Notes
- The Great Bear grenade rifle takes its texture and mesh from the scorpion rifle, a cut weapon from Old World Blues. It would have fired miniature blue robo-scorpions.
- This weapon is heavier than the Red Victory grenade rifle but makes up for it by doing more contact damage with its grenades.
- This weapon is not affected by Grunt.
Behind the scenes
The Great Bear grenade rifle is based on the real world M79,[1] a U.S. grenade launcher from the early sixties.
