No one was really sure if the R&D department had been binging on as an upgrade to existing Electro Lasers or if it was the fever dream of a man watching too much Kaiju media. These new weapons worked and were cheap, being built from readily available home appliances and a spare generator. The downside was they were heavy and dangerous.
The daughters were very poor at looking like modest women, and stuck out like a sore thumb. Within hours of their operation the meat mafia had uncovered the dealers and had publicly used the new weapons on the distributors, killing all street level operatives. As a terminal failsafe the schematics of this system were released onto the public intranet to sew maximum destabilization. The meat mafia now has access to MASER guns. So does the general public.
the shoddy weapons were successful, being nothing more than a stack of explosively formed copper disc penetrators that were electronically fired in sequential order from front to rear and stored in a "barrel". The entire assembly was monstrously heavy and only usable by the strongest entities in the city. This didn't stop weaker individuals from making cheaper single shot copies.
