Repeater Shanks are a unique model of Shank belonging to the House of Wolves. In place of a standard Shank's weaponry, these Shanks have a built-in Repeater mini-gun, greatly increasing their firepower. During the Wolf Rebellion a group of powerful Repeater Shanks were located in the N/Gen Branch on Venus, where they were subsequently dismantled by Guardians by order of the Queen's Wrath, Petra Venj.[2] They were also utilized by the Devil Splicers during the SIVA Crisis. However, Repeater Shanks would become discontinued after the events of SIVA Crisis, reasons unknown.
