Freeze Gun

The Freeze Gun is a technology utilized by Federation Marines in Metroid: Other M. It is first seen during the battle with the ULF 27, where Commander Adam Malkovich authorizes the use of Freeze Guns midway during the battle to attack the beast's tentacles, freezing them and allowing Samus Aran to blast them with her Missiles. It may have some significance in later parts of the game. It seems to be the Federation Marine equivelant of Samus' Chozo-made Ice Beam.
