The BR-02-A1 is a standard starship close quarters submachine rifle. It is notable less accurate and powerful than it's brother, the S/GUR-01-A1. It does however, have the benefit of a hugher rate of fire and being much smaller and easier to handle. Also like it's brother, it is made with composite materials. It uses the same battery system as the S/GUR-01-A1. Also known as the “Bro” rifle due to it's designation.

The actual shot is bright green. When not firing, the walls of the weapon's 'chamber' are closed fully, and when you pull the trigger, it opens up like a set of lungs, creating vacuum, then the walls close again, but so do the intake valves. at this point, the air gets compressed to a tiny fraction of its size, then gets charged, and the barrel is opened, like an exhaust valve. these charged, compressed particles have nowhere to go except out, and, a small elecromagnetic pulse is used to give it an extra push, accelerating the blast towards its target. If you hold down the trigger, the walls don't have to close fully, as the heat helps it create a vacuum, so it keeps firing, and that's how it can sustain such a high ROF, because it doesn't have to move as far. This compressed charged air superheats any solid it comes into contact with, causing a concentrated explosion as the material is violently turned from solid to gas. In order to facilitate a high rate of fire, the BR-01 does not compress very much air, and therefore does not pack that much of a punch.
