2047.07.26: Shinsei Industries Introduces New L+ Stick ModelShinsei Industries today unveiled their new LS1001 stick design which incorporates a gun into the shaft of the crosse. Previously, many players held the stick in one hand, and had a gun available for the other to use. Some pilots surveyed say they choose not to upgrade at this time, but will be watching how well the stick works in the hands of others.
