Background & Other Details:

An Anti-B.O.W. developed by Umbrella Inc's weapon R&D sector to handle B.O.W.s and test animals safely, and potentially destroy them when exposed with enough voltage. The Spark Shot is a stun gun that excels at dealing high damage to enemies with a drawback of having to charge each shot. By default, one zap to a low tier enemy will stun them in place, which allows the player to run past them if necessary. There is also a model of Spark-Shot that does not utilize ammunition but solely relies on short wave arcs of energy that flies from its capacitors- which at the cost of range has a higher damage output and does not require the user to charge the electrical needles between the wires connected to the needles and the rifle itself.
