.50 cal magnetically assisted anti-biological gun.
"Guaranteed to put down your neighbourhood abomination, or your money back!"
- Informal advertisement from GC Kinetics.
A high-power sidearm jointly developed by GC Kinetics, Archwell Defense, and Barton Precision Industries (with GC spearheading the project), at the behest of the International Security and Defense Force (ISDF).
The rising threats of humanoid autonomous combat systems (HACS) saw the development of anti-HACS weapons being carried out on a massive scale by many arms manufacturers. The MAG-50 is one of many weapons produced from this surge, featuring a revolutionary armor-piercing frangible round.
Due to the HACS' ability to withstand an immense amount of damage courtesy of experimental armor, accelerated regeneration, extensive use of pain inhibitors and several other factors, the aforementioned round was designed to neutralize most (if not all) inherent advantages within a single strike.
The .50 cal. APFN-EMADS (Armor Piercing Fragmenting Necro-toxin, Electro-Magnetically Assisted Discarding Sabot) round deals with the HACS enhanced combat abilities in three phases: First, the primary armor piercing module punches through most conventional anti-ballistic armor thanks to an increased muzzle velocity (courtesy of the magnetically powered barrel). Next, upon reaching the optimal location for fragmentation, the round ejects eight shards, which, in conjunction with the primary module, greatly increases the chances of striking a vital area (such as the heart or brain) - the shards themselves possess excellent yawing cavitation to maximize damage dealt. Finally, once the shards have settled, a necro-toxin is released from the primary module, inhibiting natural healing factors and generally making the target more susceptible to conventional fire.
Since the rounds do not rely on gunpowder to propel each round, the MAG-50 boasts excellent recoil control, which makes follow up shots easy. However, due to the size of each round, magazine capacity is limited to just eight rounds.
Other features include a match barrel, illuminated sights, and a laser aiming module.

Existing plaque: Point Abino Road, Crystal Beach, Ontario
This proud beacon overlooking Lake Erie is a rare example of a reinforced concrete lighthouse built in a late neoclassical style. It was constructed in 1917-1918, and was in use for almost eight decades. Its elegantly tapered tower, reminiscent in its proportions of a classical column, as well as the rectangular structure housing the foghorn, are embellished with pediments and pilasters, typical features of the style adopted for this lighthouse.
Description of Historic Place
Point Abino Light Tower National Historic Site of Canada is an elegantly proportioned, classically detailed concrete lighthouse situated at the eastern end of Lake Erie near Crystal Beach and the town of Fort Erie, Ontario. Designed in the late Classical Revival style, the lighthouse consists of a square, slightly tapered volume rising from one end of a rectangular, flat-roofed, single-storey base. It sits just offshore and is joined to the nearby beach by a slightly elevated concrete walkway, leading to the light keeper’s residence onshore. Official recognition refers to the legal property boundary at the time of designation.
Heritage Value
Point Abino Light Tower was designated a national historic site of Canada in 1998 to acknowledge: its exceptional architectural merit as one of the most aesthetically enriched reinforced concrete lighthouses in the Canadian system of navigational aids; and, that the tower, rendered in the late Classical Revival style and housing an integrated light and fog horn, has maintained a high degree of integrity with its site and light keeper’s dwelling since its construction in 1917-18.
The heritage value of Point Albino Light Tower lies in the architectural and functional qualities of the tower and in its setting with its former lightkeeper’s residence. Point Abino Light Tower was designed by William P. Anderson and constructed by the Canadian Department of Marine and Fisheries in 1917-18 to assist navigation at the eastern end of Lake Erie. The late Classical Revival design, intended to complement the American-owned summer homes nearby, was more elaborate than most Canadian lighthouses. The former light keeper’s residence is discretely sited and sympathetically rendered as an Arts-and-Crafts-style cottage. The light has operated continuously since it was built, although today it is automated and accessible for public viewing.
Key elements contributing to the heritage value of this site include: its location at the north-eastern end of Lake Erie; its offshore setting with the nearby onshore former lightkeeper’s residence; its functional design with a combined tower and fog horn house, and a lightkeeper’s room at its base; the Fresno lens and surviving light equipment; its late Classical Revival design with its five-storey tapered, square column rising from a single-storey podium elaborated with classically derived decorative features, including symmetrically organized openings, pedimented window surrounds, pronounced faux-keystones, bracketed cornice, relieving arches, classical cross-braced balustrades, and corner pilasters; the polygonal domed light casing and the formal approach up to the grand staircase leading to the pedimented entry portico; its reinforced concrete construction; its continued operation as a lighthouse; its unobstructed viewscape to and from the walkway leading to the shore and the former lightkeeper’s residence and the north-eastern end of Lake Erie.
