The Salvo Frag Pistol, a semi-automatic, charged-shot frag pistol, is a product of Hedeby Gunworks. This .50m pistol has the capability to fire a single pistol shot or a shotgun shot when charged. Its effective range is 80 meters for single shots and 10 meters for charged shots. Hedeby Gunworks has gone beyond the conventional use of a pistol by incorporating a longer trigger pull that injects a freezing primer into the chamber. Upon release, the heavy firing pin pulverizes the super-cooled casing, resulting in a deadly spray of high-velocity fragments and an ear-shattering boom. This charged fire option was accidentally developed as a solution to overheating.[1]

Lore
While his traditional pistols and rifles became popular with locals, Altruis Hedeby was eager to put his mark on the field and craft a weapon in the Banu-style, albeit in a way that would be uniquely his. After numerous attempts to improve the designs of the past, a new weapon came to form. The Salvo started as a normal pistol but evolved into something new when Hedeby added a freezing primer to mitigate overheating and wound up with a supercooled casing that could be shattered into a deadly spray of high-velocity fragments. The first time he fired the gun, the unexpected explosion and thunderous boom knocked Hedeby off his feet. He knew that he had something special. Hedeby made and tested modifications before personally forging ten Salvo pistols. He sent one to Ekstrom and gave the rest to his most loyal customers.
Orders for the Salvo soon overwhelmed the gunworks and investors lined up to fund its expansion. Hedeby took time to weigh his options and develop more unique gun designs. Meanwhile, Hedeby’s growing reputation among collectors and gun enthusiasts made the brand increasingly popular. The company’s slow and steady expansion ensured that its signature style and unique production techniques weren’t compromised. Even to this day, every weapon follows a specific manufacturing process established by Hedeby himself that blends hand-forging and machining.[2]
