Trivia

• The weapon featured on this mod is the  Strun, which is oriented towards  Impact damage. This is a holdover from Damage 1.0, back when damage specializations weren't as definite as they are now.
• A flechette is a steel dart used in firearms due to its armor-piercing potential.
• Can be combined with  Accelerated Blast and  Breach Loader to provide a 270% increase to  Puncture damage.
