Torque rifle

The torque rifle is a weapon from the Generation 1 continuity family.

I self-narrate like this, too. "That fist -- smashing my nose in --"

The torque rifle is Air Raid's weapon of choice. Any object struck with its beam is subject to 80,000 psi of rotational force. Needless to say, most materials can't take the pressure.

Despite its name, it's really more of a pistol than a rifle.
