Not quite accurate. D is a samurai sword with a machine-gun
attached that also has one of these bad boys on the other end:

The problem is that it's many tools in one, some of which don't
work as well as they could together, and make it a complicated
tool to master (but extremely versatile when you do). It comes
with an instruction manual that tells you the function of each
different piece, but not how different pieces can be used
together to make things easier.
I'd say it's a prototype laser blaster that has been proven to
work. However, it isn't quite ready for mass deployment amongst
the troops, or acceptance with the brass.
