The Ares Interceptor was introduced in 2058, marketed as the "revolver of the future". Strictly speaking however, the Interceptor is not a revolver at all; it rather features a unique rotating chamber system based on torpedo loading systems used on Candiru-class submarines, produced during the Eurowars by General Dynamics, an Ares subsidiary. The cylinder of the Interceptor resembles a 3x3 grid, where the eight peripheral chambers hold the ammunition that are fed into the rotating central chamber which connects to the barrel. The weapon was a commercial failure as the complex rotating chamber made it much more expensive than regular revolvers and slower to reload, but the unique loading mechanism, that allows a user to load different ammunition types and switch between them as needed, did attract some interest among special interest groups. The reloading mechanism can be controlled either via Smartlink or through buttons connected to a small LCD display at the back of the gun, where the hammer would be on a conventional revolver.<br>Notes: The Ares Interceptor is an exception to the normal rule disallowing a mix of ammunition types in the same magazine. Each chamber of the Interceptor can be freely loaded with any type of standard pistol ammunition, and a Smartlinked user can switch between ammo types with a Free Action. A non-cybered operator can do so via the manual control using a Simple Action.
