Below is an expansion set of weapons based around the Rifle Cannons with MGs thrown in as well. These are meant to fill some gaps from Pre-Space Flight Era all the way to the dawn of the Age of War Era. They are formatted to be "rules ready" for use in BattleTech Table Top that were intended to emulate legacy or old designs from techs A through C and should share the same availability rating of their respective weapon base. Each gun will have two expanded versions, Snub-Nose (SN) and Extended (E); These are to emulate the historical technical measures done to either lighten a gun and mainly obtain it's hitting power at shorter ranges OR extending the gun in order to increase its reach on the battlefield. I hope folks have fun with this obsolete expansion of weapons for anyone wanting to have their early colonies take their ancient primitive Earth Tech with them. ;)
