Carmine-Crafted Blessing-Tipped Rifle

"Oh, my crumbles! A genuine Carmine-Crafted Blessing-Tipped Rifle! How... How in the fuck did he get one of these?!"

- Moxxie, upon seeing the rifle

Carmine-Crafted Blessing-Tipped Rifles are notoriously powerful angelic weapons used to kill demons of a high status in Hell.

Description
Similar in appearance to a sniper rifle, the main body is dark purple or burgundy in color with many light pink engravings with white outlines. The scope has a red underside and lens, with the barrel having pink and red spots located near the tip.

It is unknown exactly how the weapon operates, nor if the uniqueness of the weapon comes from the firearm itself, the bullets loaded into it, or a combination thereof.

It has only been witnessed to fire a single time, striking a wall behind a target. The weapon does not exhibit any unique characteristics in terms of the sound the weapon produces or the visual appearance of the projectile when fired. It is unknown if the weapon is a single-shot, semi-auto or automatic firearm, however Moxxie is shown to have continued to aim the weapon at his intended target after firing a single round, suggesting the weapon holds multiple bullets inside of it.

Background
While they have not been seen to strike a living target, however both Moxxie and Striker have confirmed that the rifle is powerful enough to kill high ranking demons, including the Ars Goetia and other demons of royal status. Because of this deadly nature, and the surprise exhibited by Moxxie at the weapon's discovery, it is presumed that not many are in circulation or are available.

One was seen in the possession of Striker when he attempted to kill Stolas during the Harvest Moon Festival; due to him fleeing after the failed assassination without trying to retrieve the weapon, it is unknown whether the rifle is now in possession of I.M.P or not.

Trivia

 * The rifles appear to function similar to bolt action hunting rifles, such as the Anschütz .22 LR.
 * This weapon may share similarities with heavenly made angelic weapons. While the angelic weapons are known to be able to kill sinners, it is unknown if it shares the demonic royalty killing capability of the carmine rifle.
 * The weapon has the words "Carmine-Crafted" in it's name, part of which is shared with the overlord Carmilla Carmine who is a dealer of weapons including those that are influenced/affiliated with the discarded angelic weapons. This heavily implies that the weapon was created by and named after Carmilla.
