The Dart Gun is a low powered one-handed personal firearm that stores and fires 12 darts. It will function in any environment, in or out of water.
The Dart Gun features the lowest price of any weapon, a one handed grip, and the fastest Snap fire rate of any weapon, eclipsed only by the auto-fire weapons. Unfortunately it has one severe weakness: very low damage. Even physically weak aliens like the Aquatoids will require a number of rounds before they succumb to the darts.
Though quite ineffective for most combat purposes, it can still be utilised as an early alternative to the Thermal Tazer for stunning aliens. While it still risks killing the subject, the lower damage allows for a more controlled application of damage as well as weapon inflicted Stun damage.
This weapon appears in Terror from the Deep. For the UFO: Enemy Unknown equivalent, refer to the Pistol.
