"The Type 17 is an overweight cousin of the Mauser C96, chambered in .45 ACP and capable of accepting up to 10 rounds in its internal, stripper clip-loaded magazine. It once gained notoriety in early Era 7 for being a higher-capacity alternative to the 1911, leading to several towns adopting it alongside the Thompson for their Town Security personnel, in an attempt to harmonize logistics. Although newer and more modern weapons are available these days, the Type 17 remains a classy and visually distinctive firearm that is sure to get you noticed."
