Kroot gun
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
The Kroot Gun is a weapon used by Kroot mercenaries. It is a heavy weapon strapped to the back of a Krootox. It is effectively a larger version of the Kroot rifle. It is so big that it cannot be wielded by hand.
The Krootox and the gun are often incorporated into Kroot Carnivore Squads made up of Kroot, Kroot Hounds, and the aforementioned Krootox. Because of its high strength, the Kroot gun is usually utilized to protect the squad it is in from attack by units within transports and heavier vehicles.
A twin-barreled variant of the Kroot gun is known as the Repeater Cannon[2]
