The Type-52 Mauler is used by the Jiralhanae as a handgun, although human military experts have classified it as being more of a handheld shotgun than anything else. The magazine holds 5 7.9mm metal bolts, which appear to be constantly kept at superheated temperatures before being fired. These bolts appear to fragment upon being ejected from the weapon, creating a scatter-shot effect reminiscent of human shotguns. Like all Jiralhanae weapons, the Mauler is equipped with a small blade underneath, making it a formidable melee weapon.

The Mauler first  saw use during the [[Battle of Gbraakon|Battle]] of [[Gbraakon]] on [[Doisac]], shortly after the Jiralhanae's [[ First Immolation|global war]].{{Ref/Reuse|vis}} After that, it became the favored weapon of Jiralhanae security forces, and would not be seen by humans until the [[Battle of Earth]].
