| Tribunus Laticlavius | Whatever you choose it should share common spares with other weapons issued within that force. Nothing is much use unless you have access to spares where ever you go.

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | There is very little kick from this gun, the grips are there for you to hold it firmly to improve the accuracy |
