Swindle may buy and sell an arsenal's worth of weapons in a day, but he keeps an occasional piece of merchandise for himself. His scatter blaster fires a wide spray of explosive buckshot - perfect for keeping away dissatisfied customers.
Wildrider uses the similar scattershot gun, which he could've easily bought off of Swindle. If he shoots at anything, including small five story buildings in a fifty-square yard area, up to a 1/4 mile away, THE TERRORISTS WIN.
