Plasma Weapon

A device that fires or generates superheated ionized gas (plasma) to damage targets. Plasma weapons in science fiction (Star Wars blasters, Halo plasma rifles) typically fire bolts of glowing energy that burn on contact. Real-world plasma weapons face immense challenges: containing plasma long enough to reach target, generating enough energy in portable form, and dealing with atmospheric dissipation. Current research focuses on plasma as an effect (plasma jets for cutting) rather than a projectile weapon. The plasma weapon concept persists because it's visually spectacular and thermodynamically devastating—plasma carries enormous thermal energy and could theoretically ignite anything flammable on contact. Practicality remains elusive.
Plasma Weapon "In the game, the plasma weapon leaves molten craters in armor. In reality, we can barely contain plasma in magnetic bottles, let alone fire it at people. But the concept endures: a weapon that delivers the sun's surface temperature in a bolt. Sci-fi today, maybe science tomorrow."

Ray Weapon

A broad category of directed-energy weapons that use electromagnetic radiation—from radio frequencies to microwaves to visible light to X-rays and gamma rays—to damage targets. Unlike conventional weapons that rely on kinetic impact or chemical explosion, ray weapons transfer energy directly to the target, causing heating, ionization, electronic disruption, or physical destruction. The concept ranges from established technologies (laser dazzlers, microwave crowd control systems) through classified military research (advanced laser systems, active denial technologies) to speculative fiction (death rays, disintegrators). The term "ray weapon" carries both scientific specificity (it actually uses rays) and cultural baggage (it sounds like something from a 1950s sci-fi film). In practice, the boundary between "real" and "speculative" ray weapons is fuzzy—what's classified today may be public tomorrow, what's impossible today may be engineered next decade.
Example: "The military denied having ray weapons, but the footage showed something burning targets without visible projectiles—not proof, but exactly the kind of ambiguity that keeps conspiracy theorists and arms control experts equally worried."

Assault Weapon

Can refer to multiple things:
a. Assault Rifle - a technical term used to describe a rifle with select fire capability, detachable magazine and that fired intermediate cartridge
b. Political term which is used in multiple bans, first started off in 1994 from Federal Assault Weapon Ban, which banned firearms by features and whether firearm can accept s detachable magazine.
Oh gosh we need to ban these assault weapons that have a shoulder thing that goes up!

Double-Loaded Weapon

A man who is headed out for a night on the town, and is cum toxic, in that he is experiencing the natural result of sperm and related fluids that have built up in the body without release.

A sexual weapon consisting of two repositories of ammunition and a single barrel, which is fully loaded.

A man headed out for a night on the town who strongly feels the need to release his ejaculatory fluids.
Look here, I haven't been able to jack off in three days and I've got a Double-Loaded Weapon! Lets go find some girls.

Personal Defence Weapon

A class of compact firearms, essentially hybrids between Assault Rifles and Sub-Machine Guns. Designed to be both small and light so they can be carried by Non-combatant Personnel, but still have the capability to penetrate modern ballistic body armour. This is usually achieved by utilising special cartridges, such as the 5.7x28mm FN or the 4.6x30mm HK. Very effective in Close Quarter Combat, this class of firearms has been adopted by several Special Forces, Law Enforcement Agencies and Counter-Terrorist Units.

Notable examples include the FN P90, the HK MP7, the PDW Version of the FN SCAR and the AAC Honey Badger.
...so then these Paratroopers went for our Supply Personnel, assuming that they were easy bait. But luckily, they were equipped with Personal Defence Weapons and managed to hold them back until combatant units were on place.
