====Godwyn Pattern====
The model currently used by most [[Firstborn]] [[Space Marines]] is designated the '''Astartes Mk Vb Godwyn pattern'''. The Godwyn-pattern bolter has a built-in ammo counter and uses a Sinister/Dexter locking mechanism with a sickle-shaped magazine carrying 30 rounds.{{Fn|7b}} It fires the standard Astartes .75 calibre bolt, composed of a diamantine tip, depleted deuterium core and mass-reactive detonator, typically in bursts of four rounds.{{Fn|7a}} Other features include a palm-print sensor for genetic identification,{{Fn|15a}} as well as an integral targeter that links with the autosenses in the Marine's helmet for superior accuracy.{{Fn|22}} It can also be upgraded with weapon accessories such as the [[M40 Targeting System]].
Other Godwyn patterns include the '''Astartes Mk IIIa Godwyn Pattern''', an older version, still used by the [[Dark Angels]] [[Chapter]].{{Fn|5}}
