How real are Apex Legends Weapons in real live?

L-StarStands for (Lastimosa Armory Energy Machine Gun). It is a cyclic particle acceleration weapon developed by Lastimosa Armory. Thanks to a small oscillating magnetic field generator, L-STAR can unleash a series of charged plasma pulses with high velocity. Charged particles can corrode shields and melt dense materials with prolonged exposure. So you've got a Hadron Collider-like thing in your hands.Due to high temperatures created by the particle accelerator, prolonged firing starts to melt the core of the generator. Even in 2727 (which is the year of Apex action) no effective way to remove heat from the core sufficiently to be able to shoot for a long time was invented. Although this is actually a gameplay feature so as not to break the balance of the game. But still, this weapon is a favorite among players providing the apex ranked boost. If the cannon really uses plasma then I would say the engineers at Lastimosa Armory have done a pretty good job as to maintain the plasma's state it has to be around 100 million degrees centigrade the whole time it is fired until it hits the target. And that would simply vaporize any existing material on contact. It is true that the design could also use the so-called cold fusion plasma, it is already about room temperature, which is quite possible with the current technological development of the Apex universe.

Next, we will have several cannons at once, because they all work on the same principle is Havoc, Volt, Devotion.All these weapons are more like a hybrid of a firearm and a railgun, the former uses powder gases to disperse the ammunition, while the railgun does it with the help of a magnetic field that pushes the ammunition out of the barrel. To put it simply, here we are accelerating the ammunition itself, not the particles. Here's how it works, using the Volt as an example. First, the bullet is accelerated by conventional powder gases and then it is further accelerated by a magnetic field. The only thing is that the Volt probably shoots highly electrified bullets like a shocker, which gives it that electric effect when fired.In general, I think it's just a little weird that the three above mentioned guns are energy class, but in fact, they should rather be attributed to the firearms, or to be more accurate to the hybrid, that is, firearms and energy (fire-rail) weapons, which equally uses both conventional bullets and electromagnetic energy to accelerate the ammunition.

The next Peacekeeper weapon.Why is it separate? And not together with the above three guns? It works on the principle of a gauss gun, yes the one in stalker. Don't confuse it with the Railgun, they have different working principles. The gauss also uses electromagnetism to accelerate the projectile, but instead of rails, it's magnetic coils. It looks a lot like a gauss cannon. Very interesting that the gauss accelerator was added to the shotgun, it gave him an interesting advantage in the form of excellent accuracy at medium to long-range. Yes, and it can still be used as a traditional shotgun at close range. The idea is good!

Charge RifleThe wiki says it's a ray gun, which means it's essentially a laser, which is what we see in the apex. Let me quickly remind you what a laser is. Otherwise known as an optical quantum generator, it is a device designed to convert electrical, thermal, and other types of energy into a narrow beam of radiation, i.e. a beam weapon may not necessarily only look like a narrow beam of light, it could be almost any electromagnetic radiation, including radiation, heat, plasma, etc. The weapon is fine, but right now with the current technology, we will not make such a torch as a charge rifle, as it would require many many times more energy than even the most powerful lasers use now. It would literally have to connect our multicooker to a nuclear reactor.
