Corrosive slime-shooter
Everything about Skalor is gross. His general lack of hygiene. His dual crustation rifles. And even his Targetmaster mode, formed when he combines with his crustation rifles, is gross; it's a double-barreled corrosive slime-shooter, which... well, shoots corrosive slime.
Also, when Bomb-Burst can't drain his victim's fuel, he'll settle for pelting them with his own corrosive slime shooter.
Still fuzzy on the concept of stun, Finback also uses a metal-corroding stun rifle that fires thick, viscous underwater slime, capable of stunning his targets into melted heaps of slag. He should probably stick to this gun for his and Misfire's sakes.
Blot also has a slime gun, which in a similar fashion, coats his targets in corrosive slime that smells almost as bad as he does. It also makes one wonder if the prerequisite for using these guns is being insanely gross.
Fiction
Marvel The Transformers comics
In both modes, Blot uses a slime gun which fires a corrosive liquid that reacts with most metals to make them as soft and pliable as rubber. Blot's Universe profile
Bomb-Burst used his slimeshooter to destroy RAAT vehicles that barred the Decepticon Pretenders' path to Ethan Zachary's Alternate Reality headquarters. Pretender to the Throne!
Later, during a clash between Ratbat's Decepticons and Scorponok's forces in the Arctic, Bomb-Burst took down Ratbat himself with a stream of liquid corrosive acid but was prevented from finishing him off by the sudden arrival of the Seacons. Cold War!
