The Mauser 1540 Infantry assault system has been created as the stillborn idea of a weapon designer who has lost scale.
maybe that was due to his own size, as he was 7 feet tall and rather strong.

His idea was to combine an improved 40 mm repeating(pump Action) grenade-launcher with a hellbore assault laser.
the result weighed 15 Kilos without ammunition and power-pack, 24,5 Kilos with 10 shots and a 200PP military power pack. rather encumbring.
10 were built for evaluation and were doomed to be stored in the deepest cellar, its plans filed away under O for "odity".

Then somebody had the idea that rescued the 1540: he mounted the weapon on the pintle mount on a squad transport vehicle.
then he added a strong (ppc) power pack and changed the ammo feeding mechanism of the grenade launcher to belt-fed/pump Action.
an increased fire rate of the laser was the last Detail he changed.
Code:
Mauser 1540 ISS(infantry support system)

grenade launcher 
range 20/55/130/200 
shots: belt fed
mass 6 Kg/450 g(per shot) 22,5 Kg(50 shot belt)

hellbore  assault laser (improved)
range 60/205/465/1100
power consumotion 10pps
mass 11 Kg
Power pack: 25 Kg
pintle-mount:3 Kg
recharger for use with a Fusion powered vehicle: 2,5 Kg
combined weight: 70 Kg (with a 50-shot belt and a 1500 point power pack)
the 1540 B "punisher" combines this system with airburst grenades and a laser rangefinder.
