Legionary Defense

Founded in 1973 A.D., USA.

Legionary Defense was created after the return of Anthony ‘Tonykill’ Winn after the Vietnam War, being his second company after Tonykill Firearms. Legionary went backrupt a couple of years later and was bought wholesale in 1976, then bought again in 1990.

The company was sold to Union Firearms’ owner at the time, Chimera Management. Due to their bankruptcy in 2020, Legionary was acquired by ES, and eventually spun off in 2058 into its own unique entity. The company’s portfolio is all about rifles, with assault, carbines, battle and snipers making up the entire lineup.

Weapons Featured in Operation Eclipse

LD ARS-2

Type: Assault Rifle

Combining designs is usually nothing new, but what happens when they work? You get the ARS lineup of rifles. Made for civilians only, the ARS made its way to paramilitary and even proper military forces due to its unique chambering system that allowed many different cartridges and STANAG magazines. Due to its sudden demand, Legionary Defense remade some ergonomics and released the ARS-2. While it failed to replace any military rifles, it was still popular enough to stay around.

LD UH-90 SAW

Type: MG

From the jungles of Southeast Asia, through the Sonoran desert and to modern Afghan and Russian incursions, the UH SAW refuses to retire, giving many weapons a run of its money and actually winning against them. Not only that but it is a movie star, cutting the bad guys with its 7.62x51mm NATO cartridge at 600 RPM like they were made out of paper. This version of the iconic weapon, the UH-90, comes with new ergonomics and more rails. While it is no longer in service with the US Military, it remains a mainstay with paramilitary forces that need a weapon that strikes fear into the enemy’s hearts.
