The F-85b was HerrBobo INC's first attempt at wepon development. The new weapon had some radical design features. The weapon was first and foremost a sniper rifle but was also fitted with the actions of a shotgun. The theory was that if the user got into close combat he/she could switch to the shotgun mode. This was the main proble with the weapon; the combined rifle/shotgun housing was just too complicated and often jammed. It was also too long and too heavy, some 4 foot long! While quite accurate as a rifle, many troops did not like that the scope was off center to accommodate the shotgun clip. After some 286 units the type was discontinued.
During the Fashoda conflict HerrBobo INC saw a nich in the market for a cheap, small, high power pistol. The result of this was the MBP-4. It was essentially a 4 barreled gatling pistol. The barrles had such a high rate of fire that three drum mags were needed to allow an kind of prolonged fire. It was found quickly that these mags not only added alot of weight but also made the gun have a higher center of gravity. All this combined gave the MBP-4 massive recoil. Some attempts to counter this were made in the shape of a foregrip and two laser pointers, will little results. If the F-85b was seen as some what of a failure the MBP-4 was a total failure. It was soon given the name "Sky-Sprayer" by the troops that used it and was often droped in favour of enemy weapons. By the 3rd year of the conflict it had become a propaganda weapon.
