The "M41A Pulse Rifle" is a fictional firearm invented for the world of Alien. It uses a 100 round magazine loaded with 10x24mm, explosive tip, caseless, light amour piercing rounds, although supposedly downloaded to 95 to prevent stoppages. It is fitted with an underslung pump-action 4 shot 30mm grenade launcher.
