Sonic boom rifle

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

Sonic boom rifles are weapons of surprising delicacy for an Autobot as unsubtle as Fastlane. They're capable of emitting a soft sonic whisper, capable of pushing aside a falling leaf — or powerful enough to shatter solid steel. One imagines that Fastlane doesn't use the former setting very often.

If he can't beat you to death with his own arm, Apeface will blow out your audio receptors with his semi-automatic sonic boomer. He can't seem to adjust strength of his blasts the way Fastlane can, or he just doesn't bother taking it off of full-blast.
