that damn Corgi as his agent.  Whenever he pulls up his agent, I have to roleplay a frigging dog.

That's easy

"Monitor AR traffic?? MY FAVORITE THING TO DO!!"

"Search for a ... DIGITAL SQURREL!!!" <Runs away>
Where am I going? And why am I in a hand basket ???

ROFL!  I also like to have the avatar hump his leg at inopportune times (such as always).  And whenever he's awaiting instructions, he looks like this:

The weapon in question in action:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QCw_aAS7vWI&t=2m14s

On first look, it's a pair of forearm guards with embedded shotguns and custom shot payloads.

Pretty much anime physics involved, though, especially the 'selective' recoil.

The show is pretty much about superpowered people. And yes, all of the weapons in the series are hybrid melee/firearms. When asked if they would ever feature melee weapons that weren't also guns, the creator responded with, "Why would you ever want that?"

Has the Barton Arms Bracer (Neo-A's Guide to Real Life pg30) gotten a rule treatment since SR2?

Quote
BARTON ARMS BRACER
Another fashion hit from world-renowned Barton Arms! The ultimate hold-out weapon, the Bracer looks like a beautiful piece of jewelry, a massive bracelet of titanium polished to bring out its natural blue color and crystalline structure. Built into the Bracer next to the latch, which lies against the underside of the wrist, Is a single-shot mechanism designed to fire a single hollow-point round. The wearer arms the weapon by sliding part of the design on the latch, and fires it by bending the hand back to free the muzzle. The bracelet Is an original design by Bartellucci.

Bracer Hold-Out*7**1SS3M2 (6L).312/7days1,300¥3
* Increase all base target numbers by 1.
** Refers to the concealability of the weapon mechanism.

>>>>>[Same firing mechanism as the gun cone, above. This weapon provides no barrel whatsoever, so accuracy is pretty damn lousy. I saw a corp-scag fire one of these at what she thought was a go-ganger, miss by a mile, then yell bloody blue murder because the muzzle flash burned her wrist.]<<<<<

Bingo.  I expect Tiffani and Barton made a deal, or the latter got bought out by the fashionable former - or maybe a rebranding  ...
