(>) Or for the non-coms: grappling hooks or tracking bugs. But you've
gotta realize - these things are even less reliable than those god-awful
"wrist bracer" things Barton Arms was flushing onto the market four or

(if you actually call either of these gadgets a gun) although that's
mostly megacorp politicking, from what I understand.

(>) Corporate politics.. ha! ARES has been hot to get its K-Point
smartlink software throughout the industry and Barton isn't going to
