A modification kit for an Accelerator Rifle to allow you to vary the projectile speed down to a very modest amount. The rifle must be modified by someone who has Mechanical and Electronics. It adds a dial on the side that is wired into the actuator circuitry to current limit the firing charge.
A box with a modification kit which attaches to the barrel of an Accelerator Rifle (no skill required) which allows a projectile which will trail monofilament behind it out to 100m and whose head is magnetic and adhesive. This basically allows you to fire a boarding line to a ship with which you have matched vectors. Either the magnetic head or the instant-set adhesive beads on the head are sufficient to set the line for careful traverse with an powered ascender handle that comes with the kid. If both of the attachment methods succeed, its rock solid. Variations in the maneuvering or a poor match of vectors can tear the line loose (best used for ships with no maneuver capability or that are friendly).
A poster with a scantily clad sophont holding an FGMP... the cheesy text says "My Gun Is Huge!".
A cleaning kit for slug-throwers. It should include a pull through rod, cleaning solution, cleaning rags, a scourer for working baked on stuff, a brass brush to be attached to the rod for barrel cleaning, and some replacement springs. The pull through rod is missing. The spare springs may not be the right weight and size.
