Cyber-gun

Cyber gun is a term that can mean any type of weapon used or built by Cybermen. However it most commonly refers to the hand held ultrasonic weapons used by Mondasian Cybermen

Design
The basic design of the cybergun consists of a silver metal tube approximately 18 inches long. The type of dle and grip has varied over time but generally they do not have protuding hadles and are intended to be wielded with both hands, although it is possible to fire them one handed.

Capabilities
The cyber gun fires a beam of ultrasonic energy which appears as blue concentric circles and produces a high pitched squeal. Exact range and power is unknown They have a devestating effect on humans, often one hit from a cybergun is enough to kill. They are also capable of inflicting damage to cybermen, and can kill a cyberman with repeated hits. They can damage physical objects but for large targets suck as armoured doors or protective domes, Cybermen prefer to use larger, laser based cannons, possibly due to cyberguns overheating with sustained use.
