Dob's Infested Guns is a retail chain that was hostilely taken over by the Zerg.
Formally Dob's Guns, the store specialized in selling firearms to civilian, military, and paramilitary clientele. Some say the franchise could supply a backwater militia with enough arms to fight a small Protoss force to a standstill. Others implied that the products included nuclear material from black market channels.
During the ending months of the Brood War, Dob's Gun received a surge in popularity among the Fringe worlds. This popularity nearly rivaled some of the most powerful arms dealers, commercial and non-commercial. It got to the point where rumors and wild speculations bounced across the hypernet. One of the wildest being that there were modified Resoc devices in hidden rooms to brainwash/train civilians into sleeper agents and soldiers.
Somehow, rumor circulated that the franchise had acquired advanced alien artifacts that were neither zerg or protoss in origin. Soon after, zerg forces invaded any store bearing the name Dob's Guns. This caused business to collapse as investors quickly sold their shares to avoid any backlash of the franchise's loss.
Now, the stores just exist to grow hybrid weapons for infested terrans enhancing the zerg's forces.
