To Ozei Ruousha,

Good day to you, M. Ruousha. I am Simon Giraud, and I head the spacecraft engineering department at ALG's Research and Development Division.
It is atypical for buyers to seek weapons such as the Cruche-de-Fer in used condition unless their budget is very tight indeed, since models of new manufacture are quite inexpensive and widely available. Most of our salvaged examples are thus used as parts spares, or go to tinkerers and collectors of specific variations.

But your reasoning does make sense, and we can provide documentation of origin and proof of purchase for salvaged weapons for you to provide to the relevant authorities - how much weight this will carry, I can make no guarantees for. My employer's own history with the Kingdom of Bretonia is fraught with difficulties, to put it mildly.

I have surveyed our inventory at Briancon and identified four good condition examples of the type you seek in a single source batch, which we would be happy to reserve for your purchase. You express interest in the story, a curiosity naturally shared among our own salvagers given our occupation, so I will reconstruct what we know: The weapons were salvaged from a Hawk we located and retrieved in the outskirts of the system in 834-11. The vessel was undamaged and the reasons for its abandonment are unclear; there may have been software issues that we cannot trace, as its electronics were wiped. What is remarkable is that sundries found aboard the ship date at the latest to 818 A.S. As it is a ship of Sirius manufacture, this would have made it among the earliest to breach the minefield - unless the pilot carried exclusively heavily aged supplies with them. This makes it particularly unusual that they were also using weaponry of Gallic manufacture.

Who were they and what was their fate? A mystery likely never to be solved, but if you wish to bring their armaments to new purpose, please visit us at Briancon.

Kind regards,
Simon Giraud
R&D Division
ALG
