Profile: Slugslinger is brave, and ready for a fight... except when the enemy is too close to him. He is an excellent sniper, and tries to make use of his ammunition. Slugslinger has the sight of a "two-headed eagle" as Slugslinger likes to call it. Although his vision is amazing, too many enemies on too many sides can cause him to not know who to fire at. Slugslinger is very observant when it comes to targeting, but as stated, sometimes it's hard for him to decide what to fire at next because his almost worrying obsession with conserving ammunition. He can't imagine the terrible situation he would be in if he was caught without his precious ammo.

Slugslinger is commonly teamed with Misfire, and more commonly Triggerhappy to keep that crazy out of trouble.

Abilities: Slugslinger has the vision of an eagle, and can even zoom his optics to see even further away.

His sniper rifle is one of the farthest-shooting sniper models in Cybertronian technology. It can shoot up to (in earth terms) 30 to 33 miles away, and combined with his zooming optics, can fire even more accurately than normal.

Slugslinger's shot-gun is nothing special, and he only uses it when an enemy is too close and he feels panicked.

His two revolvers are fascinating pieces of Cybertronian tech, and can hold a much larger ammo capacity than that of a normal revolver due to the extra ammo compartments that can replace themselves. They do take a heck of a good amount of time to reload though, so every shot counts.

Slugslinger's Bomber jet mode has the capacity for two pilots due to its overly-technical nature. This model is designed to have one pilot doing main flight, and one co-pilot to lock on targets to fire and to observe ground-level things. Each cockpit has the same tech in it, and if someone is skilled enough, they can fly it by themselves. However, since Slugslinger obviously is a genius at all of this, he can fly himself.

Weaknesses: Slugslinger is a coward. He can only fight when it is a safe distance away from his precious visage.

Slugslinger as previously stated is sometimes easily confused when there are too many targets to hit, and can freeze when panicked.
