''This model sports a dark walnut stock with blued steel hardware.''

The electrocoil blunderbuss looks much like a blunderbuss, save for the rounded steel ball and coiled copper tubing around the barrel. These mechanical parts function as a resonant transformer circuit, and when the device is powered by an [[Energy Cell (3.5e Equipment)|energy cell]] as a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]], the propelled iron pellets carry the charge to their target. De-powering the device is also a [[SRD:Free Actions|free action]].

The weapon holds 6 shots per case when fully loaded. As long as a shot remains in the case, the weapon can be reloaded with the user's off-hand as a free action. Loading a case of 6 shots is a [[SRD:Full-Round Actions|full-round action]] that provokes [[SRD:Attacks of Opportunity|attacks of opportunity]].

An operator can fire an electrocoil blunderbuss with one hand, but they must operate the weapon with two hands in order to use the reloading mechanism, and two hands must be used to load a new case of ammunition.
When powered, the device consumes 1 [[Energy Cell (3.5e Equipment)|energy cell]] per case of 6 shots. The cell may be changed in the same action as reloading a case of ammunition.

A [[Fusion Cell (3.5e Equipment)|fusion cell]] may be loaded into the weapon in place of using [[Energy Cell (3.5e Equipment)|energy cells]].

If non-conductive ammunition is used, the weapon does not carry the electrical charge and the base weapon damage becomes piercing only.

An electrocoil blunderbuss has only 5 [[SRD:Weapon Qualities#Range Increment|range increments]] instead of 10 for a projectile weapon.

An electrocoil blunderbuss does not work properly when submerged in liquid or in a vacuum.
