'''Deffguns''' are heavy [[Ork]] weapons, fine examples of the [[Mek]]'s craft that are made from all kinds of materials, mainly scavenged heavy weaponry of other races. Deffguns are so large they must be mounted on a special firing rig strapped to to an Ork's broad shoulders. No man could hope to fit into a Deffgun's rig without heavy augmetics or thick slabs of vat-grown muscle. This cumbersome rig is needed to absorb bone-breaking recoil each time the Deffgun is fired. {{Cite this}}
They fire dakka of extremely high calibre, rounds which easily smash bikes and reliably penetrate transports' armour. Given their variable origins they may vary tremendously in properties and appearance, but a typical Deffgun is similar to an [[Imperial]] [[Autocannon]], although much less predictable. {{Cite this}}
Meks often make some adjustments to the weapon during its construction - from viewfinders to recoil compensators or attached [[Rokkit]]s and searchlights so no two Deffguns look the same, but two things are certain - it will surely deafen its owner and spell a violent death to anyone in its crosshairs.{{Fn|1}}{{Fn|2a}}
