Production
The Mortra 20/07 was developed by Arkro Maravo shortly after the start of the 3rd TMIU War in the village of Yaaranue. The first version of the weapon was designed with a straight-pull bolt action. Arkro later recieved help from a number of other villagers in designing and producing a semi automatic variant which became the final design. The weapon was named the Mortra, which meant “killer” in Durukan (the native language of Yaaranue Village.) The design was later bought by the Cronan Military for $95,000 and was produced for military use. The designation “20/07” was added, 20 being that the 20th model produced was the one adopted and used for future copies and 7 being the number of people that contributed to its original development.
