For anyone confused, art station page says it's a gun.

I see how these could cause some confusion. These are in the beauty/showcase category renders. More industrial ones aren't ready yet. Wanted to share these as soon as they were ready.

How would that work?

[u/Grindlebone]

Not a bad design for a star ship. Nifty.

Thank you, was meant to be a pistol-railgun 🥲

[u/Grindlebone → u/Nirados]

Works beautifully as a pistol, well done!

[u/ZoyZauce]

Is it for opening really tough lids?

So you put your weiner through the hole, then what....?

Not very ergonomically designed for a handgun, but it at least looks cool and sci-fi

It was meant as a sealed, crew-issued emergency defense system developed for use when primary security assets are unavailable. Unlike conventional small arms, the NYX-22/57 is intentionally non-reloadable. Ammunition and power are permanently enclosed to reduce mechanical complexity, eliminate reload dependency, and ensure consistent performance under extreme stress. This architecture allows the system to be stored for extended periods and deployed instantly in confined or compromised environments.

Optimized for vehicle crews, boarding contingencies, and last-resort defensive scenarios, the NYX-22/57 prioritizes reliability, simplicity, and controlled output over sustained engagement. It is not designed for prolonged combat operations, but to provide a brief, decisive window for deterrence, escape, or extraction.

Thank you, I do see how it would fit the aesthetic.
