Hellpistol
From Lexicanum
A Hellpistol is a pistol version of the Hellgun used by Imperial Guard Storm Troopers. In combat it is effectively the same as a Laspistol, although it can penetrate light armour. It is also often used in tandem with a Close Combat Weapon. Storm Troopers wear large backpacks with power generators which provide the gun with its greater firepower, however they require more maintainance.
While the standard Laspistol is a semi-automatic weapon (one squeeze of the trigger fires one shot), the Hellpistol is fully automatic - it fires multiple laser beams as long as the trigger is held down.
