The LAC-20 is a cut-down and slightly modified version of the ALAR-20, used
as a sub-machinegun for operations in enclosed spaces or for internal
security missions.  The LAC-20 was developed by the Saxean Government
Armaments Works for internal security use by Saxean Army and Interior
Ministry Militia. The weapon is also popular with Saxean Military
Counterintelligence, the 'secret police' arm of the government.  Interior
Ministry troops commonly use rubber bullets for riot control applications.

SGAW plans to market the LAC-20 for export.  Markets should not be too hard
to find, especially amongst the more totalitarian worlds and nations in the
Commonwealth.
