[ 3451. The latest he's heard here thus far was somewhere around 2500, which is still ancient to him, but at least the ship is pretty close to the technology he's used to, even if his world didn't do much in the way of interstellar travel.
taking the gun, he's careful with it, as if it's as delicate as an antique would be, despite it's relative age. hand move over the pieces of it, picking up all the scratches and dents, but it's easy to see how well taken care of it is other than weathering. andyr's moving pieces on it as he talks, with a kind of familiarity that speaks of having cleaned guns with his father before - granted, while the theory's mostly the same, the mechanisms have vastly changed. ]
Understatement. I could probably get enough to buy a pent house selling something like this. [ well, he couldn't, because he has zero rights as a person, but if he were normal, he could. ]
You know, traditional ammunition like that was phased out five or six centuries back. Some time before the US separation wars broke out. We use thermal clips now, with an internal accelerator. [ he's commenting idly, as he inspects the gun, clearly very curious. ] And there's plasma rifles too, but unless there's mechs on the field, that's just overkill.
