Mag put away that bullpup assault rifle happily before controlling his urge to get another hunting rifle for free.
One simply cannot wish for free stuff all the time.
No matter how he saw it, gaining such a powerful and technological assault rifle by giving Xi a free lifetime of red braised pork card was so worth it.
Of course, Xi was sure he wouldn't go around with this assault rifle when she gave him it.
After all, it was an assault rifle that she didn't want. It couldn't compare to his sword.
As for replicating it.
Do you think the Elder Things' tens of thousands of years of technology advancement is a joke?
Given the Norland Continent's recent entry into the Age of Steam, if they wanted to replicate this assault rifle, they couldn't even analyze its materials without a few hundred years.
Xi also thought to herself, "It's a great deal!"
