Rifles, Inc. TO&E

Rifles, Inc is a mercenary unit from GURPS Traveller: Star Mercs. Originally a TL10 light infantry company, they have recently expanded to a battalion-sized unit with three additional companies of TL8 light infantry. They normally take low-tech security and urban garrison tickets where their lack of heavy weapons or vehicles is less of a problem.

Their badge is a pair of crossed ACRs.
