The smoker

"Alliance related activity detected. Sureshot weapons of tier 3 and higher have been authorized. Any marksman personnel report to the armory for smokers." - Base communicator announcing the authorization of smokers

Mechanics & Inner Workings

The deadly smoker uses a specially made ammo type that evaporates into smoke when it comes into contact with liquid. Smokers can fire another heavy caliber sniper ammo type but are the only rifles capable of safely firing smoker rounds with a shielded firing chamber for maximum protection against premature evaporations. Other features include pump action round loading for a higher overall rate of fire and carefully placed vents to deal with the toxic fumes that smoker rounds produce.
They're usually given to sharpshooters as they are technically sniper rifles, capable of firing over 2000 hunts (roughly 4 kilometers) at full effectivity.

Manufacturing process

Smokers need plenty of vents to deal with the extra gasses that the smoker rounds produce. While still assembled in a factory setting, smokers are much more complex than other firearms.

Smokers are carefully manufactured in a factory environment. But due to the volatility of their ammo and the fact these guns need more vents than others they have their own manufacturing section.
