“We all knew there would be pulse rifles,” Neill Blomkamp wrote on Instagram. “Obviously. Now with added RIS” When he says “RIS” he means Rail Interface System, which is a generic term for attaching accessories to firearms.

The M41A Pulse Rifle first appeared in James Cameron’s 1986 film Aliens. It was the primary infantry weapon of the United States Colonial Marine Corps of the late 22nd century.
