RL-40 stun net launcher
The RL-40 Stun Net Launcher was a type of launcher that deployed stun nets used to capture prisoners without harming them. Believed to have been inspired by the Stokhli spray stick, the RL-40 deployed a stun net 2.5 meters in diameter which could achieve maximum range in less than half a second. Upon contact the net would deliver a paralyzing electrical shock until the target stopped moving. The intensity of the shock could also be varied, from a light charge able to subdue small game to a full charge which could kill a Human or paralyze a Gundark or Dewback.[1]
