    This coil-type handgun was designed as a more portable, easier-to-assemble, lightweight counterpart to the CG-20-R. The CH-3 was built with a linear induction coil that uses magnetic forces to propel projectiles up to hypersonic speeds, but does not utilize the advanced CNT capacitors found in other Vettir weapons, making copies of this weapon more readily available to frontiersmen and the Tarzh Vettir. The ammunition is exceptionally inexpensive to make, but the downside is that the individual shots do not have much stopping power. It still offers the ability to bypass cover and pierce multiple targets.

    Type Damage Damage Range
    Simple Ranged 4d4 (Burst), 2d4 (Controlled Burst), 1d4 + 6 (Single Shot) Piercing Damage Piercing 90/270 (2/6 hexes)
