Quick answer

The Blaze is a double-barreled break-action rifle chambered in .308 WIN. Its low recoil and dual-barrel setup make it strong at medium range, especially because it can fire both barrels together for heavy burst damage. It can also be sawed off with a Hacksaw, though doing so removes its iron sights and makes it far less practical without a Hunting Scope.
