The Hesh-pattern M38 MkII is a machine pistol variant of the Bolt Pistol. You know, a handgun-style machine gun?

Rare outside the ranks of the Adeptus Mechanicus, specifically those hailing from the shrouded Lathe Worlds of the Calixis Sector, the Hesh-pattern M38 MkII was never widely adopted by the Departmento Munitorum due to the temperamental nature of its Machine Spirit and/or mechanism in general, various maintenance difficulties beyond what is expected to go wrong in Bolt weaponry. Being too unreliable and complex is a big turn-off, after all. The M38 MkII almost seems as if it was designed to be used by individuals more knowledgeable of firearms than even those august members of the Imperial Guard who actually get to use such weapons – Space Marines other than Techmarines, maybe. Nevertheless, at least the Tech-Priests of the Lathes appreciate the weapon’s effectiveness. They do not seem to have the same trouble with its Machine Spirit as those less attuned to the mysteries of technology. They are Tech-priests, so it'll be surprising if they don't know how to use it. The MkII’s distinctive drum magazine allows for a higher rate of fire than other Bolt Pistols, but is also prone to more frequent malfunction. Perhaps because it is supposed to fire in fully automatic mode by design, the gun goes fidgety when it is fired semia-automatically, so it is recommended to not be stingy with the ammo when handling this weapon.

May or may not supposed to be/look-like a miniaturized [[Bolter#Maxim_Bolter|Maxim Bolter]].
